Here's the next picture. One minor clarification: I will be accepting more than one caption from each player should anyone feel inspired to submit more than one. I never explicitly said one per customer but most of you have been sending just one. If this proves to be too much (if I get 30 entries, for instance), I might restrict things to one per customer at a later time. If anyone has a problem with this, please send me a PM with your reasons.
Janice

And the choices are:
1) "Hell's Angels blew away the competition at this year's National Cheerleading Finals."
2) "Saturday night on Lifetime Movie Network: The Flying Walendas 2. Injuries and age have grounded the tightrope walking family, but their spirt cannot be squelched."
3) "In response to rising fuel costs, the Syracuse University Bike Club carpools to Sturgis."
4)"Film critics agree that the new Wallace & Grommit feature is sadly derivitive, and that A Close Shave remains their finest creation."
5) "Do NOT try this at home after eating garlic!"
6) "Occasionally, the Flying Wallendas felt a need to just get away from it all."
7) "The Eighth Wonder of the World: the Great Pyramid of Kneivel."
8) "For a brief moment of glory, the game of Musical-Chairs-on-Motorbikes was starting to take a new form"
9) "You look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle built for 17"
10) "As a crowd watched on in horror, the Bejing soccer team unleashed their secret weapon in a last ditch attempt to tie the score."
11) "The Canadian Snowbirds arrive for spring training." |

I think that maybe 9 was Kurt.
I'm the worst guesser, but if you'll tell us who submitted, I might take a stab at more. |

Gee - I stink at this.
I guess I won't bother typing in the one that I thought TheEye wrote.
I'll guess Cindy wrote #8 and Kurt #5.
Now I'm done - TheEye can take over. |

Hmmm.... this is a tough one. The All Seeing Eye is feeling a bit myopic today.
