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.

2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 9. How would you caption this picture?
The same pic will show here, on Facebook, and on The World of Wombat. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.

"Wombat, planning to create the flying house from Up, decides to do a small scale trial run to see if he can even lift himself in a lawn chair."

The Vocal Majority was trying to figure out what to do about a severe shortage of tenors when Wombat said, "I know how to reach the high notes!"

Wombat scans the skies with a wary eye for signs of the rare -- but situationally deadly -- flying quill-throwing bongo.
Re: Caption contest
Disney, in yet another cost-cutting fiasco, scaled "Characters in Flight" back just a little *too* much.
