I saw "Wallaby" and copied it ... I also have revised history, and edited my posts. Sincere apologies to Wombat, the curator of this caption contest, and also to Wallaby, for getting you confused with your marsupial cousin.WEDFan wrote: Yes, and I fear I started it. For that I offer my most sincere apology. Something obviously short-circuited in my brain.
I have also engaged in revisionist history and corrected earlier posts.

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
Week 19 Caption Contest results! This is another week where you all made it incredibly difficult for me by being so funny! I had lots of good laughs, but these got me the most: first – the Honorable Mentions! Bear Deardorff: "Wombat screamed, 'Spider-Man! Come back!'"; Trent Blackley: "This year for Mother's Day, in tribute to his saintly mother Gail and his faithful wife Becky, Wombat delighted his adoring fans below with a honest to goodness rendition of Johnny Cash's famous tune 'I Walk the Line.'"; ktulu: "Come on Brad, you remember how to get to Neverland. Just remember, think of a wonderful thought. Any happy little thought. Like criminals getting justice, gold medals, Mickey ears. Now watch me go..."; Larry E Collins: "The Vocal Majority choreography gets more challenging every year!"; and Patrick Stayton: "Wombat's year of living cheaply continues. Discount dogsledding. Discount ballooning. And now, discount line dancing lessons."
And this week’s winner is fellow barbershopper -- and proud new daddy -- John Rentz, his first win! Congratulations, John!!
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday – with a unique prize for the winner!

Re: Caption contest
In my absence, Wombat said it first... but if you're going to mistake two animals, while visually I have to question what you were thinking as wombats and wallabies are quite different in appearance... I can't think of another animal for which I would be more honored to be mistaken.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Re: Caption contest
Ina an abandoned version, Remi watches Wombat the lawyer instead of Gusteau the Chef, but they found he became less sympathetic to the audience.

First day here, the other guy died. Anyone know the format of this show? What? We're live?
