Mind if I borrow this plane for a bit? I need to move a fridge across town.
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.

"Are you sure you know where you're going?" "Of course, I have the itinerary right here on these important controls."
Re: Caption contest
Pilot's licence? Well, no, but I've ridden Astro Orbiter a lot...does that count?

Re: Caption contest
CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! Many more great submissions this week -- and everyone seemed to agree that I shouldn't be allowed at the controls of a plane. First, the Honorable Mentions: Larry Lozuk: "Really? In Microsoft Flight Simulator you use the F3 key to accelerate."; Jay Marsh: "Hey bud, this is not part of your tour package. Back to the cargo hold for you."; two from darph nader: "Relax, man. I've seen the movie Airplane like 25 times. I'm sure this is how it goes." and "Mind if I borrow this plane for a bit? I need to move a fridge across town." (Way to keep tabs on my personal life, darph!); ktulu: "<Brad> 'It's easy! You think of a wonderful thought!' <Co-pilot> 'Any happy little thought?'"; Bob Littlepage: "Right, so which button do I push to fire the phasers?"; Steven Jones: "No, really, I won a caption contest, and first prize is captaining a flight. Don't bother those tower dudes, call the main office - they'll confirm."; and Bret Morris with this way inside joke: "Baaaah... ba ba baaaah... ba ba baaaah... ba ba baah baaaah... ba-ya-ya-ya-yaaaah...." (It's the intro to VM's new jazzy a capella arrangement of "I'll Fly Away.")
And this week's brilliant winner is from the wise and wonderful Zazu! This is his sixth win overall and first this year! Congratulations, Zazu!
Thanks to all who entered! New pic coming on Monday!

Re: Caption contest
I don't understand the exchange rate here. How many wigs and robes to the dollar?
