Cartoon Caption Contest No. 26 starts right now.
Briefly, here are the details: I’ll supply a drawing of one of my old cartoons that has never been published, leaving off my caption. You are invited to supply your funniest captions. Simply (1) click on ‘COMMENTS’ underneath the current drawing. Then (2) scroll down past all the other comments and type in your name and your caption in the spaces provided and (3) click on ‘Submit’. There is no limit on the number of captions you can submit for each drawing.
Because we're in a vacation period, this contest will be extended — entries will be accepted and posted for two weeks. The cut-off time and date for you to submit your captions for this contest is midnight Tuesday, August 23, 2011. At that time a winner will be announced and the winning caption will be printed. Below that I will also print my original caption.
I will be the sole judge. The winning caption will be the one I judge to be the funniest one submitted (not necessarily the one that matches or comes closest to my original caption).
Additional rules and regulations, for those of you who need such things, can be found here.
I promised you another beach scene, and here it is. Pretty straightforward — nothing too unusual going on here. Let's see what interesting and funny gags you can come up with.

Dad, if you hear a voice is coming from that shell it’s really me. I just learned to be a ventriloquist.

1. “What did you expect to hear from a shell you bought for a buck from a homeless man on the beach?”
2. “Pop, you forgot to take you medication again. Those voices you’re hearing are coming from your head, not the shell!”
3. “Of course you can hear the ocean waves…the ocean’s right behind you.”
4.” Don’t take it personally dad. All sea shells curse these days.”

Dad:
There is no way to fit an ocean wave in that little shell.
Dad:
That doesn’t look like the shell game they were talking about.
