The CartoonStock Cartoon Caption Contest No. 172

The surgical team has some news for Dorothy and Toto in the CartoonStock Caption Contest #172. The rules of the monthly cash prize contest haven't changed: five dollars buys up to three entries. Real cash prizes are $500 for first place and $100 for each of five runners up. As of this writing, I've put $85 into the first seventeen pay-to-play contests and this eighteenth one brings my total cash outlay to $90. But I've collected $200 from the previous contests, so I'm still doing very well. In fact, so few contestants enter that the odds are actually quite favorable. My three entries are shown below, above the break. The cartoonist of a different color is Robert Leighton.

"We had to use anesthesia. We got nowhere with the poppies."
"The tinsmith also forgot to give him health insurance."
"Let me begin by saying ding dong."

"Yes, yes, yes, we were all there."
