Winner: Cool caption crafting contest
January 4th, 2010 | by Sol |Happy New Year Everyone!
A week before Christmas I posted a contest asking folks to come up with the best caption for this picture (click to enlarge.)

Well, I got 63 submissions and I had the tough job of picking the one I liked most. What I did was read each caption and mentally note how hard I laughed. Scientific approach, wasn’t it?
I laughed hardest at JJC’s submission so he or she gets the $20 Amazon gift card:
