In the CartoonStock Caption Contest number 205, a man wearing a leaf blower has arrived at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter is the speaker. The cartoonist, new to this blog, is Tim Mellish.
The rules of the monthly cash prize contest have not 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 $250 into the first fifty pay-to-play contests and this fifty-first challenge brings my total cash outlay up to $255. Having achieved runner-up status with three previous entries, I've collected $300 from CartoonStock, so I'm still playing with the house's money, thank you very much. In fact, so few contestants enter that the odds may generally be considered favorable even for less-gifted caption writers. My three entries this round are shown below.
