THIS WEEK'S CARTOON

tarzancolor.jpg

Send your entries to jokesonyou@news-record.com

Welcome to the News & Record's "Jokes on You" page. Each week I'll post the new cartoon for your caption consideration (see above) and post the previous week's cartoon, the winning entries and all the other entries (see below). I will also try to talk a little about what I liked about the captions I chose and why I thought they worked. Feel free to post comments and ask questions. And remember, this is for entertainment purposes only, so please, no wagering.

LAST WEEK'S WINNER
So, whadda ya think of my selections? Agree? Disagree? Let me know what you think.
Leave a comment. Tell me your pick. Tell me why the ones I picked stink. Or, if you must, tell me how brilliant my choices are.

This is one of those weeks where every judge picked a different cartoon. When that happens, I am the tie-breaker. One of our criteria for picking a winner is how close the caption sticks to the subject matter. We got a lot of amusing captions (“tastes like chicken” frog licking, secretions, etc.) that didn’t really match the subject at hand: The Princess kissing the frog. Don’t get me wrong, these were funny, but off the real subject. Better still were the slightly risqué ones we got (I’m looking at you, Bob Beitzel), but decided we shouldn’t print. Fortunately, that’s why we have the blog.

WINNER
“We just met and you're already trying to change me.”
Tom Norman, Greensboro

BEST CAPTION THAT GOT LOST IN A TIME-WARP
