As the countries in the middle-east fall like dominos to anarchy, or even worse, democracy our gas prices here in the U.S.A. go higher and higher and higher.  Your mission, if you decide to accept it, is to create a one panel comic that describes how the high cost of gas, oil, fuel petrol etc. has affected you or those you know or those you'd like to know. Ya know? 

I'd like to have at least 20 entries before I judge on March 10th, 2011.  If I have fewer than 20 I'll still judge on the 10th but I'll be angry....and you won't like me when I'm angry.  Hell...you don't like me NOW! 

On your marks...get set...GO!

56... 56.

OPC 56: GAS FOR SALE!

A lot of people don't understand that the process of creating humor involves producing copious amounts of gas as well. Ohhh... If only it was petroleum based... I'd be wealthy.

CC 470: Wasn't there a song about this 'republic'? by bigworm 2-25-11

Ahoy "Monkeynannerland"! Are you ready for the tourists? I am so very proud to say that my company hauled the first load of 'monkeynanners'. So, where are they? So you're saying... you had truck-loads of 'monkeynanners' yesterday... ... but you have no 'monkeynanners' today? Yes.

OPC 56: Doffing The Burka!

Sir... would you share with our viewers the effect that the raising of gas prices has had on you and your life? You mean 'North Africa Gone Wild'? I love it! It's given me hope! I hope it means soon we'll be seeing Muslim women flashing their titties on dvd.

'Kay. Why Not?

I find myself homeless and penniless due to the price of crude. Damn my addiction to petroleum jelly.

C'mon March 10th!  The volumn of entries are killing me!

OPC 56: The rising price of gas, and the effects thereof.

Could you please say that again for our viewers who didn't catch it the first time? Why certainly, I'd be pleased to... "Mojonswankin!"

Finally, it's Mar. 10th!  Nowhere near the 20 entries I hoped for but hey, I wanted to be born ugly and I didn't get THAT either. Oh well...win afew; lose a few.

At any rate, it's time to announce the winner. 

The winner is...........

Four_Legged_Tripod for "Kay.  Why Not?"

Honorable mention goes to bigworm for being the most persistant entrant.

Well thanks.  Thanks very much.  New OPC coming up.
