 | February 11, 2008 - Cartoon Caption Contest # 133 | | | |
Each week, the New Yorker magazine provides a cartoon in need of a caption. There's an official contest on the New Yorker website (see link below) and we'll be having our own unofficial extra credit contests here.
Your job is to think of the perfect, pithy (look it up) caption for this cartoon. Post it on the blog, read others' ideas, and then we'll vote. Winners get extra credit, of course.
Visit this link to see previous cartoon captions and winning ideas.
