It's Photo Friday!


Here we are with the first Photo Friday of 2010. PF runs monthly on Forensics and Faith. For you new readers, here's the scoop: Write the best caption, win your choice of one of my novels. Enter as many captions as you like. Come back over the weekend to read all the captions and vote on your favorite. Winner will be announced next Tuesday. Facebook friends--make sure to leave your captions here, even if you put them on Facebook.

This photo was submitted by Sheila Gerke. Since her picture was chosen for Photo Friday, she also receives a free book. Sheila calls herself a “glutton-reader. She "loves to read fast and can’t stop until there’s nothing left." Married for 29 years, she's been a church administrative assistant, but is currently unemployed after several moves. Join Sheila on Facebook here.

If you've submitted a picture for Photo Friday, I may still use it for another month. If you'd like to submit a picture, please send it as an attachment in an e-mail to: brandilyn (at) brandilyncollins (dot) com.

All right, we're off with our crazy photo. Bring on your captions.

Unfortunately, Bill's effort to welcome the aliens to Earth took a bad turn when he used the universal sign for "And yo mama's horse, too!"

Nice mushroom. Easy now.

You put your right hand here,
you see the leaf over there,
you hope nobody's lookin'
cause you're gonna pinch off a tear.

As the mushroom's sense of identity grew, it also felt for the first time the stirring of love, and thus began straining with every fiber of its being to reach out toward the object of its affection, the soft caressing creature that had awakened it from its fungal slumber.

Much room is needed for THIS mushroom!

Trembling with fear, the mushroom people worked frantically, filling their biosphere with toxins as they watched the giant hand from above slowly descend on their home. They knew their end was near, but at least they would not go alone. They would take the giant, unsuspecting creature down with them. Yes, vengeance is sweet...fungally sweet.

Honest, officer. It's just like I said. We were walking along, just laughing and talking, and I reached out to take her hand and poof, she was gone and this is what I saw.

Peggy Blann Phifer said...

Oh, no, she's gonna touch me. No, no! You're supposed to kiss me! (who wrote this tupid script, anyway? I'm tired of squatting here all day and this costume itches like the dickens.) C'mon, girl, KISS ME!

"Sweetie, I found the last biscuit. Did you reach the contractor yet?"
