Good riddance. I hate tuna. Smells awful and comes in the same size cans as cat food.

Canned tuna was much better when it contained some dolphin. :=) Dolphin-free tuna, yucccch!

I was having dinner one night with my brother and his wife, and they had put the salad bowl in the sink, even though it still had salad in it. No room around the counters I guess.

I wanted some more, so I grabbed the bowl, scraped the salad into my plate and put the fork in my mouth that had been in the bowl.

I thought..."Tuna? I didn't know they put tuna in this..." and turned around with a quizzical look, which quickly change to horror as I saw the cat on the floor chowing down on some canned cat food...ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
GGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nancy Pelosi is doing her share to save the tuna by jacking up the minimum wage.

Aw com'on! I thought we had a Magnusson bill or somethog protecting them, and the Dims quit eatinf Tuna sandwiches... the again maybe that's why Pelosi wants to exempt Samoa from the new minimum wage.

I love tuna steak.

Damn, if you like beer too, we'd have a lot to talk about.

Cat food tastes better; 90% of senior citizens can't be wrong.

You think that's bad? A friend of mine has a huge Labrador Retriever. It eats a lot, and we went to the store to buy a large bag of dog food. We were in line to check out and a woman behind him asked if he had a dog.

The "what a moron!" look on my buddy's face was priceless, and I knew what it meant: he was going to toy with her. He told her that no, he was starting The Purina Diet again although he probably shouldn't -- he said he had ended up in the hospital last time, but that he'd lost 50 pounds before he awakened in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of his orifices and IVs in both arms.


He told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. He said that the food is nutritionally complete so he was going to try it again.

I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with his story, particularly a big tall guy who was behind the woman.

Horrified, she asked why he ended up in the hospital -- had the Purina made him sick? He told her no; he'd been sitting in the middle of the street licking his balls and a car hit him.

The woman turned fire-engine red, and I helped the tall guy up off the floor.

But that only happens around election time when the Democrats are out of power.

That's not tuna, that's albacore, tuna is a fillet or steak for the grill:)
