Roger Ebert Finally Wins New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest

Two years ago, Roger Ebert wrote this on his Chicago Sun Times blog:

I have entered the New Yorker’s cartoon caption contest almost weekly virtually since it began and have never even been a finalist. Mark Twain advised: “Write without pay until somebody offers to pay you. If nobody offers within three years, sawing wood is what you were intended for.” I have done more writing for free for the New Yorker in the last five years than for anybody in the previous 40 years.
