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.

Re: Caption contest
CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! First, the Honorable Mentions: DisneyMom: "The 'Wombat Club' franchise never really took off, despite its cult following."; Alan AJ Irby: "Rather than file a restraining order, the mouse decided that turnabout was fair play."; Two closely-related entries that are even funnier together: Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "There's just one moon and there's just one sun, and there's just one Wombat for everyone..."; and Purpura: "It's a Wombat after all... It's a Wombat after all... It's a Wombat after all, It's a Wombat's world."; kcberlin: "The licensing debacle of 2015... it all started with a wombat?"; and a VM inside joke from Bill Carleton: "Wombat begins to question Phil McShan's ability to lead the chorus when he discovers the costume choice for Nebuchadnezzar."
And this week's winner is ktulu, his third win this year and fourteenth of all time! Congratulations, ktulu!

CAPTION CONTEST for APRIL 17! Inspired by the close personal friend of Jay Marsh... How would you caption this picture? Comment below!
The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, just the glory of winning!

Fred convention? My secretary said it was a Brad convention. That's the last time I hire an assistant from Craigslist

Ummm, all these Freds and not a bicycle in sight.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! (Please let Fred like these... please let Fred like these...) First, the Honorable Mentions: darph nader: "Fred said he would meet me here. I wonder where he is?"; kcberlin: "Fred convention? My secretary said it was a Brad convention. That's the last time I hire an assistant from Craigslist."; Jerry Andrews: "High Fredelity."; Tim Bird: "Relieved that he had brought an eraser from home, Brad's subtle modification to his name tag allows him to slip by security and into the convention."; Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "'Which way do I turn to get inside?' asked Wombat. 'Right,' said Fred."; and DisneyMom: "Wombat auditions for the new hit zombie series, 'The Walking Fred.'"
And the winning caption this week is from my friend John Griffin, my former music minister and quartet-mate (and fellow Baylor alum!), his second win! Congratulations, John!
