Photo Caption Contest
Most people would look at this photo and think, "my, what a cute ring-tailed lemur, the most terrestrial of the lemurs and, outside of zoos, found only on the island of Madagascar."
Others, though -- most Gazette readers, included -- will readily anthropomorphize this character and record their witty remarks in the comment section.

Winners will be obvious.
Hmpf....
Look at that...
A baby squirrel.
Wonderful.

Okay...

Posted by: gwynne at November 14, 2006 12:38 AMHere's what immediately popped into my mind, from the inimitable Dr. Seuss:
And deep in the Grickle-grass, some people say,
if you look deep enough you can still see, today,
where the lemur once stood
just as long as it could
before somebody lifted the lemur away.
What was the lemur?
And why was it there?
And why was it lifted and taken somewhere
From the far end of town where the Grickle-grass grows?
The old Once-ler still lives here.
Ask him. He knows.
I've hobnobbed with the lemurs on the island of Madagascar. They are among God's most adorable creatures...until they decide they want your banana.

"If Eric had taken my picture, I would be face down flat on my stomach and not out on a limb..."
