If I wanted to be cremated and have my ashes in a food canister, I’d let it be a can of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup.

As an adult, try sticking your hand down one of those cans of Pringles after you get them about half gone…Its almost impossible…. You need the arms and hands of an infant to finish it.. Or you can just dump them all out in a big pile and let them go stale. That sort of container is bestsuited for tennis balls.

I hope Raul has fitted a good set of brakes on his bike.

Alexi….Image code is different, since you’re not trying to make a link.
First you have to isolate the image on its own page…. in Firefox you right-click and select “View image”.
Copy the image URL.
Also Check the image properties before posting it
…. if it’s not over 375 pixels wide, the code is
<img src="Picture URL" />
If it’s any wider you must add a width attribute, ie
<img src="image URL" width="350" />
(Width is expressed in pixels.)
Example:<img src="http://uberhumor.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/E9tj6oE.jpg" width="350" />
will display
PLEASE do check and control width, or you end up posting giant, disruptive images that slow down some people’s systems… and get flagged.

Dennis Gage, who has a car program “My Classic Car” worked for Proctor and Gamble years ago..I seemto recall he said he was in on the Pringles can artwork and that’s why he wears a handlebar mustache to this day..
