a reply to: charles1952

Thanks for explaining it to me! I've brushed up on the particulars.

That's what I get for being overzealous

Bassago: The horrors of war always make fantastic comics yet that particular piece reminded me of



That's from a public domain comic strip called Between Shots. Drawn by an actual Captain with the 77th Division in France (during WWI) named PL Crosby. Good to see someone got some humor out of war

ketsuko: nutria makes me think of capybaras, the largest rodents in the world. My paternal grandpa who was raised in Suriname wanted one for a pet when he was a child. Consider the man in Bassago's comic, he'll probably go back to ruins and roast up some capybara!

At Ripley's NYC they sell chocolate with insects inside. Being a veg, I'd never try it but a few years ago I would've eaten them baked, fried or boiled. Insects are the reason I watch my food like a hawk when I cook. Living in the city with waterbugs and the rest of the crawlies my eggplant parm will turn into roach parm.

guohua: How's it going? I'm glad I read the rules haha! Nothing for me I'm in it for the conversation tonight

Hope I did alright here

a reply to: Bassago
My dear Friend,,,,, who brought up the eating of Rats and incest's?
Was it you or Charles?

Incest's are a good source of Protein, and can be cooked, many ways or just eat'en raw.

I prefer mine stir fried with garlic unless it's Black Ants the their best just dry roasted.
I don't car for rats or Dog, I do like monkey and rabbit and snake, all best roast over a grill or deep fried.
Never had bat, but my husband has, he said it taste like Sh*t, but eatable.

Of-Course every one knows I like Turtle, fish and all forms of sea food is GREAT for you to include Dry Sea Weed.

But still, unless I was in Survival mode, I don't think I could eat a Rat or Dog or Cat.
My husband would have to prepare and cook and not tell me.

a reply to: Yeahkeepwatchingme

Not a problem, guy. It's all good.

(You've seen Mrs. G.'s picture just below the bra burners? DO NOT get her mad at you. If she does she'll give you the dreaded Black Face. Don't turn down everything or she'll get grouchy. Ask her about the tea for tonight, or any of the soft drinks.)

I've had people suggest vegetarianism to me, but I'm an old guy and habits are tough to break. I suppose that's why eating insects doesn't excite me either, force of habit. But if you live in the BIG CITY, you've probably got a lot of specialty food stores and restaurants. My town is struggling to get to 25,000 (and I don't think it'll make it), but we've got a Halal market. But again, force of habit.

(You should have seen Mrs. G. explode when I suggested that instead of having her amazing turtle soup, I'd just run out and get half a dozen double cheeseburgers. It was mean of me, but I couldn't resist.

a reply to: Yeahkeepwatchingme

You're doing GREAT!
So your a Vegan, our daughter is a Vegan.
Hard life, but she and I are Chinese so actually about 85% of my diet on a daily is all Vegetables with eggs, that have to be cage free organic.
Which just drives my husband Crazy!!
He say's, The GOD DAMN Chicken Don't Know,,,,, Who Cares!!!
I care I say in my most sweetest voice,,,,,, he get's the eggs I want!

He's a big meat eater, so we eat different meals. I don't mind.
You're doing good, just ignore old grumpy. You don't have to do any heavy reading.
Enjoy yourself.

a reply to: charles1952

Thanks for that advice too

I ate meat for 24 years, last year I just quit, for me it's been great. Big city guy here, and I used to live in a town with about 300 people. We had a tiny market, post office, a garage and a shack with the internet equipment (it never worked). Halal trucks are very common here and I actually live a block away from a falafel place that gets the Halal crowd at night (when the trucks in the area are shut). Super crowded.

Only insect I ever ate was a spider in elementary school. I succeeded in freaking my classmates out but didn't enjoy the delicate aftertaste that commonly accompanies the typical house spider.

guohua: What's the tea for tonight if you don't mind me asking? I'm a huge tea fan.

