Never afraid to make the tough choices
After much deliberation and no assistance whatsoever for the Flog’s readership, we have finally attached a winning caption to the photo of those corpses in army uniforms smoking outside Whitehorse General Hospital.
Since none of the entries we received made reference to the lethal smoking in the image AND captured the essential “Yukon-ness” we look for in an unforgettable image/caption combination, we were faced with a choice between our two unwritten criteria. In the end, our hearts told us to choose the caption with the most “Yukon-ness.”
After the judging, we shared a couple of smokes and a few good laughs over the whole affair, thanks to the pack left over from Mark and Jesse’s research for last year’s “Being Smokers” segment.
