Congratulations to Scott Calkins of Baton Rouge, La., who submitted the winning caption to this cartoon. Think you can write a funny caption? Be sure to check out our latest cartoon.

"Comical Processing" features drawings by award-winning cartoonist Jerry King. It’s our way of letting you take a break from all the serious stuff you deal with at work — by coming up with appropriate light-hearted captions.

I think my Differential Absorption LIDAR will be the preferred method for
EPA Volcano emissions sampling.
