damn, where is PETA at when you need them

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

My mother, who's Turkish, once (and thank God, only once!) made some sort of broth/soup using a sheep's head .. OMG.. we rebelled :protest: and she never tried that again.. Where did she even go to get a sheep's head??? I think it scared me for the rest of my teenage years.. :wacko:

My own video of live shrimp in something spicy. only 10 or so seconds taken in Thailand a couple years ago.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

Senate Floor Speech on Public Debt

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

damn, where is PETA at when you need them

Two things I can not eat........liver and creamed peas, I was abused as a child with both.

I will try anythng once, most I can eat again, some never again.

One of the worst things I have eaten, taste wise was a Baloot (sp) in the Phillipines.

Here in the US as a kid I went on a mission to hunt, kill and eat anythiong that walked, crawed, slitherd, or flew.

I have eaten almost every bird you can find in Nebraska and Oregon, I can not think of any wild animal I have not eaten. Beaver, Nutria, possom, skunk. porqupine, fox, coyote, bobcat, couger, deer, elk ect. All manner of snakes and bugs. Also pretty much any domestic animal or bird. One of the worst ### whippings I ever recieved was when my folks and sister went away for the day and I cooked and ate her parakeet. I trid to lie my way out of it to no avail. NOW.........................just so you don't get the wrong idea. All of this was 40 years ago. For the last 40 years I have pretty much only eaten what you can buy, catch or hunt legaly.
