Boy, is it ever Monday! To make the day a little better, here’s our weekly caption contest. This time our photo features a kid (or midget) on a motorcycle who has been pulled over by a policeman. Figure out something funny to say about this photo, whether making a joke, pun, or giving it some unusual context.

Have you ever seen TV commercials that are cooler than the TV show you’re watching? (If so, you probably need to watch something else.) But there are a few commercials that come close. My current favorite one is for the Nissan Juke, called Donut Action. This is the longer version of the commercial (just over a minute), where the intern forgot the donuts for the business status meeting.
The whole commercial is cool, but I especially like the end, where he shows up with the donuts and says “Bang!” Then the announcer says, “That’s right.” Classic.
Also worth mentioning is the Geico commercial that asks, “Does a former drill sergeant make a terrible therapist?”
(I didn’t think he was terrible…)
I can’t let another week get started without a caption contest… This week’s photo features President Barack Obama looking under his desk in the Oval Office while a lady looks on amusedly. I don’t know if she is an admin or a temp or an assistant or friend or Congressperson — you get to decide who she is, if you wish to define her. That’s how the whole caption contest works — it’s up to you to explain what is going on here. So think of something funny — and it can be politically-based — but keep it clean.

This past weekend I ate at Paula Deen Buffet restaurant at Harrah’s Casino in Tunica, MS. For those of you who don’t know who she is, she’s one of the stars on The Food Network, and she’s famous for Southern-style cooking. She’s also famous for using butter in almost everything she cooks. As you might guess, the food was great. I don’t even want to know how many calories I consumed.
The restaurant has 7 different buffet lines, and none of them were the kind that are just there for looks (like fruit*) — there was something scrumptious on every one. The fried chicken was the best I’d ever eaten from a restaurant — it was very close to what my mom makes. The baked macaroni and cheese was incredible. I could go on and on about how great the food is. Let’s just say I could eat there every day. I do need to mention that one of the buffet lines has only desserts, and from the ones I sampled, it was all good. I have to recommend the chocolate ooey-gooey butter bars — I even brought back a box of those for later. 🙂
If you ever get the chance to eat there, by all means, do so. (I wonder what needs to happen to get one of those to open in central Arkansas…)
* I have nothing against fruit, but when I go to an all-you-can-eat buffet, I’m not there for fruit.
