London, ON, May 2008 [Click to enlarge]
This is either the aftermath of our exuberant Father's Day 2008 celebrations or the interior of a long-forgotten structure on a similarly forgotten stretch of road in my burg. Either way, it's a scene that's ripe for your caption suggestions. So I'll turn it over to you...
Your turn: Please suggest a caption for this photo. Just click the comment link below and go nuts. You may submit as many captions as you wish - I'm a sucker for multiple-submitters. Be as funny as you can - we all need a good laugh these days. I'll post a new Caption This photo next Sunday.
About last week's desolate service station photo: I think I must be going through a morose phase in my photographic life, as I keep posting sad-looking views of my world. Sorry.
Honorable menschens go to the following excellent folks:
- Terri: "Chew on this!"
- Awareness: "Redneck one stop shopping."
- The Imaginary Reviewer: "While it did nothing for their lap times, the new pit lane addition was highly appreciated by all the NASCAR drivers."
- Anne: "Got Milk?"
- Robin: "Counter intelligence."

That's kind of a sad photo really. I wonder what stories the walls could tell before they disappear for good?
ReplyDeleteEither way it looks like a bomb has gone off! So my attempt is:
"Who left the gas on?"
"I was going for open concept, What do you think?"mrburns22
