"Nothing More Foolish Than A Man Chasin' His Hat"

Caption as many pictures as you want, but at least try the practice picture (#5). Clicking on thumbnails = larger, context-revealing picture. Lavish praise on your favorites. #4 is the wrongest and consequently my favorite.

#1 "Oh, that's right, Private Bush, don't make any fucking effort to get above a 40% approval rating. If God would have wanted you to be tolerated by anyone but hardcore Republicans, he would have miracled your ass up there by now, wouldn't he?"

#2 I swear to God, I am going to completely fuck up whoever put me in that crate and... hey, where the hell am I?

#3 Participants at French TicklerCon 2005 got an unexpected shock when the keynote speaker was introduced.

#4 Sorry I exploded in roid rage on you last week, little buddy. Vould you like some ice cream und a 20th Anniversary Platinum Edition Red Heat DVD?

#5 [Practice caption! Good luck!]

#6 They just upped the price again during my speech? That's the THIRD TIME. I'm Audi 5000.

#7 We know it's a butterfly of freedom, Mr. Secretary. It was a butterfly of freedom when you did it at the last press conference, and the one before that.

#8 OK, I'm going to level with you. I am not the God of hellfire. I'm just a guy who hates trees.

#9 I don't care if she did smoked out with Coltrane, dude, she's totally bogarting my joint. I'm gonna say something.
