My original caption: “Whoa . . . there’s been a terrible mistake. Only the character I played in a soap opera was supposed to be killed off.”
Congratulations, Pat Foley, on your fifth victory. Your very first win was not that long ago, in Contest No. 178, so you’ve really been racking those wins up in a fairly short time. Keep it up . . . and remember to remind everyone that once again you have been officially declared “one of the funniest people around.”
