The Pittsburgh kung pao caper

She:
The Steelers are close to taking the Super Bowl!

Me:
What's that? Thieves are going to steal a bowl? Well, I hope the cops catch them first! It must be a really special bowl--like, Tang Dynasty? So this is a museum heist?

She:
It's the SUPER Bowl.

Me:
You mean it's a really big bowl?

She:
Yes.

Me:
Oh, I get it. The Big Bowl restaurant. So the robbers

couldwe have a slightly smaller version of theimage pls? It's totally destoying my friends page.

It isn't an image I have that I can edit. That was just a link to the wikimedia image file. They're the ones who made it so big. I don't know how to make it smaller just by linking to it.

It's a Tang Dynasty bowl that figures in the elaborate wordplay I set up based on an offhand comment by my GF. Big Bowl is a chain of Chinese restaurants in the USA. The Super Bowl is actually some sort of American game-- fatball? foodball? something...

A link might have been better then.
