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
So much funny this week, but this pithy entry takes the top prize (disclaimer: still no prize). The winner is a guy who’s known me maybe longer than anyone outside my family, since elementary school, and yet still somehow chooses to associate with me: Bob Littlepage – his first win!

Honorable Mentions: There were so many Village People jokes that I couldn’t decide which to include, so consider yourself kind-of-Honorably Mentioned if you made one! Also Don Kistler: "Ok, I did all this and they STILL won't let me be in the front row."; SGT's own WEDFan: “I'm confused, BRW, I thought the idea of the contest was to post altered photos -- not just selfies.”; and a double Honorable Mention to perennial placer Alan AJ Irby: “The Vocal Majority 2014 Calendar shoot was off to a great start...” and “Wombat - proving that Jessica Simpson is not the only former or current member of The Heights who can rock a pair of Daisy Dukes.”
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

How would she know it was green? She's from black and white land. She doesn't know what colors are yet.

Where am I? Who are you? Isn't this the sequel to Bubble Boy?

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

My first thought was, "Any fruits or vegetables to declare?"
