The challenge was to take the top 3
most
emailed photos on yahoo and create a hopefully amusing story about
the sequence. I reserve the right to refuse a disturbing picture, this includes any pictures of celine dion.
Please feel free to add alternative captions if you can or comments if you can't.

<reddman> WHAT did we do to deserve THIS?? Thank you Mort!!!
<mypalmike> That gumby isn't exactly small.
<Lauren> Just so the rest of you monkies know what sorts of captioning opportunities we are missing while Mort is ... missing, I thought I'd share three. Maybe we can get a captioning contest going on here,
Photo 2: I felt like somebody's painted pony (bet you were thinking I would make another ASS caption here.)
Photo 3: But still I won "Breast in Show."
<reddman> we want Mort
<Kumiho> Photo one: No matter how I dress I always feel like a heifer in fishnet stockings. Photo two: I've tried all the fad diets, South Beach, Atkins, even that crazy Chinese flower petal diet. Photo three: But it doesn't make any diiference I'll never slim down enough to capture the fickle love of Tzu Tzan Li the Dragonlady.
Okay, not nearly as funny as yours Lauren.
<Allen> 1: Check out the teats on this one. Udderly gorgeous. 2: Yeah, some chicks really overdo it with the makeup. 3: I agree, but sometimes it really gets me hot if it's done just right.

Got Milk?
<josh > POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
<josh > can you tell me what this is all about
<JP> Now, far be it from me to step on anyone's toes, but is there anyone here web-literate enough who has the time to take over Mort's slack? By that, I mean, create MEPopia anew through terraforming? Or by designing a site just like this one?
<reddman> not me....I'm just a web slacking strap hanger on monkey....
<Kumiho> And I'm the poster-child for HTML For Dummies, so no, can't help you there.
<mypalmike> I've thought of doing it. I even have webhosting with php and mysql...
<mypalmike> The only drawback would be the shear amount of bandwidth Allen sends to the site would be costly.
<mypalmike> OK, OK. I put up a very early alpha version of my caption contest on www.mypalmike.com. :)
<Allen> Everyone else is using more bandwidth to look at my captions than I use to post them. I appreciate the attention and love I get, not to mention the immense respect for being a prolific MEPlander, but the few bytes of text I publish per week is not going to break anyone. I could easily fit all the captions I've made thusfar on a since Commodore 64 floppy diskette, so please calm thyselves. Love and kisses... -Allen
<JP> OK, my caption is:
"Hello, kids! Smoke crack!"
www.mypalmike.com RULEZ! :)
<Kumiho> A very early version. My caption ''You'll let me stick it where?''
<3Suns> Ike, does it have perl?
<mypalmike> I don't believe it has mod_perl. But evenif it did, egads, I hate perl. :)
<mypalmike> Allen, I was totally kidding! Your captions are indeed enjoyed by all here!
<mypalmike> Kumiho - that's just sick. I think.
<mypalmike> Hey, at the top of msn.com, there's this random "click here" thing that says "Instant answer: What's an axolotl?". Wacky.
<mypalmike> OK, www.mypalmike.com is vaguely functional. Rough edges abound.
<Kumiho> ::pouts:: Okay, so when Elvis does it it's crass, but when I make a crack about sex it's sick? Why can't I just get called crass?
<JP> ::snif:: nobody ever calls me sick or crass... nobody even calls me..
<Allen> The posts at www.mypalmike.com are just plain sick...thank you very much. Next show at 10 o'clock.
<Mort> I could set some code so that someone else could update the images. Of course you should all fight over who that should be. That would be the best solution I think.
<Carol stopping by> For something completely different, there is the New Yorker Cartoon Anti-Caption Contest, where the aim is to write the worst caption for this week's actual contest cartoon.
<Carol stopping by> Oops, that didn't work sorry: ...radosh.net...
<mypalmike> Apparently, the New Yorker has an actual captioning contest...
