Acrochallenge!

It's Monday, it's late, and it's time for everyone's favorite waste of time, acromania!

Let's talk about lies. Yes, those filthy rotten lies, nogoodniks that they are. See, I indulged in a tiny little baby bit of a lie only yesterday, in Picture Sunday. In the 7-11 Stroganoff I, well, I implied to you that in that cup right by the stroganoff was a blue Slurpee. This was in fact not a blue slurpee. I bought my items in B'burg and it's a 90-minute trip home, a blue Slurpee would not have survived. So instead I made a Slurpee out of a Blue Crapius which no, I did not drink afterwards, and so I kind of flat-out lied to you all.

What about other photo lies, though? You know, they're always talking about food ads, how there's generally Vaseline slathered over the hamburger bun to make it look better. And Aunt Tootsie's favorite picture of those ducks frollicking in her pond? Maybe they're nothing more than decoys she bought at the sporting goods store, and she laughs at you behind your back every time you compliment her on it. Or that picture of Jimmy on graduation day, with his parents, in his cap and gown. That was really made in April, the day his cap and gown arrived from the mail-order place.

And so tonight's topic, "Photo Lies."

All the rules are the same. Everyone gets three entries to come up with the best acronym they can that not only matches the topic above, but also the letters below which are randomly drawn from the acrobasket. The acrobasket once had people thinking he was three feet wide and velvet-lined, just from the angle of a photo. Then tomorrow night at 10pm est I shall be reading the entries and naming the winners, who'll get nothing, and the non-winners, who'll get nothing. And if that's not an incentive to excel, I don't know what is.

The topic, "Photo Lies." The letters:

P J B T S G

Now, stop posing and acro.

Betland's Olympic Update:
* OK, in this blog, Monday is Kooky-Eyed Fox day. Here's a picture taken by my long-lost cousin, of Kooky on stage plying his trade:



And another one, taken by me, of K-E F during the encore.

Paunches, jowls, blemishes, tummies suddenly gone!
Padded jugs, bigger tits, smaller guts.
Photos jimmied by the sales guys.
