COMPLETE THE CARTOON CONTEST (JULY 2008)
« on: July 01, 2008, 10:49:27 AM »
It's time for a new contest! Can you think of a funny caption for this cartoon? Mike and I came up with this image about heli-skiing during our skiing holidays last winter (obviously) but so far we couldn't think up a funny line that could go along with it. So, ladies and gentlemen, please go ahead!


We're already looking forward to your contributions! Those little contests always turn out to be a lot of fun!!

As for prizes: We'll have two this time!!

1) Everybody who participates will take part in a drawing for a Japanese Skywriter T-Shirt. So, don't be shy if you think you idea might not be the funniest one. Everybody has a chance to win!

2) And for the person who we think has the funniest idea (as usual this will be our discreet decision by intransparent and subjective criteria), will win a one year subscription to the brand new comic magazine "The Funniez", which will be launched in two weeks. You can already tell it is going to be an awesome paper, because it will feature the world's best comic strip! (No, not that one, not that one either, us, of course!!)

But, as usual, the most important part is not to win, but to take part! Have fun and knock yourselves out!  |:)\

Chuck logging "mountain time" for his résumé.

Heli-heliskiing: Really handy if you missed a gate.

Chuck's definition of "vertical reference work" (iirc this is a term used for slung load work and such?)

Heli-skiing: the funniest job on earth.

Hey, when you talked about "check out the new skids", you were meaning skis, don't you?

This way you don't need a lift ticket.

I wonder why the slopes are clear?

I'm beating those snowboarders down hill!

National News Reporter: "As you can see pilot's are become ever so resourceful to avoid paying user fees.  Enroute from the top of the mountain this adventurous pilot demonstrates the maneuverability of helicopters NEAR the ground. On a side note the local FAA office asked any and all persons with knowledge of who the pilot is to call them at 1-888-USER-FEE.  They will waive all fees for information about the pilot."

1.  "The secret to a successful run is maintaining the appropriate VSNO."

2.  "When life gives you KLMN012345Z01020KT1SMBLSNOVC005A2986, make lemonade."
