We're halfway through the first round of the caption contest and all those fabulous prizes, including a talking George W. Bush doll, are still up for grabs. Thus far, it's been a fabulous success. Three people (!) have entered with over four days left until the deadline for entries. At this rate, the number of contestants will no doubt top the six (!!!) that participated in Welcome to Blog's last contest.

Despite the unexpectedly high number of early entries, to make things even more exciting I've decided to drag the contest out here onto the main page of the site. Now there are two ways to play. You can post a caption on the contest message board AND/OR the comments area below this post. For complete rules and info on the prizes, click here or on the link provided above.

And here's the picture:

Simply come up with a caption for this Photoshop-ed encounter between Bush and Miss Oregon in a Wendy's and you too will have a chance at winning your very own talking GW doll. Nine out of ten gun-totting Ashland Republicans agree: he looks absolutely adorable in his little Eddie Bauer outfit.
