Tell your friends and neighbors! Yes kids, as promised and to further the celebration of my birthday (which isn't until Friday but why wait to celebrate something that cool?) I offer, for your amusement the second contest in my Second First Annual Contest. The challenge?
Create a funny caption for this picture: ( It is knitting related. If you zoom in you can see Barbie is holding actual knitting. I knit with straight pins. That sucks!)
The rules:
1. Must be funny!
2. Contest ends Friday, June 9 at midnight CST.
The winner will be chosen at random by Boogie. (She has a wicked sense of humor.)
The prize? Jim, what could the lovely folks win? (Jim is a good model. He doesn't whine like the rest.)
Two skeins of recycled Tibetan Silk and a set of stitch markers. Mmmm. Shiny.
Winners of this contest and the previous one will be announced Sunday, June 11 sometime in the morning after I've recovered from celebrating.
Let's be funny!
ok, i'm sure it's illegal to enter twice, but i have 26 baby chicks right now and, having just posted a Barbie caption quote, i now humbly submit a Ken caption.
Ken-to-Barbie: Whatcha makin? Diapers for chicken butts?

Ken, I promise that as soon as I finish knitting myself these opposable thumbs I'll start on that little project for you that we talked about. What size do you want it to be?
WHAT did you say?!? I thought you wanted a SWEATER!

"Come on Barbie, I really want to make it to the sock hop tonight. I really don't think you have time to knit us both a pair before then." "You just relax Ken. With my turbo knitting needles and this fancy floss, I can knit anything in no time!"

I respectfully understand that the judge will not see this one! But geeze, you put a naked man doll up there...Someone has to write it!
Ken: Barb, you sure are sexy when you knit with those big sticks. I just love how well you handle them.
Barbie: Knock it off Ken, there's no way in hell I'm putting this down...I've got a headache.
Ken: But Barbie, honey, I could be your yarn slave, I could put this skein right on here like this... see...mmm...look no hands... now I'll just help you pull...mmm...the yarn off..mmmmmm...oh yeah, keep knitting...
Barbie: Um, Ken, you're a real sick puppy...That is just gross. By the way smarty pants, you do remember you are EXTREMELY allergic to wool, don't ya?
Barbie with wry grin (to herself): Gee wiz, I just can't seem to remember where I put that benedryl I just bought...oh, well.

Ken: Aren't you finished with that row yet?
Barbie: Not quite, almost there though.
Ken: Why do you have to knit all the time anyway?
Barbie: Do you want to be wearing clothes made of red duct tape forever?

Ken: Hey, Barbie. Why don't we go to the beach and frolick in the waves? You can be Beach Barbie.
Barbie: We're not going anywhere until I've finished this row.
Ken: But you said that yesterday - you must have finished a row by now.
Barbie: Do you think it is that easy to knit with my fingers moulded permanently into the same pose?

Okay, I'm not feeling very funny, but here ya go --
Barbie: Gosh, it's hard to knit without articulated joints!
Ken: Huh?

Barbie: Keep yer pants on, dude.

*giggles* Heh - I think it goes something like this.
'Ken': Why do I have to stand here holding this again?
'Barbie': I'm knitting you a straight-jacket just in case we get a repeat of last week.
'Ken': Aww.. Can't a guy have a little fun? Will I ever live that down?
'Barbie': Not a chance. Spool me out some more yarn.
I don't know - is that Boogie safe? ;o)
