Pick one of mine, or add your own!

Warming up for "Here's the Hands, Here's the Steeple"...

"As you can see, I prefer not to dirty my hands with New Orleans..."


(ducks)

 

[fryke]

Why duck? The whole world's in the dilemma. Do we laugh at Bush's incompetence or cry about the tragedy it means for the people hurt by it...

 

[Satcomer]

I just washed my hands of the responsibility and there were no towels.

Thanks, fryke.

Basically, I cringed when I wondered whether or not my caption would be taken the right way!

I voted for the first choice as I happened to receive this pic that shows the fish...

 

[quiksan]

it's not a very good photoshopped image. but at first glance you go, "whaaaaa?"

 

[brianleahy]

Very amusing fish pic!

 

[aicul]

he actually got a girlfriend?

 

[sirstaunch]

"... and they were that big"

sorry Monica

 

[brianleahy]

As Henry Kissinger said, "Power is an aphrodisiac." And Kissinger makes look Georgy-boy look like Tom Cruise.

He's always had money too, that helps...

 

[BlackFlag]

I think he's trying to demonstrate how the Iraqis are "embracing freedom".

His arms don't quite look right: it's the way his upper arms go straight down but then from the elbows onwards there is activity. It reminds me of the way The Muppets acted (see the attachment).

Bush. Muppet. Muppet. Bush. Hmmm, I think I'm on to something...

As for the second picture: maybe the New Orleans relief effort will be based around the old saying "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for life.".

"It's OK folks - these guys don't need buses out of here: they just need a fishing rod and they'll be juuuust fine."

 

[brianleahy]

Of course, give a man a fish caught in the flooded streets of New Orleans, and he'll probably die of dysentery...

 

[bbloke]

Hehehe...

Welcome, BlackFlag!

 

[brianleahy]

"... and they were that big"

Kinda what I had in mind with poll choice #3.

And #2 is along the lines of "it IS this big..."

Hi BlackFlag!

Excellent, m8 – we need more good British cynicism! Errr… which bit of Eng-er-land?

Hi bbloke.

I'm going home.

Hello Captain Quark!

I've moved about a little bit in my short little life, but I'm currently in Cambridge.

I may not be able to contribute much with the computing posts, but I'll always be here to be sarcastic and just generally unhelpful.

Hi bbloke.

I'm going home.

Are those two statements linked?

 

[bbloke]

Hi CaptainQuark, good to see you around.

I'm sure you'll find plenty of the sought-after cynicism in the caption-related threads!

Are those two statements linked?

Oi, Flag, less of that sarcasm and general unhelpfulness!
