TOP FIFTEEN--cast your vote today.

Who knew that an innocent picture of some angels and their bikes in the clouds would inspire such captions? Rob, Stacy, Jessica, Tricia, John, etc., I think that's just a wrinkle in his robe…And I swear I certainly didn't notice it until ROB brought it up.  Then, of course, after that, I couldn't stop noticing…It's the fish/guy in the bag all over again. Beauty/Art/the wrinkle is indeed in the eye of the beholder. Regardless, once again, the captions are hysterical.  I was laughing and laughing at some of these gems.  However, I fear that despite my good intentions, (paving the proverbial road to Hell) this cartoon may not have been the very best choice during Lent. Sorry. I hadn't anticipated quite so many Hell comments.  (or ANY viagra ones) Once again, I may be leading you all into eternal damnation.  Sorry about that, but I have to admit, the captions this round have been very Lentertaining.  I had a tough, tough time choosing the TOP TEN, so of course, I had to expand the pool.  I really couldn't decide and it's getting late, so here are the TOP FIFTEEN--I know, I know--it's a cop out, but honestly, I had 22 that I loved more than my own family. (John's "Eternal Rest, My All", Marie's Mick Jagger one, Linda's 'I don't know how to ride a bike", Rob's "messenger of God', Jessica's 'Stop stealing my look!" and the hair one, too) But after running all the comments through the final filter of placing it under the actual cartoon, I was able to eliminate a few of them.

.

"Did you take the stairway to heaven or the ozone layer?"            Judy

"Life would have been so much easier if we just told people we were gay!"       Jessica


"I had cancer. You?"
"I voted too many times for Judy…"                    
Marie Pitt Payne

"Think we gave Him a big enough head start?"            Linda

"We never should have changed Lent to Lentertainment."       Joann

"This is going to have to do until Tony Horton kicks it and we can start P90X"…     Jan

"My bike seat is uncomfortable up here too, so I tried Viagra. Didn't help".      Stacy

"Jeez is that a spoke or are you glad to see me?"         Tricia

"I'm suppose to call my doctor if it lasts more than 4 hours, who do I call if it lasts for eternity?"    Rob

"I heard that in the Protestant section they get around on roller skates."          Ginny

"Yea, we're in purgatory. You get a Segway in heaven and a unicycle in hell! "
         Sue E.            (l love this one) 

"WTF? I thought hills were hell?"              John

"Hey Rob, now that our wives have killed us for spending so much time on that damn blog, do we still get to caption in heaven?"        John  (extremely well played) 

"Yup. I've looked at clouds from both sides now."          Linda

"For the record, I always thought we were asses for riding down Sheridan on Sunday mornings like we owned the road".  Rob   (I can relate to this one…every single Sunday) 


Time to vote--Let's make something special happen here.  Let's see if the rest of the field combined can beat Judy in the voting.  (In keeping with the Masters tradition of taking the favorite against the field, I propose that for this voting session, I will take Judy and you all will get the rest of the field--fyi--The Masters starts tomorrow) .

Don't let me down, Judy.  Keep your voting friends happy please. Voting closes at 7pm tomorrow night.  That's right--7pm.  I've shortened the voting a bit because I want to make sure Karla gets a full night's sleep. (and me, too)  I've given you the best I've got, now you all go get some votes.
