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.

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! Okay, rather than make you wait until my first day of Singing Valentines is over, I'm posting these results late at night after an amazing VM recording session. It is Friday, technically! First, the Honorable Mentions: Zazu: "Sure, she looks happy. The deaf often make favorable presumptions about what they can't hear."; Whitney Rogers: "Sorry, Brad. Not all of us can be Tony DeRosa."; Christy Davis: "He already must have touched water and obviously stays out of the sun. No one feed him after midnight!"; Bob Littlepage: "Just as the space-time continuum began to rip apart..."; and Jeff Lavelle: "Our bargain special this year for Valentine's Day is our '4 Shades of Wombat' singing telegram."
And this week's winner is hhsrat, his first win in 2015 and sixth overall! Congratulations, hhsrat!
Thanks to all who entered! New pic coming on Monday! I'm going to bed now.

What do you mean solicitation is not allowed by the Texas State Bar Association? My future client is obviously tragically injured!