Veganism is a little out of reach for me haha. I can't live without my cheese but who knows what the future holds? I was carnivorous for so long. Guilty of watching too many Flintstones episodes

a reply to: charles1952
Yeah and what good did those Cheese Burgers do for your Blood Pressure HUH, you want to tell me That?
Try tell take care of some people and look how you get Abused!!!!
you're lucky I don't tie you to your cot when your sleeping and force feed you my Special Herbal Medicine's I Have To Boil in A Cauldron!
Haaaahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaaa

a reply to: guohua

Hey there! It's still early here, 11:15pm..trying to stay awake for the lunar eclipse. Don't think I'm going to make it until 3-4am, lol.



Hope everything's good with you

Hi Yeahkeepwatchingme!!

a reply to: guohua

Old grumpy? OLD GRUMPY??!?? I'll have you know that there are still some people, just in my state, that are older than me. And grumpy? Whose grumpy? I'll blister your hide if i hear more talk like that.

That's the trouble with these young whippersnappers, no respect. I still don't know why they took Lawerence Welk off the air, it must be another of those commie pinko plots.


Now, be fair, Mrs. G. I only told him to read the OP and three consecutive pages of posts so he could get the flavor of the place. That's not too much to ask, considering the benefits he gets. Why he even gets to talk with the amazing Mrs. G! (See what I'm doing there, I'm trying to get out of trouble.)

OH, Mrs. G. Yeahkeepwatchingme is asking about the tea for tonight. What do you have for our new friend?

a reply to: Jennyfrenzy

Hey Jennyfrenzy, nice to meet you! *Virtual handshake*

I'm thinking of breaking my vegetarian convictions for a nice mashed spider burger. Maybe with some sliced Colby Jack on top, pickles, a tomato, ketchup and mustard. All on a toasted bun.

Just kidding

You have a good view of the moon? It's pouring over here, otherwise I'd try to get some pics on my phone for the Blood Moon thread.

a reply to: guohua

Hey, being tied to the cot might not be so bad (snicker, snicker), but I'm not sure about the cauldron remedy. It sounds like a diabolical modification of the famous water torture. I promise! I'll behave.

a reply to: Yeahkeepwatchingme

The tea we have boiling tonight is actually Artichoke Tea for nutrition. the ingredients are, Artichoke stem 40%, Artichoke root 40% and Artichoke flower 20%. Very good for weight loss and fevers.
The next Tea is called Lemon Ginger, the ingredients are Ginger root, Lemon grass, Safflower, Hibiscuc, a little citric acid and some Soy.
The last Tea for tonight is actually a powder tea from China you add to boiling water it is called Aloe Pollen and that is basically the ingredients with some other Minerals.

a reply to: charles1952
OK, that's better, now drink your tea I actuall made the Lemon Ginger Tea for you.
I also recommend you use a little Honey as a Sweetener or Brown Sugar, but just a little.

a reply to: Jennyfrenzy

Mmmmm, Jennyfrenzy, I hate to look stupid, but what are the young ladies doing in the picture? The can seems to indicate that they're throwing freedoms away there. It appears that they're throwing away a cellphone, a wallet and a water hose. (Yes, I know they didn't have cell phones then, but that's what it looks like.)

Oh, and I just noticed the woman in the left rear who doesn't quite have the idea of "getting dressed" down pat yet.

a reply to: guohua

I remember the Lemon Ginger, that was actually quite good, thanks. Yeahkeepwatchingme, you should try that stuff. She starts by taking a whole turtle and a chicken without it's feet .... wait a minute, that's the turtle soup recipe, sorry.

When she starts talking about recipes, she's playing it perfectly straight. You can try any of those at home.

a reply to: Jennyfrenzy
I like that picture,,,you want to stay up,,,, Drink the Aloe Pollen Tea with a Honey mixture to sweeten.
The Artichoke Tea will relax you.
Now the Lemon Ginger Tea will keep you up,,,,, BUT,,,,,, It'll Really Make You Go Pee To,,,,,,, Well The Female sex it make go Pee,,, Not The Male for some reason!
