UPDATE: THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED.
Think you’ve got the chops to be a photo editor?
Cult of Mac, in association with Hulger makers of the retro P*Phone handset adapter for Mac and iPhone, is sponsoring a week-long caption contest, the winner of which will win free-of-charge a spanking new Hulger P*Phone handset adapter, the retro iPhone adapter that reduces your exposure to cell-phone radiation by 95% and may cause people on the street to believe you are the Man from U.N.C.L.E., or Maxwell Smart, or someone with a hot-line to the White House, or – you get the idea.
Just reply in the comment section with your best caption for the photo above before midnight PDT on Sunday, August 17 and we’ll choose the winner on Monday the 18th.
You’ll get to pick your choice of available colors from Hulger and have this groovy, healthy handset delivered absolutely free.
Miss Moneypenny’s cell phone number is not included with this offer.

Ok, Heinrich, we’re coming back to Brazil.
Caption:
“Hello brother, mother requests that we come downstairs and fix the sewing machine”
“Hello brother, father’s calling and wants to know if you activated parental controls on his laptop”
“No, Mr Bond, we expect you to die!”
Jimmy, the boys from Atlanta say they want 80% on the deal, or they won’t invite us to their birthday party!
“You see, Batman, we just can’t keep giving you GoogleMaps directions whenever you’re lost. Yeah, yeah. Nokia Schmokia. Shut up, here they are.”
Come Play with Us, Danny…
…maybe you should hold the other piece as well…
I can’t hear anything add More Cowbell ?
And to think Hulger’s competition could only call Cupertino!
“Yeah, that’s right, the box you sent. It’s upside down!”
“Yes of course the Hulger is huger!”
“Yeah Hi…..Steve?….it’s about MobileMe…..it blew up again”
“Ja, mother — Hans und I will return air traffic control to zee proper authorities.”
Okay, wait for Ms. Yvonne to say “Credit Card Number Please” and tell her this number on the screen.
“Can you hear me now?”
Doctor, the time machine was a success. We have landed in the 50’s. No one suspect… except for the looks we’re getting for telephoning to our suitcase. And another thing, Doc. Our bodies were affected too, and I don’t think we’ll be able to drive that Chevy as planned…
Thank you for your donation
FRANS: “Hans, remember those twins I told you about … they want to hang out. Look up the Overlook Hotel.”
HANS: “They better be hot.”

Hello Batman we have another message from the Riddler.
Mr Gates, I assure you that we will beat Apple with this one. Vista 2010 comes with its own designer laptop hardware and state of the art telephony.
Cupertino . . . We’ve got a problem.
 Four is the new Forty.
“Yes, secret cloning project is complete success. Initiating phase 2 and vill destroy all records of process ven complete. Of course am talking on secure line!”
After wiring up the red phone they found in the trash, the twins quickly realized it wasn’t Santa’s Hotline. However, the Kremlin was more than happy to fulfill their wishes of stockings full of uranium and the name of a good arms dealer.
“Yeah, it’s the NASCAR commissioner on the line, even he thinks you overdid it on the corporate logos…”
JAWOHL!!! The DNA cloning went well. The whole party, including us, will be of age to take over soon. Now if we could figure out how to assemble this time machine we could go back and tell them to invade Russia one month sooner.
“mummy, how come he gets a cool macbook pro when all i get is this crappy phone!”
“Holy Smokes Batman, Commisioner Gordon is missing!”
“Hello, Steve? Hey! Um… we think that we have found you’re MacBook Pro.
Yes.
Yeah, the one with all the bumper stickers on it? Ok. Well, you see, when we opened the laptop we found a quite… traumatizing desktop picture.
Uh huh. Yes. No, you never took it off. And Billy-Joe here can’t seem to take his eyes off it. And – OH! Oh, ok. Wow. That’s your wife… ok. Geesh. I thought you were like 55? Really? Because she looks… slightly younger. I don’t know. It might just be the bikini she’s in…”
“dang it i cant sync my iphone and mbp again…MobileMe must be down again…”
“*sigh* ill inform Jobs…again…but at least i get to try out my new Hulger hand set!!”
“Thank you for calling the Bush Administration. Your call may be recorded and or wiretapped for for quality assurance purposes.”

Stoppen Sie, meine Kugeln zu klemmen!! – uh, yes, can I help you?
From: The Young 007 in “The Twins of Terror”:
“Yes, Anton, the money transfer is complete. Kill the girl.”
The Marsdenstein twins, mute since birth, communicate solely through the static pantomime of an Internet consumer bombarded with constant advertising and telemarketing from none other than his own doppleganger – a metaphor for today’s embarrassingly cyclical economy starved for imagination and progress – on tour this month at SFMOMA. Special admission to the installation may be waived with the donation of non-perishable food-stuff to the U.S. Military.
Cut/Paste Flaw Discovered in Time Machine
That’s right, Principal Jones. A Wii and an A in History or my brother posts these pictures on Facebook.
“wow! this phone looks really old! but its not, like, wow!”
That’s right, Mr. Jobs. If you don’t want any more “accidents” at your R&D facilities, you’ll send us 2 MacBook Airs and and 2 iPhones, NOW! . . . what’s that? Oh, Ivan says he wants a copy of “Dora the Explorer Animal Adventures” too.
MwaHaHaHa.
Do you know i dont have a caption yet.
Yes Prime Minister Putin, we received the package. Oleg is working on it right now. How, may I ask, is hacking into Zac Efron’s computer going to help Russia win the second cold war though? Uh huh. Yes, I will contact you right away if we come across any pictures of Vanessa Hudgens.
Applecare? My brother put his skateboard stickers on Dad’s computer. Where’s the undo key?
Dude, I know! The cool way to put ads on your MacBook is with laser etching like Leah did. I tried to tell him, but he wouldn’t listen.
steve? woz? we don’t really like all the colors, let’s go with all white.
“Hello, Luddite Universal Disruption Services. Yes, Windows 2010 is on the project list. We did a great job on Vista. No Sir we have not had much luck with the iPod or the iPhone. Have you cashed out your oil holdings yet? My brother Ned has an itchy finger.”
Mr. Job’s, As you suspected;
Gates is still in Power, Look’s as if, Ballmer is Just a hand Puppet.
It’s 3 a.m.
We don’t think style helps make you make phone calls from your mac. It just looks better.
The P is for perfection and you know that we are freaks.

Gilbert and George: The Formative Years
“This is the Kremlin. Stop bombing Georgia. We have seized their toy factory.”
Excuse me Scotty, but there seems to be a bug in the MacBook Transporter pattern buffer replicator….
Hard evidence that the Kremlin prefer mac to pc.
“Dmitri, i have some bad news, Georgia beat us in the womens beach volleyball!”
Training in progress. Apple’s CEO succession plan readies 2 Jobs look-alikes. After Jobs, one clone won’t do.
Steve Ballmer’s twins show off Microsoft’s “iPhone killer” product VistaFone.
I don’t think my father, the inventor of toaster strudel will be too pleased to hear this.
Mom always did like you best
“Skype me, bro.”
Steve and Woz make their first computer phone call……to Redmond. Billy doesn’t answer, no one does.
“Mommy, it’s Georgie.
Me and Jeb are playing “World Domination.”
Would you please ask Poppy to nuke North Korea? We’ll get 100,000 more points”
“I don’t always see eye to eye with my brother, but I haven’t let that stop me from talking to him.”
Early beta testing showed that the Architect of the Matrix’s first attempt at Agents Smith and Jones weren’t quite so successful as he had anticipated.
