Oh, I'm torn, at least I have narrowed it down to two.
 
This was a tough one. I went with literal interpretation and voted for Integral. :biggrin:

I can already see it's going to be a close competition.
 
I'm between turbo and moonbear, turbo has a clever twist, as we are heading into fall, it made me laugh, with a little fermentation, Humpty could have a "really" great fall.

Moonbear's interpretation is a double, first the non-physical wall of Wall Street and the market's recent fall. Very clever.
 
Moonbear wins my vote: very clever indeed :approve:
 
I liked Moonbear's metaphor best.
 
Mine was for Moonbear too.
 
You have less than 2 days left to cast a vote in this contest.

With a few more hours to go, looks like Moonbear is going to win this one unless Integral can catch her during the final hours! Will this come to a fingertip touch separated only by 0.01 second?

I had to go with Moonbear for the reasons I cited above. Very clever. turbo was close for his clever twist also.

Moonbear's metaphor is just too scary for me. I found Borek's photo clever and playful, but turbo's artistry won me over.
 
  • #13
Woohoooooo goooo Moonbear!

Are we there yet?

Yay Moonbear! You won one! :biggrin:
