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 for MARCH 13! This is still Monday, isn't it? Or maybe I accidentally "sprang forward" a day instead of an hour? Sorry, I'm just hunting for an excuse for being late posting this week's photo. So how would you caption this picture? Comment below!
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, just the glory of winning!

CAPTION CONTEST for MARCH 20! My dear friend DisneyMom requested a Cinderella-themed pic this week, though I bet she's regretting that now. How would you caption this picture? Comment below!

Re: Caption contest
Cinderella discovered that it's really important to read the fine print on those wishes.

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