Humor and creativity to start the week: the Create-A-Caption contest is back
Several BSG readers (especially Ray) have reminded me that it's been a few weeks since we've had a Create-A-Caption here on the blog so I thought we'd start the week off with a light hearted post and some much needed open source creativity.
Here's how it works:
Look at the picture below (click to enlarge).
Think of a funny caption to go with the picture.
Post a comment with that funny caption (you can submit as many entries as you like).
At the end of the week the one that makes me laugh the most wins.
(I promise: I'll announce a winner to the contest this time!)
It was hard to object. Arnold, the new guy, was absolutely right, no one had told him to stack the Pepsi by starting with a bottom row and working up.

The truck thing made a little more sense after Bob told us that Arnold gets easily confused and his other part time job is in a laundry mat. But we all still wondered "How did he do it?"

Sarah didn't think the laundry had anything to do with it. As a third year psychology student she was certain she had read something about people like Arnold. She explained, "Those who experience childhood-clean-up-your-room-trauma (CCUYRT) as adults are unable to tolerate anything on the floor. And they will go to great lengths to satisfy the compulsion." Everyone said it was the stupidest thing they had ever heard. However, Arnold fell in love that day with "the one woman who finally understood him."

Harold, the truck driver, didn't mind getting assigned what everyone referred to as "the upside down rig" until he saw his seat in the cab!

We've tried Pepsi-Free, Pepsi-Clear, and Pepsi-One. How about some Pepsi-Extra Light? Anyone?

It worked! It took a lot of time to remove two walls on the truck and to set up the camera on auto-shoot, but Sammy the assistant driver finaly had the picture to prove to Larry that he really needed to slow down before speed bumps.

No one could prove it was the guys from Coke but Wilma at the dollar store said last Thursday she sold 16 tubes of crazy glue to some men who left in a red truck.

New marketing campaign -"Why have a Rootbeer float, when you can have a PEPSI Float!"

Jim...I love the comment. So far, you're in the lead.

Bringing a little Earth to the Moon.
With the recent development of the gravitron wheel, this Earth style tractor trailor is able to drive along the surface at this model Lunar Living Station.

Headline: "Pepsi Products on the Rise: Another side effect of Junior joining Hendrick Motor Sports next year."*
* OK, I know I lose points for having to explain, but you see Jeff Gordon drives for HMS, Dale Senior hated Jeff Gordon, Pepsi sponsors Jeff, Jeff just passed Dale Senior on the career wins list and carried a "3" flag to honor Dale Senior, as a result Dale Senior fans pelted Jeff with Pepsi products on the track even though Dale Junior defended him, then Dale Junior left DEI (run by his Mom) and ironically joined HMS with Jeff and Pepsi will probably sponsor him. (you can laugh now) **
** As the Dad of a rabid NASCAR fan, I have to know these things.

And they thought they could fool us by filling the Diet Pepsi truck with 7-Up. Bad, bad Pepsi...

Pepsi introduces the first non-alcoholic cola product to be marketed as "Top Shelf"

The official policy at Pepsi was that "drivers were not permitted to put bumper stickers on company trucks" But they couldn't stopped Frank from whispering to himself throughout the day "Why be Normal?, Why be Normal?"

Traffic officer Harvey Snerd may have been compulsive about his job, but while most people were fixated on the unusual stacks of Pepsi bottles, Harvey was already mentally writing citations for failure to display a valid licence plate, improper lane change, failure to use a turn signal, and probably a blatant failure to comply with state seatbelt requirements.

Everyone in Pepsi's elite department of "Product Engineering and Disbursement" was congratulating each other on their ingenious prototype. "Suspended Accessible Bottle Bins" were going to revolutionize the world-wide daily distribution of 8 million bottles. That was until Herman actually tried to remove an overhead bin and was crushed by 212 lb.s of liquid refreshment.

Introducing the first Pepsi bottles with magnets in the base to stick to your dash, thus eliminating the need for cup-holders; unfortunately, Pepsi failed to remember they have steel roofs on their delivery trucks.
