The big anti-hijack thread.....
Talk about anything, but if this works than we don't have to keep looking around all the threads to see who is still on tonight, and every night, or even every day! Talk about the chiefs, talk about tomorrow, talk about football, politics or even how to do flooring and the applicable budget. What you're drinking, how hard it is to sleep, etc. Every thing is acceptable in this thread.....

So, I was in the local supermarket the other day and my spouse, who knows how much I love teh funny, picks up a can and goes, "Here, you'll like this." This is what she hands me:
I quickly put it back on the shelf, whipped out my camera phone, and took a quick snap.
Yes, that does say "Spotted Dick." It's a can of Heinz Spotted Dick Sponge Pudding. Those are just five words that don't belong in a sentence with that kind of proximity. Apparently people eat Dick and like it, when it's Spotted. Ahh, those strange Brits are just so queer.

Mets 3B David Wright says he'd switch positions if A-Rod came to the Mets in 2008. A-Rod flattered, especially since Jeter was never interested in any new positions :-)
