Technically this thread is _about_ hijacking. so cannot possibly be hijacked! Each new post is relevant to the OP. But if it can’t be hijacked then each new post is not a hijack, therefore it is not relevant to the OP, therefore it is a hijack. ARGHHH!!! \ ---

Did you hear about the latest American casualty in Iraq? An army unit was out on patrol, and found a dead, mangled Iraqi soldier in the ditch along the road. Then they found an America soldier in the ditch on the other side of the road alive, but with similar injuries as the dead Iraqi. The patrol’s sergeant asked the soldier, “What happened here?” Soldier: “I was out doing some recon when the Iraqi soldier surprised me. I was so shocked that all I could do was shout out, ‘Saddam Hussein and Baghdad Bob are lying, worthless sacks of sh\*t!’” SGT: “Then what happened?” Soldier: “The Iraqi looked at me and shouted back ‘Well, Bill Clinton and Tom Daschle are lying, worthless sacks of sh\*t!’” SGT: “Then what?” Soldier: “There we were, shaking hands in the middle of the road, when the truck hit us…” ---

I had tapioca with whipped cream for dessert. Hi, **Kn\*ckers!** Is anyone else interested in seeing _Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World_ or _Big Fish_? I’m reading a book about the Zodiac serial killer. Where did all the Trek threads go? ---

Look! I’m not telling you again! No, I won’t kiss you and here’s your twenty dollars back! I actually did this to an exGF of mine. at a real nice club. I wonder why we aren’t still dating? * * * I can’t find the cite site, but I heard a news story about a Cuban airliner hijacked to Florida. They just reported it (on the FM radio) and then went on to another item. I thought, “Hey! We need more commentary on this! That’s like Opposite Day or something! Hello(interrobang)” Oh well. At least _I’m_ on topic. ---
