We take a break from all of this serious talk to get down to serious Friday business -- the relentlessly unserious Captain's Caption Contest! Yes, we all have to take a break from the rigors of our daily, serious tasks ... but in some cases, it's really hard to tell the difference:

Guest judging this weekend will be my good friend and colleague from Fraters Libertas, the seriously unserious Saint Paul. The Fraters guys are raising funds for a worthy cause -- an inline skate rally for Multiple Sclerosis. (They're against it.) If you can drop a few coins in the jar, they'd certainly appreciate it.

As always, leave your comments on the comments page, and as always, put your best caption entries in the comments section -- NO e-mail, please! (E-mailed entries will be sealed in an empty French wine bottle and placed under the rear tires of Barbra Streisand's hybrid limousine.) The contest will remain open until 8 pm Sunday, July 4th, at which point the comments will be closed and Saint Paul will pick the winners.

As a final note, I will be going out of town for an Irish-language workshop -- more serious business -- and while I probably will have some limited Internet connectivity, I don't anticipate doing too much blogging until Sunday evening. Keep checking back for the great captions we'll get and for new posts by my partner, Whiskey! (I'll probably put up a couple late-night and early-morning, too.)

BUMP 7/11: Great entries so far! Let's keep it up ...

COMMENTS CLOSED: It's going to the judge! Stand by for some serious consideration of the entries ...
