So each and every Friday we’re giving you a chance to set the story straight with our weekly caption contest. You submit your captions and over the weekend The Cereal List aggregate will convene a panel to narrow the field down to small set of finalists. The following Monday we’ll post the finalists and allow readers to select the winner.** The prize for winning: One of The Cereal List’s contributors will write a post on a subject of your choosing.

**Caption comments can be submitted without using real names but must include a working email address (which will not be published).
