Man, it was hard picking the winning entry from those available, but, in the end, I had to go with the first one that made me laugh out loud:
“Oswald was a pussy!”
It was written by Tim B., and, as for the super secret prize – so secret that I just decided what it is right now – he gets a limerick of praise:
Hooray for the triumphant Tim B.
He displayed his acumen for all us to see.
He saw the sniper kitty,
and made a caption so witty,
That it filled all our hearts with glee.
Putting on my fussy teacher hat, I feel obliged to mention that this limerick suffers from incorrect meter in several spots. See:

and scroll down to Meter of Limericks.
Do it again, and I’ll have to give your knuckles a good ruler-whackin’
But good choice on the winner.
Bah…the contest was rigged…I want a recount!
I can’t wait to see the further adventures of this brave kitten. I can imagine him now with his food dish: “Please sir, can I have some more?” What a blessed creature, this cat child. Brings a lump to the throat, don’t it?
Yay me!!
“The Usual Suspects” rules…again!
The contest was rigged from the start.
Frank J isn’t terribly smart.
We were ALL very witty
About sniper kitty,
Tim B.’s quote was not from the heart.
From ‘The Usual Suspects’ it came.
Tim B. has admitted the same.
I could have plagerized,
Or not even have tried,
But originality’s the name of MY game.
So at this point, I’ll stop getting bent.
I really just needed to vent.
I’m not at all mad.
I’m really just sad.
If I don’t win, I always lament!
Mike the Marine needs to get a blog and join the Alliance. We can’t ever have enough limerick authors who have rhythm.

Hey, my feline prefers submachine guns.
That contest was THE BEST — IMAO is a cornucopia of wit, and that’s just the readers.
