Friday Funny: Snowman Surprise
It’s Friday! We have made it through the week and it’s time to celebrate with a little humor. Here’s a new cartoon from data center artist Diane Alber.
She writes, “The holiday season is upon us and I thought it was only fitting to try and incorporate that in a comic. . .”
And here it is! Enter your caption suggestions below.
How The Contest Works
Here’s how it works: We provide the cartoon (drawn by Diane) and you, our readers, submit the captions. We then choose finalists and the readers vote for their favorite funniest suggestion. The winner will receive their caption in a signed print by Diane.
Submit your captions in our comments!
Please visit Diane’s website Kip and Gary for more of her data center cartoon humor. To see our previous cartoons, visit Data Center Knowledge’s Humor Channel.
