Non Sequitur “Sign-Off” contest voting begins

Posted by
December 8, 2009

A couple of weeks ago, I told you about a new Non Sequitur “Sign-Off” contest (think caption contest). Wiley and Universal Uclick editors have whittled the thousands of entries to four and they’re ready for your vote.

The final entries are (in alphabetical order):
“Entrée: Vous” – M. Cameron, Austin American Statesman
“Homme Cooking” – K. Lew, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
“Today’s Special: Chopped Sir-loin” – W. Parham, The Washington Post
“Today’s Special! Manwich” – J. Dorazio, The Times Beaver Newspapers Inc. Pennsylvania

Voting is open through Friday. The winner is announced in the strip that will appear Dec. 21.

Looks like my entree didn’t (sob) make the finals. Now to see if the one that I vote for wins. What a fun contest it was.

I don’t think they actually saw our entries Bob. How else can you explain why they weren’t picked! :O)

Danae’s dad was a newspaper man so I would just end with:
“-30-”

You are probably aware of this but,
“-30-” is a traditional closing for a press release. It probably started during the Civil War when telegraphers tapped “XXX” at the end of a transmission. XXX is the Roman numeral for 30.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
