Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Caption contest

Okay, everyone, I wanted an excuse to post a picture of my son with a black eye, so I'm going to do it as a caption contest...

In the comments, offer your suggestions for a caption to this photo.  The winner won't get anything, other than me saying, "You win."

“See what happens when you tell Daddy that Laird sucks?!!?”

Hey DShep...

This is OT, but I was wondering if you could make something comparable to this.
My roommate, a damned redsox fan has that for his Vista login screen… and I thought it’s kind of cool.
I’m using this FOTF one, and it looks pretty good, but I was just curious about what you could do. LOL, maybe make a fancy rally turtle desktop. I like how the top and bottom frame thing works, because it sort of centers the Vista User Picture thing on the login screen.

On another note Hank Blalock gave my 2 year old a black eye 2 weeks ago. Well a statue of him did, because the little guy had gotten it off his shelf and was attempting to balance it on his feet above his face instead of sleeping. Now I tell him if he doesn’t get in bed the Hammer is gonna get him!

Here's what happened

He was running around the house. He wanted me to chase him. I did for a while. Then I told him, no more chasing. He ran into the kitchen, stopped, turned and looked at me, did a loud shrieking laugh and turned and started running again…and ran smack into the island in the kitchen.

It made a loud noise, and I freaked out…I was afraid he’d cracked an orbital bone or something. But it was just a black eye, and 5 minutes later, he was tear-assing around the house once more.
