WIN: one of two DVD copies of the Sci-Fi Channel miniseries The Triangle

THE RULES: If you have not won a prize in one of my caption contests or gimme giveaways in 2006*, and you have a United States mailing address, you're eligible to win. If one or both of those rules exclude you but you're moved by the muse of comedy, feel free to send me a caption anyway -- you might get an honorable mention... but let me know you're entering only for fun. (*Micropatrons who've snagged some exclusive micropatron goodies are eligible to win one of these prizes.)

Oh, two more simple rules: 1) Be clever, be original, make me giggle. 2) One entry per person.

To celebrate the DVD release of the Sci-Fi Channel miniseries The Triangle, I've got two DVD sets to give away, courtesy of The Sci-Fi Channel. Here's the scoop on the movie from Sci-Fi:

Featuring an all–star cast including Eric Stoltz, Catherine Bell, Lou Diamond Phillips, Bruce Davison and Sam Neill, THE TRIANGLE offers a look into the dangerous truths behind one of the greatest legends of our time. Billionaire Eric Benirall (Sam Neill) is losing his cargo ships and their crews at a frightening pace – and he wants answers. His handpicked team of subject-specific experts includes skeptical tabloid journalist Howard Thomas, ocean resource engineer Emily Patterson, scientist/adventurer Bruce Geller and psychic Stan Lathem. Recruited with the promise of unlimited funding for their research and the chance for once-in-a-lifetime riches, the team sets out to solve this most daunting of puzzles. Deepening the mystery are circumstances surrounding Meeno Paloma, a boat pilot who experienced the Triangle’s deadly forces on a Greenpeace expedition – and whose life has never been the same since. After a jetliner disappears over the Triangle, bizarre, unexplainable occurrences begin to affect each member of Benirall’s team. When the government takes an alarming interest in their work, the four unlikely friends are drawn into something far more dangerous.

Visit the official site. Check out my take on The Triangle over at Geek Philosophy here and here. If you don’t want to wait to win, buy the 2-disc DVD set at Amazon.

To enter to win a DVD set, send a funny caption for this still from the miniseries:

Belinda's winning caption: "Are you sure that you really want to know what goes on here at the Spam processing plant?"

Joseph's winning caption: "I'm not going to pay a lot for this muffler."
