Spotted Dick, Jugged Hare: U.K. Dishes to Die Out, Survey Finds
July 24, 2006 (Bloomberg)
Spotted dick, bath chaps, jugged hare and bread and dripping are U.K. dishes at risk of extinction, according to a survey for a television channel. The survey for UKTV Food, a partnership between the British Broadcasting Corp. and Flextech Plc., identified those foods least recognized by people under 25 years old, and those they said they would be least likely to try. Bath chaps, cooled pigs cheeks in breadcrumbs, were most at risk, only recognized by 1 percent of under 25s. Next was jugged hare, boiled hare served with blood and port, and third was brawn, which is jellied pigs head. Bread and dripping came 10th. Among pudding desserts, the most threatened was calves' foot jelly, with spotted dick, 10th. The survey was based on interviews with 2,000 people.

I think you mean "how weak the other blogs are." Not "week." If we can't do some simple spell checking and grammatical checking in our Comments section people, well, then we might as well concede the battle to the worst blog ever now!
I've spotted dick.
I spied Richard Nixon once hiding behind a magazine rack in a 7-eleven whispering to customers not to buy the newspapers but wouldn't a nice coloring book be a pleasant treat with your morning coffee instead?
I was little so I didn't get his drift.
And I didn't buy a coloring book either because he looked creepy and I thought he may have done something to them.
