Cartoon Caption Contest: Dec. 11 – 14

cartoon-for-posting
If you’ve never played before, here’s how it works:Think up a good caption for the cartoon, submit it below in the comments box (use any name you want), and my cat and I will choose a winning caption on Dec. 15. I recommend thinking up your own caption BEFORE reading what others have written. The e-mail address must be valid, and the winner gets the book of his/her choice of the books available on my “Buy Books” page. Easy! If you have friends who might enjoy this, please share with them! Thanks! Have fun with this!

  13. Leigh December 11, 2016 at 8:39 pm #

    Did you leave the door open?

  14. Leigh December 11, 2016 at 8:40 pm #

    My feet are still not happy.

  15. Leigh December 11, 2016 at 8:41 pm #

    Which one is Gunther?

  16. Julie December 11, 2016 at 9:06 pm #

    I thought your sister asked us to “penguin sit” for one night. That was three days ago.

  17. Kim December 11, 2016 at 9:35 pm #

    I THOUGHT we agreed on a dog…!??

    Happy Feet seemed like enough research… I didn’t know they pooped so much!

  21. Mark Richardson December 11, 2016 at 10:17 pm #

    You know It is not just about the poop.

    “No, the joke is: What is black and white and read all over?”

  27. Mike T December 12, 2016 at 12:12 pm #

    How about this year we cancel the Penguin of the Month Club.

  28. Mike T December 12, 2016 at 12:13 pm #

    I know you wanted to move down south but isn’t this a little extreme?

  29. Mike T December 12, 2016 at 12:14 pm #

    Why do I feel that there is something you’re not telling me?

  30. Mike T December 12, 2016 at 12:19 pm #

    You know, I blame myself. I encouraged Steve to be a free spirit but, really, what are we supposed to do with all these penguins?

  31. David December 12, 2016 at 1:07 pm #

    It’s 13 to 1, Helen. The thermostat stays at 68. Put on a sweater.

    We both know it’s not just the room that’s frigid.

    I feel underdressed now.

  54. Leela December 13, 2016 at 5:24 pm #

    I told you that dozen eggs from the Farmer’s Market looked dodgy….

  55. Leela December 13, 2016 at 5:30 pm #

    “Twelve Penguins Playing” is NOT the verse right after “Eleven Pipers Piping.”

  56. Leela December 13, 2016 at 5:31 pm #

    Yeah, but… did we really need a full dozen?

  57. Karen B. December 13, 2016 at 7:07 pm #

    Well, the Penguin of the Month club was interesting. Wonder what the kids will get us this year?

  58. Rabidweasel December 13, 2016 at 9:27 pm #

    They never act this way when you give them Sanka brand decaffienated coffee.

  59. David December 13, 2016 at 9:35 pm #

    I think I’ve made my point.

  60. David December 13, 2016 at 9:40 pm #

  62. David December 13, 2016 at 9:47 pm #

    What were you thinking for dinner?

  63. Misabelle December 14, 2016 at 12:48 am #

    Penguins don’t come from next door, they come from the antarctic!

    How do they balance their eggs on such little feet?

  70. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:29 am #

    We are NOT adopting any more children from Antarctica!

  71. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:33 am #

    I know it happens only once every few million years, but I really can’t wait until the poles shift again.

  72. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:36 am #

    I have explained it to you before, Honey. Santa comes from the North Pole. He has reindeer. Anti-Santa comes from the South Pole. He has penguins.

    I tell you, this refugee crisis is getting out of hand.

  74. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:39 am #

    You know what bothers me the most about them? There are no gray areas. It’s always either black or white.

  75. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:43 am #

    Remember when I said I would like to hear the pitter patter of little feet around the house? Well, I’ve changed my mind.

  76. Terence December 15, 2016 at 5:47 am #

    I’m reading about a woman who shared her house with a dozen cats. Boy, some people are just plain nuts.
