| Book Give-away: Caption Me |
THANKS to everyone who contributed their captions. After much deliberation, a winner was chosen late last night. The winner is J. Eric Lewis, whose winning caption can be found where captions belong, directly below the picture. Eric, if you will email me your mailing address, I‘ll get the book out to you pronto.
I’ve got a stack of books I’ve been meaning to give away, but I keep forgetting to remember to not forget to do it; so today I’m giving one away. I’ve been trying, without much success, to think of creative and fun ways to select winners. I don’t know how well today’s contest qualifies in that way, but in the end, someone will get a book.
Here’s what you do: caption the following handsome image of yours truly. A panel of unbiased judges (seriously — not just me) will choose their favorite caption. The winner gets a book. And that book is The Truth of the Cross by R. C. Sproul. I’ll leave it open for a week, and update this post next Monday with the winner.
So here you go — caption me.
The winning caption:
“Good. Now, where is that bowl and those fiddlers?”
(I don‘t get it)

Aren’t I pretentious?

I've got the book, so don't enter me into the contest. But I can't pass up this opportunity to poke fun.
"Why is it called a Parkway if we're not allowed to park on it?"

David recalled with a certain smugness his exact wording:
"Well, If I -am- wrong, I will give up cigarettes forever!"
Tim Ashcraft
"If I'd just lose the beard, I'd pass for CS Lewis... Nah, I'd rather be Spurgeon."

Tobacco! Better your house than mine, saith she. That little remark may not win a lot of prizes in a man's world, but perhaps if the Mrs. is in on the voting, just perhaps, I may have a chance!

When I was your age, I walked 3 miles in the snow to get to school.
Gerald
Hmmmm, a counter-clockwise spiral. Is there meaning in that?

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I am relaxing. Why do you ask?"

"Too bad no one is around to share that one with ..."

"Good. Now, where is that bowl and those fiddlers?"

Put that in your pipe and smoke it!
OR
Manly Aromatherapy!
OR
"You shall make of these an incense, a compound...pure, and holy. In every place incense shall be offered to My name."
AND finally
"For my days are consumed like smoke, And my bones are burned like a hearth."
Dave B.
I like:
"I wonder if anyone will notice I forgot to actually put any tobacco in this pipe."
or
"Ha,ha, Arminius would say that this tobacco chose to get in my pipe... how humurous!"
or
"I wonder exactly how much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"
Semper fi
Daniel
" so then I says, 'Oh yeah? ...<leans back and assumes THE POSE™> ... Make me!'"
Brother Hank
I've already got the book too (probably the same way you did :),
but I couldn't resist either:
"Nothing like the yellow-glow of a house fire to make a man want to smoke..."
Yeehaw!
