<p>I&#8217;ve been running the OTB Caption Contest since November 2004. So this month marks the 5th year of purveying moronic humor. With the exception of a few weeks each summer OTB has run two contests a week. I&#8217;m going to take a couple of more weeks off this month, not because of the not so onerous burden of running the caption contest, but my grandson, and first grandchild, was born this morning, and I&#8217;ll be traveling across country to visit my daughter for a few weeks. I&#8217;ll return around the week of Thanksgiving. &#8212; rodney </p>
