I don't think carp make very good pets. Try dog pets or cat pets instead.

A hijack would be greatly appreciated given the direction into which this thread was ebbing....
TX Bob... a timely direction changer. :clapping:

Edit:
Oh bother...that didn't last too long...!! Crap!

Jack is a friend of Roger. Because Roger is so jolly, he is always saying Hi to Jack; I guess we have all adopted this habit.

Jack is a good friend of mine. One day, back in the early '70s, I was getting on an airplane for a flight to Atlanta and there he was sitting in first class. I said, "Hi Jack!" Next thing I knew we were getting off the plane in Havana.

Bob...why did you forsake you Texan talk. If you had said, "Howdy Jack", all would have been fine! :grin:

Then of course, there was the over anxious person who hijacked the bus to the airport! That's a real oldie! :flee:

:laugh: That is true...if half the thread gets severed and moved due to change in topic, that is the ultimate hijacking compliment.
