I didn't get to make my usual last-minute submission to the New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #591 for November 6, 2017 because the contest ended an hour early. Someone at the New Yorker forgot to turn the Caption Contest clock back an hour for the end of daylight saving time. Let's discuss how I feel about that. The drawing is by P. C. Vey.
November 13, 2017 Update: The Finalists
November 20, 2017 Update: I voted for the third caption. All are very good but I can only pick one.
November 27, 2017 Update: Winning Caption
Note: Last week, cartoonist Tom Cheney went all primitive about cave art. See Contest #590.
