Howdy, blog-o-philes. Carter Winslow reporting. I don't have a digital camera yet (I know, so behind the times), so I just got my pictures back from the capnwacky.com Fifth Anniversary gala we had last month. Thought I'd share a few of the photos with all of you.

Look, it's Nicole Kidman! I had just gotten my courage up to introduce myself to her when she suddenly realized that the silver dress she had wrapped all over her body was really our alien advice columnist/movie reviewer, Zonar the Superion. She didn't take it well, but Zonar's buddy Merlin Olsen thought it was hilarious. That's my finger in the foreground. So embarrassing.

Amalgamated Humor co-president Brodie H. Brockie with his date, a woman he paid to have extensive plastic surgery to make her look like starlet Natalie Portman and date him. He almost got away with it, but the real Miss Portman (a former flame of Cap'n Wacky himself) was also in attendance. The ensuing catfight was the highlight of the evening for me.

That was certainly more entertaining than the real entertainment hired for the evening: Fire archery tricks performed by local Boy Scout and Cub Scout troops. I think I'm not supposed to write very much about this.

And finally, here's Amalgamated Humor Co-President RJ White confronting guest William Shatner about taking the entire shrimp plate away from the buffet table. All in all, a fitting tribute to the first five years of capnwacky.com

Whatever, I've only been here a couple months. I was just there to gawk and the celebrities and for the free meal. I think Shirley McClaine was kind of giving me the eye.
