Nice. Thanks.

Re: Uncle Bud
Blood Meridian passage for today:
"He swung the stopper up from where it hung by a thong and drove it home with the heel of his hand. He pitched the canteen to the man behind him and looked down at the travelers. Why you no hide? he said.
From you?
From I.
We were thirsty.
Very thirsty. Eh?
They didnt answer. He was tapping the flat of the sword lightly against the horn of his saddle and he seemed to be forming words in his mind. He leaned slightly to them. When the lambs is lost in the mountain, he said. They is cry. Sometime come the mother. Sometime the wolf."

Re: Uncle Bud
Linwood just came in, extolling the virtues of chitlins. The slightly autistic Sam replied "That's like putting doo-doo in your mouth." He wanted no part of it...

Re: Uncle Bud
I never had Chitlins. Not sure I've ever had the chance
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Re: Uncle Bud
If you're ever in a house when chitlin's are being prepared, it smells like a sewer.
It was all I could do to keep my lunch down, much less put a chitlin' dinner in.

Re: Uncle Bud
I am addicted to Tikka Masala with Nan bread.
There is a place here in Cinci that makes the best I've tasted, and surprisingly, the frozen mix you buy from the local Indian store isn't bad either.
There is an Indian place about to open around the corner from me. I'm going to enjoy that
I shouldn't be surprised given we opened a cricket court at the local park last year.

Re: Uncle Bud
eCat + sudden love for Indian food + his sensitive digestive system = bad news at some point
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

I'm guessing eCat's next project is going to be the construction of a tandoori oven...

Re: Uncle Bud
heh...no
actually I don't have a sensitive stomach anymore. I'm on 40mg a day of some stuff that is slowly killing my kidneys but never gives me indigestion.
also I my bm's have been amazingly consistent, and by that I mean comparable to the same level of enjoyment a 50 year old man gets from "again, you just had it 3 days ago, ok, lets get it over with, I'm going out with my friends in an hour" sex

Never eat at an Indian restaurant that's next door to an animal shelter.
