Is it time for a photo caption contest?

&nbsp;

I'll get us started:

Yes, I suppose the Kang/Kodos resemblance is quite evident. Which would suggest&nbsp; some of the following:

&nbsp;1. Anyone from a species that has mastered intergalactic travel raise your hand!

2. Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos!

&nbsp;3. Stop! We have reached the limits of what rectal probing can teach us.

&nbsp;(wait, can I say that here??)

Ed's first attempt at showing his 8mm home movies aboard a Wood Duck 12 was less than successful.

&nbsp;

(BTW, what's your FARK handle, Snobben?&nbsp; ;)&nbsp; )

Although the optional faring was rated to 130 MPH, most paddlers found that there were few occasions when they needed to go that fast.

MightyThor, I’m ROTFL!&nbsp; I hereby withdraw from the contest–I can’t touch that caption with a Greenland paddle.

John hires the ghost of Rod Serling to design new products for CLC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; or

Ed, a most dedicated family man, will do anything to feed his wife & kids.

Oh, these are all good so far. &nbsp;As much as I chuckled over Snobben’s creative graphics, right now for me it’s a toss up between Camper’s "giant floating eyeball" and &nbsp;Ogata’s #3. &nbsp;Although "optional faring" and "pac-man" are in the running.

Tired of rising fuel costs and the urge to "go green", Ed launches his self-propelled hot-air windyak.
