I figured I'd start this thread to talk about how to properly hijack a thread. That way we can make sure useless chatter is in a place we can all ignore. Please make sure all posts deal with the topic of hijacking threads.

tabbed into the address box, entered "palindrome" and voilaHow did adding voila to the address box help you find what you were looking for?
"Voila" [actually "voilà"] is French. Don't you remember the ad "Things go better with French"? No? Neither do I.
You weren't serious in your question so I won't be serious either.

What does Sarah's address have to do with it?
Now perhaps my send button won't get hit before I finish typing.
Her speech was cleverly delivered backwards, so that if you play William Shatner backwards, it all becomes clear.
And with all the wit experienced on this board, I can confidently say that I Sarah's wit is Palin comparison.

boy, How did this thread get so out of hand? Who started this thread anyway? [6]

What does William Shatner have to do with the price of eggs in Outer Mongolia? I'll not touch the rest since I don't wish to ignite a political squabble other than to note that you're a punny fellow.

Matt, please have a little consideration -- I just ate.
I don't have the Collins dictionary in my library . Why is this not a free resource in my L4 upgrade?????

I think my local library should serve patrons a free Tom Collins with every book checked out.
You should never mix drinking with deriving.

That doesn't help. My memory banks are random access rather than serial.
Here is the definition of "palindrome" ... from palin again ...

Oh, ho that's why she keeps turning up again and again in the news.
What are all you people doing on the computer on the Sabbath? Take a break and spend time with your family, go for a walk, enjoy a guilt-free nap. Seriously, you are all Internet addicts. Well, Logos forum addicts anyway. And I'm not. Honest, I'm really not. This isn't me, it's someone who hijacked my account.
That was just bad George, just... horrible. Funny. But horrible.
Yes, "You shall not kindle a fire on the Sabbath." That includes turning on a light. I solve that problem by leaving my computer on. But then, Sunday isn't the Sabbath and never has been. Saturday is the Sabbath. Sunday is "The Lord's Day" in celebration of the resurrection. See Re 1.9, 10.
Bump.
Any news on this? Timetable?

poor Jill. Jack getting a greeting and Jill is broke.
Do you mean cereal, or perhaps surreal.

Perhaps surreal as well as serial. [:D]
Cereal memory would have crunch until you try to milk it, while surreal would either be in the army or polite.
You know, Philip, Jill might be a good source for ideas about your Thomas problem.
That whole pail of water up the hill thing sure did a number on Jack.
You have to admit she is pretty good at what she does.
Just a thought.

Excellent idea! Hey Thomas, are you married? If not I have a date for you.
"Hi Jack"
"Why is every body always picking on me"
Jack (feeling like Charlie Brown)
but I'm not particularly fond of dates, I prefer Pecans.
I prefer almonds....no...I take that back...nothing beats Pistachios.
nothing beats Pistachios.
I never did understand that movie.
I liked Jiminy Cricket but found the whole concept of a growing nose as an indicator of truthfulness to be a bit of a stretch.

Wow...and the right spelling. I had to really sound that one out to get your joke, I thought it was some kind of German nut. Did you have to look it up?

No. I know a little German.
Don't tell him I called him little. He is strong for his size and has a bit of a temper.
Your secret is safe. If he starts to act up just throw him a little peanut...or almond...or pistachio...
Eine Kliene Deutchman? Ok, I just demonstrated how much of my German I've forgotten due to gross neglect.
I consider all of my language learning σκὐβαλα, compared to the surpassing greatness of using a reverse interlinear.
I can't read Interlinears, I prefer to preach from the original pig latin version.

Hey guys,
Now you can feel a bit of how I am feeling when writing in English...most of the times I know the words and the correct way to spell, but I am always concerned about my idiom and how to use expressions english expressions.
You boys did a great effort but your idiom and spelling was not quit right in German and French. I do not know enough of Spanish and nothing about Arabic. But nevertheless..wouldn't it great to have an international dictionary on board of Logos. Something like 'babylon' .
OK, what about this:
"we always get our sin too" is literally translated dutch ..We always get what we want (onze zin).
During a visit of a dutch prime minister to mr. Winston Churchill in London (1940):Churchil: "Spring is in the air" (to jump is in dutch "springen", so jump is "spring")Dutch prime minister: "Why should I?"
And this one:
Prime minister Joop den Uyl (1973-1977): "We are a country of undertakers" (he meant: entrepreneurs)
Or how about this`:
Another dutch minister visited during the war (1940-1945) the private quarters of King George VI at Buckingham Palace:"May we thank your majesty for showing us your private parts?"
I have got a book full of these. My stomach is aching from all the fun and laughter.
Would you please tell me when I am making such an embarrassing mistake... You are allowed to laugh as loud as possible, as long as you tell me that I was wrong!
Oh, we'd be GLAD to.
Yes the Spanish is bad, but it looks like it was done with Google's translator.
A few legendary Spanish language mistakes.
An Argentine woman was being ordained for the first time. The English speaking pastor ordaining her got nervous and used the term "ordeñar" instead of the correct "ordenar" throughout the entire service, giving an entirely different meaning to the laying on of hands. (For those who don't know "ordenar" is to ordain, "ordeñar" is to milk.)
This allegedly happened in Chile: A misionary went to a mechanic and intended to say "Mi caro no puede prender. Pudiera cambiarme los platinos." ('My car won't start. Would you change the points for me.) But he made two mistakes and said "Mi caro no peude preñar. Pudiera cambiarme los platanos." (My car won't give birth. Would you change the bananas (plantains) for me.)
Another missionary arrived in a new country for a visit. Unknown to him the word 'papaya' was slang for buttocks there (they use a different term for the fruit papaya there). He wanted to say something complementary about the country when he began his sermon and noted that he had gone through the local market in the morning and noticed the papaya there. He went on to remark that in fact they were some of the biggest he had ever seen.
My friend just told me he once saw a series of 6 tapes, each 45 minutes titled "How to get your point across in 15 minutes or less." I LOVE IT!
I've read every post here and I still don't understand the correct way to hijack a thread.
Could someone make a video?
How many posts does that equate to?
Always just one more.
You do realise that you're fast approaching 2500 posts?
Extraordinary...

Joe,
Are you arguing that Damian is the alpha and omega of thread hijacking?
I've read every post here and I still don't understand the correct way to hijack a thread. Could someone make a video? The video is still being updated by YoutTube, so it is a bit blurry until they finish, but, just for you brother http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyK190qWbFc
That's hysterical. Especially when it goes into warp speed around 1:22.
