A picture to caption, and possibly my most favourite video ever

The events of the last weekend with the G20 deserve serious blogging, and I do hope to find the time to do that serious writing soon. Right now, I'm weighed-down doing serious day job writing. In the interim though, I do want to share two things.

One is this photo from the G8 in Huntsville of Stephen Harper and British PM David Cameron, which I think is richly in need of captioning because the look on Harper's face is just priceless. My contribution is below, feel free to leave your's in the comments.

Cameron: Steve - can I call you Steve? - Steve, let me tell you why post-election coalitions are excellent ideas...

And the second is what may possibly be my favourite Youtube video ever:

Caption this photo of Stephen Harper

The Stephen Harper PMO is very concerned about controlling the message, and controlling the image. His psychic stylist travels everywhere with him, and a flood of carefully-staged photos of the PM are regularly dispatched to the press.

I'm guessing this photo, however, wasn't approved by the PMO. (Actually, it was shot by Chris Wattie of Reuters).

Do what you can with those bags under my eyes. I was up all night not writing a book on hockey.

What's your caption for this photo? Leave your suggestions in the comments.

Caption this photo!

A photo that must be captioned, from Reuters.

B: "No, Stephen Harper. You need your own environmental policy!"
S: "I'm sorry, Mr. President."

U.S. President Barack Obama (R) greets Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper at the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington April 12, 2010. Obama opened a 47-nation summit dedicated to keeping nuclear arms from terrorists and planned to seek momentum in his push for a new round of sanctions on Iran.

Caption Tony Clement

We haven't had a good caption contest in awhile, so here's a good pic of Tony Clement.

Caption away!

Caption this pic

This picture on the Globe Web site from Harper's thus far disastrous trip to a climate change conference in Africa just begs for a caption contest.


My submission?

"Wow man, look at my hand! I mean, wow! My fingers are, like, moving man, wooooo!"

UPDATE: Rather than download the pic I'd just linked to the Globe site, and it seems they've taken the pic down. So, I guess the captioning fun is over. Trust me though, 'twas a hilarious pic.
