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.

That's no outfit. He was born that way. I always heard that no one had ever seen the band members from KISS without their makeup. The Gene Simmons on TV now is a fake to keep the legend alive.
Re: Caption contest
Fortunately for me, or maybe it was unfortunate, in the late 70’s my job required me to walk about 5 blocks from my workplace to another building in the company twice a day. This walk went right past the front door of the Holiday Inn (the only hotel in the area at the time). Just as I was about to pass the doorway, out walked KISS. NO MAKEUP!!! :hysteria:YANXWIN wrote:That's no outfit. He was born that way. I always heard that no one had ever seen the band members from KISS without their makeup.

They had just gotten off of their bus. Too bad I wasn’t a fan, would have made a great picture.

Without commenting on what YANXWIN just posted, I will say that I am very proud of the custom silver wombat on the front of my outfit.DisneyMom wrote:OK, I think this question needs answering,Wombat.......Did you have your outfit made custom or is it off-the-rack????? :p:

Yes, that is me in the custody of Dog the Bounty Hunter.

CAPTION CONTEST, Week 12 - Okay, funny and creative friends (that's all of you), how would YOU caption this wholly inappropriate picture? Comment below, or on Facebook or The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. (As always, no prizes, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.)

OK, we'll give you a shot in the Basilica choir, but no dancing or theatrics and absolutely no tag endings. Capish? :choir:

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.

Hey Francis ... Do you know how to use this "Schwartz" thing?
