Give me your best shot.  I am not sure what the winner will get yet, but I will figure something out that will either be great, or really embarrassing. 

Judging will be done by me in a most subjective and unfair way.

Good luck!

“Don’t Jump! Think of the Kids!”

Xavier Emmanuelle September 19, 2008 at 4:59 pm

“Common goat experiences a particularly strong breeze”

(This might only make sense if you’re from Canada and have been to the maritimes…)

The best leaves are always just out of reach.

“I don’t think it’s going out on a limb here to say that I’d rather be a llama right now…”

Xavier Emmanuelle September 19, 2008 at 5:25 pm

Oh wait, wait, I’ve thought of a better version:

“Common goat finds himself in a sticky situation after a particularly strong breeze.”

(Still probably a uniquely Canadian joke, but now at least it’s got a pun in it)

No, I don’t want to be in your taco salad tonight!

Guess this explains why tomtom one is no longer available

Does the tree got you goat?
Or is that a billy club growing out of his ear?

Michelle DeIrish September 20, 2008 at 12:01 am

FWIW, I’d just like to throw my vote in for the “Don’t Jump! Think of the Kids!” caption. Hilarious.

Brenda September 20, 2008 at 4:58 am

OK, for the over-40 crowd: “Billy, don’t be a hero…” (I can hear you humming…)

It was a beautiful day and the sky was clear. As Torgo climbed a tree to survey the grasslands of his forefathers, he thought to himself – “I take care of the place while the Master is away.”

Bruce September 20, 2008 at 12:25 pm

Because of the prolonged drought, the cow tree fruit was too small and deformed to harvest for market.

From the Indian angle- ‘Main kood jaoonga, Basanti!’

[ 'I will jump, Basanti!' From the all-time classic movie, Sholay, where the drunk protagonist threatens to jump to his death if the beautiful Basanti does not reciprocate his love. You tube link with english subtitles- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKarznv4JxM ]

“I’m not going out on a limb…what the?”

“I’m not coming down until after the election. Could you toss up my lipstick?”

has my vote…made me laugh out loud!

He knew what his mom would say, “I don’t care what all of the other kids are doing,” but he just could not help himself. Besides, he would just chew and spit the leaves, he wouldn’t swallow.

“I am going to goat out on a limb and say this is a bad idea”

Dr. Dredd September 21, 2008 at 1:00 pm

Whoa. I knew I should of taken that left turn at Albuquerque!

(Bugs Bunny, anyone…)

littleoldladyinashoe September 21, 2008 at 5:34 pm

I think I can…I think I can..I think I can…uhhh, now how do I turn around again?

Coming from someone who has goats that do this very thing.

Peggikaye September 21, 2008 at 6:01 pm

This is what I get for using algebra equations for mapping the route….

Peggikaye September 21, 2008 at 6:01 pm

yes, I know how bad that is, but I’ve been working on algebra all day and couldn’t resist ..

Mary September 22, 2008 at 12:51 am

I think something’s wrong with my GPS!

Robert September 22, 2008 at 1:02 am

“my owner tied me to this branch,
and then fell off the branch, rats….”

a solitary walk on the goat path, literally! LOL

Brenda September 22, 2008 at 2:22 am

Uh, Mary? Would ‘GPS’ by any chance stand for ‘Goat Positioning System’?

Ken O. September 22, 2008 at 9:33 am

They said there was Spaghetti up here. (from very old BBC April Fool joke).

Manya Arond-Thomas September 22, 2008 at 1:53 pm

Oops….who knew? While Wall St. thought it was flying high, it was way out on a limb.

Happy Hospitalist September 22, 2008 at 2:29 pm

Nelly has never been the same since she ate that goat meat sandwhich

Laikaspoetnik September 22, 2008 at 4:29 pm

Well dad, who said we were related to Capricorns? $%@@*($@~!….

Laikaspoetnik September 23, 2008 at 3:02 am

But there I was, I was taken to a place, the base of the three kings
I stood high upon a three top, naked to the world
In front of every kind of girl, there was
black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones…

The sky is the limit!

Laikaspoetnik September 23, 2008 at 3:14 am

Somebody told me there was free Taco Salad here, but for the life of me, I can’t find it

I am not clever enough for a caption. The cartoon does provoke a thought though: This is what a single-payer health care system will look like.

Marnee September 23, 2008 at 12:02 pm

Less than five minutes into the photo shoot, Randall began to regret booking the 2009 “Motivational Animal Puns” calendar job.

EEJ September 23, 2008 at 3:30 pm

Why is it that Zippy always gets the exotic locales?

Muffy September 23, 2008 at 4:37 pm

Is this the waiting room? If so, where are all the llamas?

some dude named steevo September 23, 2008 at 6:39 pm

My caption above might need a little explaining. To repeat it:

It was a beautiful day and the sky was clear. As Torgo climbed a tree to survey the grasslands of his forefathers, he thought to himself – “I take care of the place while the Master is away.”

In order to understand this, you will have to watch the movie “Manos: hands of fate.” Which is widely regarded as the worst movie of all time. Torgo is a cult figure and servant of the master. Plus he is half human/half goat satyr, but in the movie he just looks deformed. It is a great movie, I recommend the MST3K version.
