I recently rejoined TrekBBS after an absence of many years. Thanks, TBonz, for reinstating me without breaking me down to a Yeoman. Back in ancient times, before the invention of YouTube, just seeing screen caps posted on a website was huge. And then...high definition screen caps! Be still...

Let's go from one three day contest to another. I'll change this out again on Sunday. The new one will feature pictures that never happened. But first, our winners. Attaboys go to The Laughing Vulcan and Triskelion, with a photoshop award to Gary7. Who knew two guys and a box could be so...

This was a three day contest that turned into a nine day one. Oh well. Shatmandu got it right. I finished mixing and mastering my Hans Mayer CD this last week. It took thirty nine days to go from recording the first notes to a completed master. That's record time, especially for a band...

One half week contest down and another one will start right now. Our winners for the first part of the week were Rat Boy and Gertch, with an inspired photoshop winning entry by Nerys Myk. Here are the pictures for the second part of the week. I'm anxious to find out what Bones is watching...

It was said best by TLV: He went into TrekBBS lore, TLV. I'm glad Rat Boy is around to remember these kind of anniversaries. I certainly don't. Last week it was a first time win for Gary7 and a second wins for both 26138 and Mistral. Keep up the good work, guys. :techman: Rat Boy can't...

I've got to tell you my all-time favorite joke: Farmers grow apples where I live. I was driving through an orchard last fall when, turning a corner, I saw a farmer under an apple tree with pigs all around him. I stopped and watched the farmer grab a pig and held it up in the tree. The farmer...

I want to thank you all for your patience with my changing this caption contest out. It has been a busy week, as I explained in the last thread. It seems like people have been having fun, though, with over 2,800 views of the last contest. Maybe I should record an album every month. ;) I must...

Village Photos is back to working fast so let's change out the contest while the changing is good. This mini-contest was won by the regulars. Attaboys go to Nerys Myk, Triskelion and highlander. This puts highlander into double digits for wins and gets Nerys Myk to within spitting distance of...

A few posters have suggested that we use pictures in the caption contest from the great Re-used Props thread. Who am I to argue with folks this wise? In fact, we'll make it a double special contest. We'll also make this caption contest one of our three day ones. I'll change it out again on...

250 entries in the caption contest in 8 days! That's doing your job, folks. Keep it up. This next one I promise will be a shorter contest. I'll change it out next Monday. Last week, first time winner Toban Kal worked with the always funny DrBob to tag team a caption. Shatmandu and middyseafort...

The contest being judged today ran for eight days. This next week's contest will be similarly long. I'm traveling starting tomorrow and it's just too hard to change this out on the road. Just a heads up so you can start writing "too long a contest" jokes right now. It was good the contest...

There were eleven pages of entries in last week's contest. I can't remember the last time there were so many. My rough cut of possible winners was sixteen captions, again an unusually high amount. That was a good contest. It was also successful in that we had two first time winners last week...

It's a tragic event, with somebody killed, but still, it's a great headline. From today's edition of my local paper, the La Crosse Tribune: Pickup vs. semi fatality in Trempealeau County I'm going to send this one into Jay Leno. (and it's pronounced Tremp-e-low. Trempealeau is also the...

I select possible pictures for this contest in batches. I'll often save half a dozen at a time. I pulled the Harry Mudd picture months ago. I've been sitting on it since then, wondering if it was funny enough. Well, yeah... :rolleyes: But as funny as all of those are, this one was the...

Happy 2009, everyone. May it be a prosperous, peaceful and funny new year! Last week I couldn't make up my mind as to the winners. This week was the opposite. I knew before I sat down this morning who the winner of one of the captions would be. Another was decided very early on in my willowing...

For the last contest of 2008, we have something that has never happened before. I've always been able to pick a winner for each picture. There's always been one caption that's clearly been better than the rest. But not this time. For the Kirk's Awesome! picture, it was a three way tie this...

Here in La Crosse, we are on our way to breaking our all time record for snowfall in December. I'd much rather be changing out this contest than shoveling more snow. Here's a picture of my best friend cleaning out his driveway: And a humorous blog entry he wrote about the experience...

I don't know why I'm changing out this contest at 9 PM at night. I could have easily done it between noon and 3 PM this afternoon. God knows I wasn't doing anything important, like listening to the Packers blow a game the fourth week in a row. I just keep telling myself it could be worse. Forest...

One thing about my being a Green Bay Packers fan is that I became one thirty years ago, when Lynn Dickey was our quarterback and Bart Starr was our coach. The Packers may suck this year but we don't suck as much as we did back then. Being a Packers fan builds patience. Last week we had a new...

One of my closest friends has been battling addiction to crack over the past three years. His other drug of choice is alcohol. Bill has been in and out of rehab and has been unable to remain sober for longer than 90 days. Mostly he manages four to six weeks sober between multi-day binges. It has...
