"OctoMom called about the pianos -- she'd like to know the delivery date."

The three finalists:
In my extremely humble opinion almost all of ours were better than any of those, even mine.
And several were spectacularly better than any of those three.

I didn't send mine in, because I don't want fame.
Also because many of the others here were much better.

Those are terrible. The New Yorker I remember was a very witty magazine. Further proof of the decline of western civilization.

Maybe someone should set up a poll so we could vote on ours, establish our own winner?
Slow down and do it right.

I've heard the cartoonists all hate this contest. I've noticed the drawings for it are all pretty bizarre -- like from the bottom of the reject pile.

Agree totally.
....The New Yorker I remember was a very witty magazine....
It was? I could never tell because I never "got" their stuff.
Well I guess I did get it once.....
There was a cartoon with this guy sitting in a doctor's consultation room, and the doctor is talking to him, only the doctor is a
cat . And the doctor says:
"I'm ordering a CAT scan."
I did get that one.

I think it's a fair statement that none are worse.

Somehow that last thing reminds me of a recent piano contest.....

I'm thinking that the folks at the New Yorker probably don't get piano humor. They probably don't even have a piano. (maybe just a small organ!) Oops! That one slipped!

I think in this case we need a cartoon to match the line.
