The CartoonStock Caption Contest #158
Why not pour ourselves another drink and settle down with the CartoonStock Caption Contest #158? My three entries cost me $5—a steal! Cash prizes are set at $500 for first place and $100 for each of five runners up. So far I've invested $20 in this contest and I'm keeping a tally. The cinematic drawing is by Tom Chitty.

My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #636
It's time to unwrap my entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #636 for October 22, 2018. The drawing is by Tom Chitty after a famous (staged) photograph by Charles C. Ebbets publicizing the construction of Rockefeller Center.

November 5, 2018 Update: I cast my vote for the first caption.
November 12, 2018 Update: The Winner
Note: Last week cartoonist Christopher Weyant took some of the luster off finally meeting that knight in shining armor. I neglected to submit my finished caption, but you can still enjoy the joust as if I had. Take a shine to Contest #635.
Then you might want to hang with my older post about Tom Chitty.
