"So, Doc... If I was in the desert and saw a rainbow in the sky over a giant egg frying in the sand, surrounded by hungry-looking skeletons... that would be a mirage, right?"

Seems it wasn't that hot in the middle of the desert after all - that egg took ages to eventually cook.

Well, two captions are vying for the win, with both springyzone and twyngwyn having taken the lead with 5 votes.

I am torn between these. Both appeal to my sense of humour. One plays on the old "which came first" joke, and the other is a clever play on existentialism. Both use the skeletons and the egg to make their statement...

In the end, it's just not possible for me to decide on the basis of which appeals to me more. As soon as I mentally chose one, the other tugged at me so that my mind said, "But no, this one!" So... I have made an arbitrary decision RIGHT NOW, based on which was posted first, and thus gone with springyzone's caption.

Congratulations, springy!

Oh my goodness, I had forgotten all about this. I will see what I can find in the way of odd photos asap!

PS Twyngwyn, you were just unlucky as I thought yours was pure gold. LOL
