Caption Contest

Wednesday April 30, 2008
This contest is now closed to new entries. To vote for one of the six judges' choices, click here.

Okay, gentle readers, here's the deal. Post your best caption for this photo in the comments section below. I'll check back later and select my favorites among the suggested captions and post a poll for voting. The voting will last for a yet to be determined date and time.

The author of the winning caption will not necessarily be flooded with fame and fortune, but will have bragging rights to whomever they want to tell. You may click on the thumbnail picture above to see a full-size picture and to learn more about this kitten.

Sound like a plan?
