And the Winners Are …
To decide which entries to include in the contest, I made a list of the entries with no names attached. Amoeba and I evaluated the entries to see if they were a Punny Monday style pun. ALL applicable puns were included in the voting.

Congrats to Linda!
I thought hers was the best as far as puns go. After reading all the entries I think you nailed it Linda.
I did LOVE Slipless In Seattle as a caption just didn’t fit the punny part for me. Sorry Thom.

Congrats to Linda. They were all real good. I’m no good at puns Carletta. No need to worry. As you can see I very rarely get one of them on a weekly basis. LOL But I try hard.

Congratulations Linda. I thought yours fit best, too, but I found them all good.
