Admins will be happy to know that my Chrome AdBlock Plus has apparently whitelisted whatever ad provider you guys have, since I often see ads on here despite having that plug-in.

It's Google Adsense - so since you are using AdBlock Plus provided as an add-in for Google's Chrome, it makes sense that they do not block.

I didn't realize they were AdSense ads...I just read a story about AdBlock Plus whitelisting AdSense as their ads are never intrusive ("intrusive ads) are technically the only type of ad that AdBlock Plus seeks to block). They were, however, paid handsomely for this whitelisting. Some debate has ensued about whether that is good practice or not. I say, why not? Non-intrusive ads being whitelisted and ABP making money doesn't seem like the worst thing. It helps websites like Soxtalk, too.

 

Also, I accidentally clicked the banner the other day...so enjoy my 5 cents.

Princess Kate in the hospital in labor. I think they send up black smoke every few hours if there is no baby yet, and then white smoke when there finally is a baby.

 

Are they gonna pass the royal baby around England like the Stanley Cup?

That reminds me of when the Hawks won the cup and were passing it around, my wife, who knows absolutely nothing about hockey, asked, "Why does the black guy (Emery) have to wait until last?"

He's a good stand up guy, his acting is mediocre.

I love his bit about hot pockets as well as his one about fruitcake.

 

His explanation about why we cut down Christmas trees and hang stockings is good too.
