You started everyone down the cigar path, which should make you either very proud or profoundly revolted. I'm guessing the former :-).

I cry foul! I WOULDA made the top 3, if it wasn't for Rodney! I demand the rules be changed in all future contests. Let there be two winning entries each week: Rodney's best, then the three best "also-rans."

Thanks Kevin.
I thought everyone, myself included, were playing for second after Charles' excellent start. I think playing off his caption helped put mine over the top.
I did have second thoughts about the tastelessness of my caption, fortunately not until after I'd let it loose.
Strangely, eliciting a couple of comments from another prolific captioneer, like Jay Tea, is as rewarding as winning.

Rodney, credit must be paid where it is due. That cigar comment was one of the vilest, nastiest, and outrageous comments I've seen since Laurence Simon's one involving rough gay sex with platypi back in September. As soon as I saw it, I knew this weekend's contest had devolved into a fight for second.
And you're STILL an evil bastard.

I'll take that as a compliment, and I promise I won't recycle my caption... (unless someone actually posts Bill Clinton smoking a cigar as a caption contest). Considering the results of the OTB caption contest from last week, this was a pretty good day -- for a work day.
