Row to the Pole photo caption contest

The image below is from the Whisky powered  Row to The Pole publicity stunt.

It needs a caption. I’m sure WUWT readers will be able to provide several.

My caption suggestion is below. Winner gets 1000 carbon credits in a frameable certificate, redeemable someplace, but not here.

Or more simply put….
Bewildered rowers thought they found the pole, only to discover it was an optical Aleutian.
Rowers dig a hole in the ice so the north magnetic pole can poke through …

“Research proves Eskimo ice breakers carbon footprint much smaller than hydrocarbon powered ice breakers! With government subsidies, the Northwest passage could be the next job boon for unemployed Americans.”

With the Eddy Minimum in full swing, the lead pair at the Chicago Summer Golf Classic again made it to the third hole before being chased off by polar bears.

Oh just bust it up and stop worrying. We’ll photoshop ourselves out of the pic later.

Are you stupid? OF COURSE we’ll photoshop the pickaxe out of the pic as well as ourselves.

That’s exactly the right pose I think. Snap the shot already, we’ll photoshop the iceberg in later.

August 23, 2011 9:11 pm

First we gotta whack the baby seals. Now we gotta whack the baby Polar Bears — and the whiskey ain’t helping!

I love reading all these captions, but my favorite so far is from Poptech:
“EPA Approved Ice Breaker.”
Thanks for the belly laugh!

I’m not playing…I can’t afford to be given free carbon credits…

Take the d@&(^!! pic already! It’s over 90 degrees in the studio AND we’re in these f$^%&ing parcas, we’ll die of freakin’ heat exhaustion, we’ll photoshop the d^%$% iceberg in later.

All right, whose the moron who photoshopped this thing? You put me holding the pickaxe backwards!

OF COURSE the pickaxe has to be the right way, that’s why the photoshop guy is reversing it!
What?
NO! You can leave DATA reversed, it doesn’t work for pickaxes!
What do you mean why?
BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE KNOW WHICH WAY A PICKAXE GOES, THAT’S WHY!
