Just had to chime in with how much I enjoyed Paul's Lois babble: you can't go charging for an unsolicited service! like those guys who come up to your car and wash your windshield when you're stopped at a red light. they ask to be paid, but they don't demand it. It was great! Get a good pic, Paul! Artemis

kathy and anyone else scared of posting pics: please don't let that stop you from posting captions. they're really fun. i wouldn't want to miss out on any good ones, nor do i like the idea that people are keeping themselves out of the fun simply because they're afraid they'll win. so, i'll try to walk you through it. if you still need help, ask here or over in the techie folder. if you're still scared, find a pic, tell me where it is and exactly which one, and i'll post it for you. first off, there's the picture posting FAQ which has step-by-step instructions. but, to go over them again from my own perspective (which may make more sense to some and less to others)... step 1: find a picture you want to post. for this thread, i reccomend christiane's site, which can be found here. scroll down to the list of ep summaries, click on the ep of your choice, and wait for it to load. her summaries are chock full of screencaps. step 2: find the address of the picture. to do this, right-click on the picture you've selected. this will bring up a menu of options that will allow you to do any of several things (like save the picture, email a copy of the picture to someone, set the picture as your windows background, etc). from the menu, choose "properties." it should be the last option on the list. the picture properties will include information about the format and size of the picture and suchlike. close to the middle of the properties window, there will be one that says "address (URL)". next to that, there will be the address of the picture. 3. copy the address. just highlight the full url and hit control-c to copy. it should look something like this: http://www.iph-grenzdyck.de/christiane/lnc01/01-03.jpg 4. put the picture in a boards post. there are two ways to do this. you could type out {img}address of the picture{/img} (but with square brackets instead of curly ones) or you could click the "instant UBB code" button that says "image." if you use the img tag, just write "[img]" then paste the address you copied (hit control-v or right-click on the cursor and choose "paste") then write "[/img]". make sure to use the correct brackets and to leave no spaces. if you use the image button, a window will pop up asking for the address of the picture. just paste it in there (hit control-v or right-click and choose "paste") and then click "ok". what that will do is simply to type in the img tag for you. and that should do it. add the post, and you should see the picture. you may have trouble if the picture you copied is from a site like geocities, which doesn't allow you to copy pictures onto other websites, but in most cases, it should work. if it doesn't show up, double-check the code.. make sure the address pasted properly, that you used the right brackets, that there are no spaces, and that it says "img" in the brackets before the address and "/img" in the brackets after the address. hope that helps. if you have any questions, just ask. Paul

that big long post and no Hatman caption...! -Breanna (who immediately thought of those dancing guys on stage with the hats and canes when she saw the picture, but couldn't bring herself to even try to think up a situation like that for Clark)

If we're very quiet, the monster won't hear us...
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

sorry, breanna. didn't think i was supposed to caption my own pics. i like your thought. never even crossed my mind. were you going for something like this? "... da da da dada HA!" "clark, why are you tap-dancing in the middle of the night?" "just... uhm, practicing." but, come on.. not a single caption starting with "clark, what are you doing in my bedroom?!" somebody's got to have a good one... hmm. now i'm looking at it and straying towards some weird ones... "somebody's been sleeping in my bed, and she's still there! rrrrRRRR!" maybe this wasn't the best choice, after all... Paul

Okay, Lois - *okay*! I'm sorry I had to gag you, but you just wouldn't calm down and stop babbling. Yes, I'll be *happy* to go get those Double Fudge Crunch Bars for you. Yes, and some Chinese. Not from Ralph's Pagoda. Of course not. From Beijing, naturally. Just... hold on... okay???

I'm with Kaethel. These are hysterical. The wabbit one sent me off into gales of laughter and I couldn't stop long enough to tell Stuart why. Just had to point at the screen and then he just gave me one of his 'I live with an insane woman' looks. (He's practised that one a lot over the years) LabRat

okay, this is a tough one... i'm assuming kae's "i'm not worthy" is supposed to be a caption... clark having a wayne campbel-esque reaction to seeing lois, which is rather amusing, but not as good as her sneak away from the angst fic one. i burst out laughing at breanna's suggestion of a vaudville tap number, but she didn't come up with an acutal caption. so many good ones. but i think i'm going to have to go with jen's... "Lois, just put down the spatula and step away from the kitchen slowwwly." that one just hit me right... my only hesitation was that i knew from context that lois was in bed (the pic, btw, was taken from just say noah... they're in the cabin, and clark's been floating around because they agreed not to share a bed). when jen pointed out, however, that the bed was not at all visible in the pic, that objection went away. so, you're up, jen!

ROTFL. I had wayyy too much fun picking one out...too many hilarious expressions out there, especially from The Rival...but I finally decided to settle for one with a supporting character/guest star type thing. Let's see what you guys can come up with. Oh, right, I guess I should caption it since Paul captioned his... Lois: Two words, Linda, professional hairstylist. Never try and highlight your hair on your own again.

Linda: Lois, I know you're in love with Clark who wouldn't? The guy's gorgeous! But that doesn't mean that I can't have a piece of him.
Lois: That is it Linda! If you don't shut up about Clark's attributes I'm gonna skin you alive! He's mine! Got that? Mine! No one especially you is gonna sink your claws into that gorgeous body of his and believe me you'll pay if you do! Too bad we're tied up right now or you would have known just why they call me Mad Dog Lane!
