Welcome Juggleers and Jugglitos, to a new monthly feature here at eJuggle, the “Funny Caption” contest. I had hoped to start this off with the New Year, but January and February slipped by me. March seems as good a time as any. So, each month I will post a fun, unusual, and hopefully rare, juggling-based image along with a “funny caption” to start things off. Post your entries, and we here at eJuggle will judge the funniest one, and announce a prize winner (or two) the following month when the new image is posted. Sound Like fun? Sure it does.
Here we go with “Funny Caption Contest” Photo #1. My caption to prime the pump is: “Lupie and Manuel were not only great tortilla makers, but excellent jugglers. Once they discovered the perfect way to combine the two, into a method of drying the tortillas, work was never boring again.”
Good luck everyone. Have fun. I look forward to reading your entries.
Sincerely,
Steve Langley aka Alfredo Fettucini aka The Paddle Ball King

Once Juan and Sofia whipped out their tortilla routine, the competition was a “wrap”.
Note: While not visible in the image, it is reported that each tortilla contained the face of Jesus.

“I’ll pass.”
Soon Ethel got hungry, and converted the juggling exhibition to a demonstration of the phases of the moon.
“And if we pose like this for the photo, it will look like we’re juggling the windows!”
