Friday Caption Contest Winner

By raincoaster

And the winner is: gamma, for the following gem.

Friday caption contest

“Absolut Americana” …I don’t think I’m legal to hawk this…

If you would like your little darlings to feature in future Friday Caption Contests, please save the picture as a JPG (400 pixels wide or narrower, plzthx) and email it to me at raincoaster at gmail dot com.  Soon, the glories of immortal fame and the indignities of being captioned (and perhaps even LOLed) will be theirs!

    Yay for gamma!




  2. gamma Says:

    Thank you; I am astonished and flattered. 😀

    But, seriously, what IS that thing she is holding?




  3. raincoaster Says:

    Congratulations. That thing is a bottle of “American Champagne” (I believe?) with which she is about to christen the ship. They wanted it done by virgins for superstitious reasons, and as you can see, they had to get them pretty young even then. The reason it looks so bizarre is that they braided it in corn husks so that when it broke, it wouldn’t put anybody’s eye out, which was commendable of them as well as allowing us, more than a century later, to make fun of them.

    It must be said that there were some good ones this go-round. It was a hard call.
