Caption Contest #22 - Get Your Thinking Caps On - Ends Wednesday 12.23.09 At 9PM EST
Monday, December 21, 2009 at 07:32AM 
Strangely, it’s kinda reassuring to know that weird people have been around for a really long time. Here’s a little proof… DC-2 mechanics wearing prop hub spinners on their head! Apparently it was the easiest way to carry the rather cumbersome little buggers, and hopefully it’ll make for some fun captions as well.
So, while you’re getting ready for Christmas, put your thinking hub cap on and throw a funny caption (or 3) at me. And take comfort in knowing that the last time you put a spinner on your head, no one took a picture of you and put it on the internets : )
You've got til Wednesday eve at 9pm EST to be funny, and the I’ll pick the 5 best captions and put ’em in a poll for everyone to vote on. The winner will get $20 in AirPigz funny money (as always, more on that later).
The Rules:
1) Max of 3 submissions per person
2) Submissions go in the 'comments' area
3) Game ends Wednesday at 9pm EST
4) Keep it clean!
Anyone who wants to cast their vote will be able to after the poll goes up around an hour after the 9pm Wednesday submission deadline.
We'll vote for 24 hours, til 9pm EST on Thursday. Then the winner will be posted Friday (Christmas!) morning.
