Week 52: Pageant of the Transmundane

There is apparently a kangaroo named Bandit loose somewhere in the Syracuse, New York area. I smell a new reality show in the making with Smokey the bear. You just watch. It will happen.

This week's winning entry (and the final one of this Transmundane year comes to us from the wild and woolly world of Funktards.

The entry in question features the Cookie Monster in a completely new role. I think the thing that put this over the top was the placement of the cookie. That was one of those delightful little details I really appreciate. And for those of you who are keeping score, you know that Muppets + almost ANYTHING are always strong contenders for this award week after week.

And because this week's winning entry has to do with cookies, well, I felt an image of Homer with a large cookie would be the most appropriate. If you remember this particular episode, it did not end well for the cookie, a quilt or a pair of running shoes. As a sidenote, I remember way too many details from individual episodes of The Simpsons to be healthy.



Congrats Dalton. Here is the badge for this victory.



The rules of this little contest: Every week I will be selecting one blog post that I have seen from the vast reaches of the blogosphere to bestow with the Homer Simpson Transmundanity Award for being one of the freakiest(in a funny way) things I've seen or read during a 7 day period. It doesn't necessarily have to have been written during the week, I just had to have encountered it. That means that if you find something interesting and repost it like a movie or whatever, if I saw it at your blog first, you get the prize. Of course, creating your own content is also a very good way to win.

Now, if you see a post that you think is worthy of this illustrious prize, just drop me a line at campybeaver@gmail.com and we'll see if we can't get your suggestion up and award-ready while giving you some credit and a link to your own blog.
