It’s back!
Our ongoing caption contest resumes today with a submission from the very talented Gregory Kogan.
To repeat the rules, the idea here is quite simple: Your job is to come up with a gag. Make us smile, make us laugh, extra-points for those who are able to drop some interesting fact or trivia along the way. We’ll narrow down the entries to our favorites and then let YOU guys pick one winner. Remember: when dropping your gag in the comments, also let us know which t-shirt you prefer in case your caption is selected the winner. (T-shirts can be found over in our store.)
Â
Enter as often as you’d like, so long as each is in a separate comment.
As always, if you’re good with the pen and think YOU’D like to contribute a cartoon of your own for a future caption contest, or want to pitch me an idea for one, please leave a comment and I’ll be in touch with you via e-mail.

“I’m kind of worried about how this little incident’s gonna affect these guys… after all, it’s a known fact that ‘Sheep have good long-term memory especially with respect to unpleasant experiences.’”
There – I gave you a fact (I’m putting the link to it under website), so bonus points! ;-)

Here’s another one:
Hey, I saw this in a Donald Duck comic! All we need are these sheep and twenty-seven million table tennis balls… oh, wait a minute…
(FYI: In 1964, a freighter carrying 6,000 sheep capsized in a Kuwaiti harbor. To prevent the water from being contaminated by decaying sheep, they had to get the freighter out of the water soon. The engineer Karl Kroyer thought back to a Donald Duck comic book he had read back in 1949, The Sunken Yacht, in which the Duck family raised a ship by filling it with table tennis balls. The freighter in Kuwait was filled in a similar fashion, and it worked! Not such a baaaaaad idea after all *end cue bad joke*)

Go… save yourself, Arrow. A captain must go down with his sheep.

Sheep have very poor eyesight but their hearing is excellent…. if we hear them break into ‘Do Ewe Hear What I Hear?’, we’re as good as rescued!
