If you know me, you know I love a good contest, especially when it involves photos of me. So I decided to kick off a quick contest during the holidays since, I figure, people will have a lot of time on their hands.
This contest is LOL Capybara. In case there’s anyone out there who doesn’t understand the LOL concept, what you do is create a funny caption for the photo. I do not require LOL Speak (and if you don’t know what that is, you are blissfully ignorant) because I value good language and grammar. Nevertheless, as with all my contests, the readers are the judges and they may well love LOL Speak, so do what you will.
Contest Rules:
- Post your entry as a comment
- Specify which photo your LOL caption relates to (1,2,3 or 4)
- Must be kid-friendly, no profanity and nothing vulgar or inappropriate!
- Enter as many times as you like
- Contest starts now and closes Dec. 6th.
- Voting will be from Dec. 7th through Dec. 14th
- I will put up a poll for you to use for voting on the 7th.
Prizes:
- Prizes are for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place
- 1st place chooses then 2nd chooses from remaining, then 3rd places chooses from remaining
- Prizes are:
- A Capycoppy (as seen in photo 4)
- A 2011 Caplin Calendar
- A Caplin Rous mug
- A copy of Celeste and the Giant Hamster.
****************** VOTING ON THIS CONTEST IS OFFICIALLY CLOSED! **********************
Congratulations to all participants. We loved reading your captions.

There was a tie for 2nd place between Sue R. and Joann but I decided to give it to Sue R. since Joann already won first.
Joann, please select your prizes!
