Tenth Honorable Mention in BAR Cartoon Caption Contest
December 18, 2018
In the August/September 2018 Cartoon Caption Contest in the Biblical Archaeology Review, I made the online Honorable Mention List for the 10th time.
The cartoon showed Samson wielding the jawbone of an ass, while a donkey looking on and presumably saying something. I have the donkey saying, "To unleash the full power of the jawbone, Samson, shout ‘Hee Haw!’ as you swing it."

Ninth Honorable Mention in BAR Cartoon Caption Contest
August 17, 2017
In the May/June 2017 cartoon caption contest in the Biblical Archaeology Review, my submission made the honorable mention list.
The cartoon shows Jacob wrestling with the angel (Gen 32), and I have Jacob saying,
"I may be 97 years old, but on WrestleMania, they call me the Bruiser from Bethel."

Eighth Honorable Mention in BAR cartoon caption contest
February 27, 2016
Each issue of the Biblical Archaeology Review has a cartoon caption contest. I usually submit an entry. They pick a winner and two runners-up. And then online they have a longer list of "honorable mentions". I made that list for the eighth time with the Nov-Dec 2015 contest, which shows a boy on a department store Santa's knee holding a copy of the magazine. I have the boy saying,
"I want a codex of an apocryphal gospel, and this time no forgeries, OK?"

Another honorable mention in BAR caption contest
October 11, 2012
I almost always submit an entry for the cartoon caption contest in the Biblical Archaeology Review, but most of my ideas are rather lame.
Occasionally, though, I make the honorable mention list, as in July-August 2012. (My other honorable mentions were in Nov. 2006, Nov. 2007, and Sept 2010.)

BAR Cartoon Caption Contest
November 27, 2009
One of my favorite features in the Biblical Archaeology Review is the cartoon caption contest.
I always submit an entry. I've never won, but I have made the "honorable mention" list a couple of times--in Nov 2006 and Nov 2007. So I'll keep trying. Most of my attempts are rather lame, but occasionally I come up with a good one.
