On Friday, I asked you to provide a caption that goes best with this picture. Winner gets lunch with Angle or a guest post at which I am barred from any critical commentary. There were, as expected, a lot of noodle jokes. But this is the winning entry.You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Damn! I really wanted that lunch, too!
ReplyDeleteBernie, I 'm the winner, but hesitate to reveal my identity.
ReplyDeleteDoing a post here is quite tempting.
Anon 11:54,
ReplyDeleteCongrats! If you'd like to retain your anonymity, that's fine. You can send your guest post to BOHare5948@aol.com. If you'd prefer, you can even post it as a comment here, and I'll convert it into a separate post for you. I'll even look for a picture. I'd also be happy to meet you and Ron for lunch, but you'd have to lose your anonymoity while eating with us.

ReplyDelete...Or just wear a mask like the Phanton of the Opera.
Hey Bernie,
ReplyDeleteI'm the winner! I don't what anybody else says.
I don't want to do lunch but can I have the money instead?
I need it to make up for the "salary cut" I took from Properties of Merit.
It is getting harder and harder to make a living scamming people here in the Valley. Know what I mean?
Send me the money ASAP.
Thanks, Hon.
Luv ya!
Sam Bennett
Correction: Sorry Bernie.
ReplyDeleteI meant to say I don't care what anybody else says in the previous post.
Don't want anybody to misunderestimate me!
Sam B.
Sam, Didn't you get my check? It's bouncing its way towards Allentown.
ReplyDeletePoor Sam.
ReplyDeleteI guees she is really desperate.
I saw that her friend Don C. is now witholding grant money.
How much longer do we have to deal with this excuse of a candidate?
Bernie, did you see today's Morning call?
ReplyDeleteSam Bennett on the front page again -- and not in a good way either.
I also heard that she is having problems with her campaign staff. That dude Jeff that you mentioned in past posts is supposedly gone.
Is her ship finally sinking?
We can only hope and pray. I saw the article. LVHW directed my attention to it this morning.
ReplyDeletePoor Sammy B.
ReplyDeleteWhat will she do for a living now that her POM scam has been exposed and her Congressional campaign is floundering?
Maybe she will have to get a real job, with a paycheck equal to her talents.
Minimum wage at McDonald's comes to mind.
AJ.... anon 10:35 won by "this much " :)
ReplyDeletebernie.. we all had fun with this contest. perhaps you can have another one every so often :)

STAY ANONYMOUS.... just in case some one tries to stiff you with the check! :):):):)
Why not allow this to be an 'all invited' lunch? We can all keep our anonymity, by wearing Mexican Wrestling Masks. We could start a new trend. ;)
ReplyDeleteI would go as the "Screaming Banshee!"

remember how great Mil Mascaras was back in the early 1970's ? :)

ReplyDeleteRiver, I stole the idea from Micek over at Capitol Ideas. He did the same thing a few weeks ago. Then Casey had a goofy grocery cart from his back yard, and wanted a caption for that.
So I stole the idea from two different bloggers. I'm a plagiarist.
Hey Bernie,
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should have Sam Bennett write up a state grant proposal for you to make this contest an annual affair.
I hear she works for cheap, especially if you are planning to expand the contest statewide over the next year.
Then YOU could pay her $110K of our tax dollars.
Sweet!
