October 2012 Cartoon Caption Contest Winners

Once again, we had several quite funny submissions. We had to go through four elimination rounds before deciding on the three winners.
You can see them here:

Woo-hoo! Finally won something! :rofl:
The cartoons are such fun, and the contest entries are always hard to beat; but persistence finally paid off!

Thanks to PM.com and SmokingPipes.com for providing a great feature! :clap:

Just so you guys know, I purposely do not look at the names of the people that made the submission until after we choose the winners, so as not to let any unintended bias creep in.
I was happy to see CortezAttic (Larry) win since he is one of the most active members that have been here the longest.
It is also funny that Rondy came in 2nd. He was talking to me on Facebook about something completely unrelated when he asked when we would be announcing the winners. I have been so busy that I almost forgot that we still had to choose the October winners, and I went to the task because of his reminder.
I narrowed it down to the 9 best submissions (that all made me LOL) and then called Greg Pease to get to the three finalists.

Kevin, I'll probably need an affidavit from you to prove this new pipe does not entitle Shoe Lady to another pair of shoes. :rofl:

Well, I finally got my camera upload software loaded onto a new different computer, so now I can show off my

1st Prize Sebastien Beo Pipe! Thanks so much to PipesMagazine.com for a fun feature, and to SmokingPipes.com for a great prize.!

Here's a link to four SmokingPipes.com Blog entries that tell the story of these nifty French pipes with an English pedigree.
