WE HAVE A WINNER FOR OUR 276TH CAPTION CONTEST!

Our writers dutifully voted for their #1 and #2 captions. Each #1 vote is worth 4 points; each #2 vote us worth 2 points.

And the clear winner, with two #1 votes and three #2 votes, totaling 14 points, is:

Brian!

Here is his caption:

“Capitol Tour for MAGA supporters cost = 30 + years in Jail
Seeing perpetrators of J6 hoax getting caught = PRICELESS”

GregB (with two #1 votes) and vett (with one #1 vote and two #2 votes) are in 2nd place, each with 8 points:

GregB: “To borrow a famous quote from JFK and to modernize it: Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what your country will do TO you if you dare to stand up to election corruption and make your voice heard. The many J6 victims (including DJT himself) have now found this out the hard way and are paying a heavy price for not recognizing the set-up trap for what it really was that day.”

vett: “Just for coming in today, you have won an all expense paid extended stay in beautiful DC. Room and board is included.”

WELL DONE, EVERYONE!

Congratulations, Brian!

It’s good to be a Congress critter!

I haven’t checked my investment account in a couple of weeks because the last time I did, it was just too darn depressing.

Shocking no one, therre is an apparent way to avoid this: become a member of the U.S. Congress!

From Daily Mail:

“Investors dedicate countless hours to solving the mystery of how to beat the stock market – and many lose millions of dollars in the process.

But the answer might be simple: Just copy Congress.

A tool which copies trades made by members of Congress and their families has gained nearly 20 percent this year – performing twice as well as the stock market average of eight to ten percent.

And a separate tool which is dedicated to tracking Nancy Pelosi‘s investments reveals her portfolio has returned a remarkable 50 percent in the last 12 months, vastly outperforming the 17 percent gains of the benchmark S&P500 index of America’s top companies.

The tools were created by Quiver Quantitative, which uses public disclosures from members of Congress to mirror their trading activity and track the results.

The disclosures reveal some politicians have displayed a near-prophetic ability to invest in companies just days before their stock prices explode. Some sit on congressional committees linked to the firm’s they’ve invested in.

James Kardatzke, CEO of Quiver Quantitative, told DailyMail.com: ‘You can almost certainly see instances where there seems to be people acting on information that they may have been receiving in committee meetings, or may have been receiving just based on the nature of their job.’

Quiver Quantitative has singled out several trades for their success. None of the members of Congress have been accused of insider trading. 

Quiver Quantitative’s separate tracker for Nancy Pelosi’s trading activity has returned around 50 percent since last December. Pelosi has profited hugely from massive gains this year in the stock price of Nvidia, the chipmaker whose valuation has passed $1 trillion thanks to the AI boom. Pelosi also owns millions of dollars worth of Microsoft and Apple stock, which have both risen by around 55 percent since the beginning of the year.

Current rules allow members of Congress to trade stocks freely, but they must report their trading and they are barred from using non-public information to inform their purchases. But the fine for lawmakers who break the rules is typically just $200.

No matter how we vote, we just can’t seem to drain this:

Meet Poppy the Prairie Dog!

I’ve never heard of anyone having a prairie dog as a pet. This one was rescued and is too domesticated to be released into the wild.

Cute thing!

The January 6 conspiracy Caption Contest

This is our  world-famous 277th Caption Contest!

Here’s the video:

About the video: The video shot from the east side of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, shows a police officer waving in Trump supporters, signaling them to disregard barricades. Snopes, however, insists the video to be false and claims that a second video shot from a different angle  debunks this rumor. Below is the supposed debunking video that, to me, is just confusing and does not show the first video to be false.

You know the drill:

  • Enter the contest by submitting your caption as a comment on this thread (scroll down until you see the “LEAVE A REPLY” box).
  • Body and Soul‘s writers will vote for the winner.
  • Any captions proffered by our writers, no matter how brilliant (ha ha), will not be considered. :(

This contest will be closed at the end of Tuesday, Nov. 28, 2023.

‘To get the contest going, here’s my caption:

But the media and TPTB insist there’s no such thing as conspiracies!

Friday Animals ❤️

Below is a video of woodland animals seen through the creative lens of Julian Rad, an award-winning wildlife photographer based in Central Europe.

It’s quite amazing the animals allow Rad to get so close.

I suggest you mute the sound or lower the volume.

WE HAVE A WINNER FOR OUR 276th CAPTION CONTEST!

Our writers dutifully voted for their #1 and #2 captions. Each #1 vote is worth 4 points; each #2 vote us worth 2 points.

It’s too bad their parents didn’t support abortion as strongly as they do.

Brian Heinz and Goldbug are in 2nd place, each with one #1 and one #2 votes, totaling 6 points each:

Brian Heinz: “Baby killers we are,
Wear our medals like stars.
Look into our eyes
Where the evil resides.
We’re Abortion Czars,
It’s where our hearts are.
Innocent killing is what we do.
Times a-wasting
No babies for you.
Taking you down
Depopulation’s all around.”

Goldbug: “We morons are proud members of the Democrat Death Cult.”

Gracie Storvika (with one #1 vote) and another Goldbug caption (with two #2 votes) are in 3rd place, each with 4 points:

Gracie Storvika: “Good golly! Why end with just getting rid of innocent babies–why not apply the same logic to the other end of the spectrum . . . after all both of these individuals appear to be past their preferred expiration dates. Perhaps they need to be sent on their ways also. I mean really, where does it end?”

Goldbug: “Look closely; their pins say, ‘We’re proof you can’t fix stupid.'”

True Dan is in 4th place, with one #2 vote and 2 points:

Whose lives does abortion care save?

WELL DONE, EVERYONE!

Congratulations, GregB!
