Caption contest
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Brad's surprise delivery reminded the Founding Fathers that separation from Britain was necessary, but that they may not have been so quick to separate from Italy.

Re: Caption contest
You all had me worried this week, since the captions were slow to roll in, but you came through with some hilarious ideas! This week’s prize (disclaimer: still no prize) goes to first-time winner Wayne Franklin, filmmaker and author of the hilarious book Midlife Mouse, which is still available at an Amazon near you!
Honorable Mentions: Don Kistler: "Ok, SOMEBODY here ordered 3 pizzas and I'm not leaving till I get paid!"; Bob Hodges: "IDIOT!!! You bring pizza in here? This is Philadelphia. Run out and get us CHEESESTEAKS!!!!!”; and PatchOBlack : “Despite his best efforts, he couldn't get ‘pizza’ listed as one of the inalienable rights....”
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

Re: Caption contest
CAPTION CONTEST, Week 28 - In honor of the host city of the recently concluded Barbershop Harmony Society annual international convention, I find myself enjoying (?) the Edgewalk of Toronto's CN Tower.
How would YOU caption this picture? Comment below! The same pic will show here and on Facebook. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. (As always, no prizes, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.)

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Red suit with brown shoes?!?! Eeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.
