    They're dead? Good, kill them all....  

    PS- as a former Blood Bank Technologist, I got to see about every human trauma you can imagine- missing limbs and all that stuff. So I'm pretty gross out proof....  The topper was a guy who rolled his Harley doing around 70, should have been DRT (dead right there). One of the residents took one look at the mess and barfed. The X-Ray report was three pages single spaced. Needless to say he didn't survive.

    There isn't a chance in hell I'm eating that.

    Hell, I might not sleep tonight because of it. 

    Some real prehistoric s.hit there but they are delicious!  I like 1. crab 2. monkfish 3. others including lobster. 

    C'mon order the monkfish,  a beautiful white meat fish.  Mmmmmmmm. 

    ..........hmmmm,  kind of looks like ghoolie.  😆

    Cal and I can tell you that you have no idea what you are missing from the wild. Cutthroat trout pan-fried in butter from the just broken ice in the Rawah Wilderness in northern Colorado, fresh live crawfish picked at midnight from the Horsetooth Reservoir tributary near Ft. Collins grilled over an open fire with the tails served with dipping melted butter and gigged flounder fillets wrapped in foil with spiced lemon-butter and placed in campfire coals at midnight on the backside of Matagorda Island on the Texas coast. Atmosphere is everything. Right cal? ?

    Now just give us a nice ice-chilled white wine to go with those Larry. Those trips would be a mind changer. A Sauternes maybe?   ??

    Actually, I do know what I'm missing Bill- and I don't miss it.  I've nibbled on the stuff and for whatever reason, I don't like it. If I put a shrimp in my mouth, 5 minutes later, I'm still chewing on it. I take that as a sign my body is trying to tell me something. You'd think growing up on the shores of Lake Erie with fresh caught yellow perch or walleye I wouldn't have a problem eating it. I almost thought I could eat grilled swordfish, tried it a couple times- but I was wrong. On my trips to Alaska to my pal's house where he had alderwood smoked salmon, or our fishing adventure to Upper Paradise Lake with the very mild arctic grayling- still no go. Last trip there- I hiked up to the Harding Icefield while the guys went halibut fishing. Two of the guys I went with are gourmet chefs (one of them has his own catering business) They argued for an hour afterwards about the best way to prepare the fresh catch. Yup- didn't care for halibut either. 

    BTW, those wines are great- just don't ruin them with some nasty seafood.  Don't have time now (it's a long story) about our wine\ frog legs paring. and- I don't care for those either. If you haven't figured it out yet- I have an extremely limited diet as far as wine aficionados goes...  🙂

    Best overnight stay I ever had was Chateau d'Arche in Sauternes on the way from Barcelona to Paris. The owner just opened his fridge and told us to drink anything we wanted, but no more than 3 bottles. He had some really great years in there, not just the average stuff. Wonderful! reat place to stay overlooking the red tile roofs of Sauternes.

    Only thing that needs added to it for extra flavor boost is this. And a shot or two for the chef with a little Coke and a slice of lime. Doesn't get any better'n that.??

    Don Papa Rum

    From the Phillipines.

    Now that one looks very interesting. Good sipping rum?

    EDIT: To each his own. Some love it and some despise it.

  • FIlipino rum tastes different.  I've had it and it is pretty good.  What rum do you recommend?  How much is it?  And where can I buy it.  The Coast Guard Exchange here has a huge liquor section and sells all kinds of whiskey/Rum/Vodka, wine etc.  No tax either.

    Diplomatico Reserva Exclusiva -  Venezuelan -- hoorta will back me up on that one. Greatest sipping rum ever. About $35 or so. May be less at Coast Guard Exchange.

    Won a double gold best in class and best overall rum 2 or 3 years ago in the S.F. International Spirits contest.

    Then what was the deal on Goslings?  Something to get smashed on? May as well drink Meyers or Bacardi.

    Think of it this way Larry, Goslings is to Diplomatico like cooking sherry is to Bordeaux. I was using it as a flavor additive to food above and as a decent rum for Cuba Libre (rum and coke with lime) while cooking. It's not a sipper for sure.

    Actually, because the game started so late, not til 8:20 pm, I had eaten dinner much earlier

    Potato chips are my one true weakness, I can polish off a half a bag like nothing......we started getting boxes of the assortments of 1 oz. bags of chips, doritos, etc. for snacks only about 160 calories each and relatively cheap.

    I have a bad habit of eating lunch and a late dinner especially  since my wife retired. And GAMEDAY eating is whenever!

    I had a grossly overpriced hamburger (supposedly kobe beef) and onion straws at the Dayton Racquet Club. I don't pass up the opportunity though. One of our Wine group has a membership, and it's great ambiance to get together with the guys and watch on the widescreen. On the top (29th) floor of the biggest building in town, with a commanding view in all directions. And no hassles about bringing in your own wines, of which there were plenty of very good ones. 🙂
