Joel Wilmarth of Graybar Wins Inaugural Contest; New Cartoon Next Week

 
 

We received more than 50 submissions for our inaugural cartoon caption contest - most of them pretty darn good! We knew SCDigest readers could do it.

You will find our winning entry below, from Joel Wilmarth of Graybar. Congratulations! Sure made the crack SCDigest staff laugh. Below, we also publish what we felt were the next 10 best entries. As in several cases, there were very similar entries from different readers, especially around "green" and "lean," we went with the first one we received.

New cartoon next week! Have an idea for a cartoon? Send in your idea at the Feedback button below.
