In the CartoonStock Caption Contest number 190, a police officer has pulled over a yellow convertible with a dog and a cat in the front seat and a smaller dog in the back. The dog with a red bandana is driving. The officer speaks.
The rules of the monthly cash prize contest have not changed (and neither has my description of them): 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 $175 into the first thirty-five pay-to-play contests and this thirty-sixth challenge brings my total cash outlay up to $180. Having achieved runner-up status with two previous entries, I've collected $200 from CartoonStock, so I'm still playing with the house's money, thank goodness. In fact, so few contestants enter that the odds may generally be considered favorable even for us less-gifted caption writers. My three entries are shown below. The cartoonist is Julia Suits.
