If metal try GENTLY heating the thread, the metal will shrink a tiny bit and then it should shift. If that fails give it to a chick. They always have that knack of getting lids of jam jars! | |

| jesus christ.. did you cross-thread it when you screwed it back on? I mean if you got it on there you should be able to get it off. maybe take your skirt off.  |
