Welcome to the News & Record's "Jokes on You" page. Each week I'll post the new cartoon for your caption consideration (see above) and post the previous week's cartoon, the winning entries and all the other entries (see below). I will also try to talk a little about what I liked about the captions I chose and why I thought they worked. Feel free to post comments and ask questions. And remember, this is for entertainment purposes only, so please, no wagering.
LAST WEEK'S CARTOON
Of all the "Pull over and ask directions" captions we received, we picked the one we thought worked best with the drawing.
Some of the more interesting captions, from JOU champ, CC, were submitted before the cartoon was even posted. See the blog. Also see the blog for all the Uranus jokes you could possibly want, courtesy mostly of Bob Beitzel. Thanks, Bob.
Live long and prosper. And, as Brewster Rockit would say: "May there be ham in your future."

BEST POEM
From Gazoo, Alf and Mork you can check
Where the aliens came from on deck.
From their color and ears
It confirms all my fears:
They're more closely related to Shrek.
Ken Sheldon, Elon
Bob Mannary this is for you, You are a funny intelligent man
I'm one of your long-time fans,
For some of us wanna-be caption writer winners
that aren't quite as funny with the one liners,
this poetry corner is the place for us to show our creatitivy,
So don't be so negative and derogatory,
Poetry is free form, it doesn't have to have a beat,
it doesn't have to rhyme, that's what makes it so neat,
but in the spirit of Dr. Suess, One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish,
Now it's time for you to make your wish!
Nancy Nelson
We landed on Mars
and we got candy Bars,
We landed on Saturn
and we were put in a holding pattern,
We landed on the Moon
and they asked if would like some pies,
We went to Neptune
and were attacked by loons,
Mercury was such a hot spot
it made me see dots,
the Sun was no fun either, Pluto gives me the shivers
and they pulled arrows from their quivers,
Those creatures on Uranus wanted to go where noone has go before,
Earth wasn't much better,
but that old lady did knit us a sweater,
Venus was nice
but there was so much vice,
Jupiter is just too big
and they assaulted us with huge figs
This vacation was the pits,
so let's leave this galaxy now before we start having hissy fits!
Nancy Nelson

"Why was that strange man smiling that way when he said that he had fun with you in Uranus?"
"Everyone else goes to the beach, but I have to spend my summer in Uranus!"
"Why did some strange woman just call and say that she thinks she left her necklace in Uranus?"
Bob Beitzel, Pleasant Garden
