Caption contest!
Tuesday, Apr 10, 2012 - Posted by Rich Miller * Yes, I swore on my life that yesterday’s post was the last roast story ever. But this isn’t a roast story. It’s just a caption contest featuring a pic of Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka and Rep. Jack Franks at my roast…  Winner gets something. I haven’t decided yet what it is.

JF - “Say it again …”
JBT - “‘Caption Contest’ means I am taking a nap”
- Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:05 am:
JF - “I’ll yell ‘What about Rod’ and your say …”
JBT - “What was HE thinking?”
- Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:07 am:
JF - (whispers) “…I.L.L. ..???”
JBT - “Jack, I went to Northwestern”
- CircularFiringSquad - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:09 am:
JBT: Wipe That Silly Smirk off your Mug or Capt Fax will put us in a caption contest
JF: Great…more free pub without doing anything meaningful.
JBT: Now let’s sneak out for a smoke

“No, Judy. It’s RICH Miller, not Roger Miller. He’s the King of the Dome, not the King of the Road.”
- Cincinnatus - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:11 am:
Judy is holding a paper describing Illinois’ budget problems. Jack is holding the solution…
- retired - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:13 am:
JBT: No, Lt. Colombo, I never said that.
- Ahoy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:14 am:
Jack, I’m glad to see you wearing the tie I bought you at the salvy.
- Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:15 am:
JF - “‘I met her on a Monday and my heart stood still’ …Judy?”
JBT - “I don’t sing duets, Jack.”
- unclesam - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:19 am:
JBT: “I’m sorry, I thought you were Larry Walsh.”
- Skeeter - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:22 am:
“There is nothing to worry about, dear. Fran Eaton says I’m also part of the Democrat Propaganda Machine. She says that about everybody including Dennis LaComb.”
- Steve Bartin - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:24 am:
JF- “Judy you look great.”
JBT-”Thanks, I don’t have much competition: after all Cook County brings out the best in me.”
- Give Me A Break - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:25 am:
JBT to JF: Hair coloring, look into it.
- Bill - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:26 am:
C’mon Jack! You can tell me…one Republican to another.
- railrat - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:26 am:
JF; “don’t tell nobody but I AM a Republican”!
JBT; “NO kidding?”
- just sayin' - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:26 am:
No I don’t have one Judy but I’m pretty sure you can’t smoke in here anyway.
- Skeeter - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:29 am:
I actually had a brain freeze and thought Jack Franks was a Republican, so my comment above makes little sense. In my defense, he often acts like a Republican, and it is still early so that may excuse my confusion.

Apollo Creed: Ain’t gonna be no rematch.
Rocky: Don’t want one.
- A Naughty Moose - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:33 am:
Must be a reverse negative. Franks isn’t to the left of Topinka on anything.
- Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:34 am:
JF - “Say that joke again …”
JBT - “If you don’t know why it’s funny, then I can’t help you.”
- wordslinger - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:34 am:
Gee, our hair smells terrific!
- Oswego Willy - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:35 am:
JF - “I would love to be on Chicago Tonight, I’m a huge fan.”
JBT - “Jack, Carol Marin is over there …”
- Michelle Flaherty - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:41 am:
Really, Rich? You’re taking a nap already.
- OneMan - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:49 am:
Can you believe what they charge for a drink here….
- @all - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:50 am:
How about winner gets Rich to come to their office to do their work while THEY take a nap.

If JBT is “Beans” (as in “counting beans”), then the caption is:
“Beans and Franks”
- Apple - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:56 am:
JDF: Thoughts on being my Lt. Gov?
JBT: Call me.
- OneMan - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 10:59 am:
Yes Judy that joke may kill most people because it is the funniest joke in the world that causes people to laugh themselves to death.
There is a chance, a small chance, that if you tell it even though it will kill the rest of the people in this room, that Mike Madigan may in fact crack a small smile…

Jack, if you want to do a puppet show, you need puppets on your hands.

JBT:”Really? What’s the surgeon’s name.”
- WazUp - Tuesday, Apr 10, 12 @ 3:27 pm:
You think that’s funny, I just had Miller’s car towed and placed in Rahm’s parking spot!

JF; Judy, you should invest some of the State’s money in Instagram. It’s going to make a lot of money someday.
JBT: Instagram? What the h*** is Instagram? Is that like a telegram? I can’t even get the State to invest in Coke or Pepsi.

You can be as charming as you want, Jack, but I’ll never agree to have my picture taken with you!

Franks: “Amazing. You’re the third impersonator I’ve bumped into this evening, and all of you look just like her, but ten years younger.”
JB: “It’s me, you twit. And this is the third time we’ve bumped into each other this evening.”
