And the choices are:
1) "Lyle's compulsive pursuit of beaver has some dire consequences."
2) "Hadassahchana begins to suspect that perhaps it is possible to use too much manure."
3) "It was a dark and stormy night..."
4) "Paging Paul Bunyan....Mr. Paul Bunyan to Green Street please"
5) "So, did it make a sound?"
6) "The Johnsons just couldn't get the knack of cultivating bonsai."
7) "Ed? Next time you deliver firewood I'd like it chopped a little smaller. No, I didn't measure it, but I'm pretty sure it won't fit in the fireplace."
8) "George," asked Mrs. Washington suspiciously. "How did that cherry tree wind up across our front lawn?"
9) "I don't know, Gert! Did you hear rain last night?"
10) "The Sanitation Department requests that you bag your Christmas trees before placing them at curbside for removal. Thank you for your cooperation." |

Oh, man. These are hilarious.
I was quite certain that I was going to pick #2. But I think I laughed even louder at #5.
And I'll definitely have to do some author-guessing on this one. Later. |

I must confess! My contribution is so bad that I'm embarrassed. I was actually about to PM Janice to kill it, and replace it with something else, but I saw that the captions were already posted. I know that I'm not nearly as funny as many other posters, but this contribution is just bad so: I confess - I wrote 9!
Now, please proceed with guessing on the funny entries! |

I'll have you know that I like #9. Don't go insulting my taste like that.

Well, Sara!
No disrespect intended, but #9 really dosn't stand up to the competition. Some people found some REALLY funny captions for this post. I did better on other photos!
Anyway, I'll guess:
#8 - Cindy
#5- Sara (Taurus)
#10 - MJ
#2 - TheEye - (who wouldn't be beyond the diversionary tactic of being torn between her own and someone elses post) |

#5 is taurusmoon. Would you like to make more guesses, have a cast of characters, or just see the answers at this point?

Dear theworm,
I appreciate your crediting me with being prolific, but I submitted only one of the entries. And it isn't one of the ones you guessed.
I hope that helps. But if it doesn't, you can't possibly guess worse than I have in past games.
Best wishes,
Peter |

I'm ignoring Peter's rather frightening comment.
Unless anyone has more guesses I'll be posting the authors in the morning.
