Caption contest: Let's talk turkey

[Don Morris | Times]

We believe marriage should be between one man and one turkey. Just kidding! But that's the kind of sophmoric one-liner we hope to get in our Thanksgiving caption contest. Write a funny suggestion for what these characters may be saying.

The best captions will be published in the St. Petersburg Times on Nov. 23 and the top 3 will win prizes. Please include your name and e-mail if you'd like to be considered for the contest. The deadline for entries is Nov. 19.

So, come on. Let's talk turkey.

*I've removed a phone number listed in comments (we'll hold onto that in case it's a winning entry). Best to just leave your name & e-mail address.

Merry Christmas Bob! You're a little early Tom. It isn't even Thanksgiving yet. Oh...I know Bob, but if you don't mind. I'd rather forget about that holiday!

Well, I lost my job, my house, my car and my wife left me. This economy really stinks! What do I have to be thankful for? "You still got me friend." Oh yeah....Happy Thanksgiving!
