    With a fresh bottle of ketchup ... right.

    My daughter inspects restaurants for the public health department here in Denver. Talking to her has essentially ruined the dining out experience for me.
    Rule # 1 -- It's a good idea to avoid Asian restaurants. There are exceptions, of course.
    Rule # 2 -- No matter where I'm eating I check the online inspection reports ahead of time.

    I like my steak done medium. No ketchup or steak sauce. I don't eat raw fish. I'll eat snails, eel, tripe and try just about anything. But not raw. I don't eat raw clams or raw oysters anymore either.

    We are looking for Sikies. They aint good for much but they are broody. I have been putting up more fencing. We use a 2 inch by 4 inch fencing. It is more expensive but it keeps the goats in. Have you considered shelter for the goats? A three sided shelter works fine. I also split my pasture and rotate the stock.

    " baby kitten or puppy " is redundant.
    You obviously aren't getting enough Omega 3 fatty acids.
    I eat something every day with Omega 3.Usually really nice
    smoked salmon as appetizer or Creamed Herring.
    You are only as sharp as what kind of brain food you consume.
    Asians { Orientals } score highest on college entrance exams and
    have the most degrees per capita.Find me an Asian who won't
    eat fish and I'll show you an Asian in Prison.Where you would also
    be hard pressed.

    Snails/ babalooch are hard to find. You use to be able to get them at the Italian store. They sold them in big whicker baskets. You clean the outside really well and then leave them in a pot with water and bread crumbs. Cover the pot so they don't escape. Next day they get washed off and put in a pot of gravy to cook. They were small white shell snails. The eel is easier to find. Fish market or even the grocery store around here. They especially have it around Christmas. You cut the head and tail off and gut it. Then cut it in pieces about 3 or 4 inches. Marinate it over night in red wine vinegar, garlic salt pepper and a little olive oil. Bake it till it looks done. Very tasty stuff.

    Do you know what a quahog is? It's one shellfish you don't wanna eat cooked. It gets rubbery. When I was a kid growing up in Rhode Island I used to enjoy walking the shoreline in quahog territory with a paring knife in hand. See a quahog, pick it up, cut it open and yummy!

    I don't eat any seafood now in Oregon because of Fukushima. The radiation plume reached us in 2015. Plenty of people don't care.

    I hope I'm wrong but they { practically everyone } Lied Big Time
    about Fukushima.Plus it's still not taken care of.The only good thing is
    that people of Japan aren't dying in droves.Or even small populations.
    Because they can't hide a thing like that.
    The only site that aggressively reported hard facts about the Fukushima
    disaster was - Infowars -. Which explains why they treated like left
    over senile snails at Alex Jones.Because this MSM is a pack of stinkin'
    liars.Every day we learn a new Lie perpetrated by this Mainstream media.
    Not from them ... Thank Nicholas.

    Yeah Ive eaten plenty and Ive gone clam digging many times. Had a lot of fun doing it. We would put a bushel basket in a tire tube. Float it and fill it. Come home, eat them raw and cook some up. Ive eaten raw clams many times. I really liked them with lemon and a little Tabasco. Now Ill put them on the grill and when they open up Ill put some lemon and pepper on them. Ill cook them with onions, garlic and parsley and put them over linguini. I like muscles better. That Ill make with a little tomato, garlic and onion over linguini.

    Geoduck clams (with the long necks) are my favorite sashimi.

    Great with lemon juice.

    Land Rover that goes off to warn you it's Supper time.Or Lunch time.

    Used to gather buckets of them in the shallows behind misquamicut beach near Westerly when I was a kid. The locals were able to saute them fast with butter garlic and lemon juice. They were very good - perhaps because they were not overcooked.
    I can't remember if they used them chowder, but I suspect they found a way.

    The Japanese will probably find a way to benefit from a faster rate of mutation. They have had a lot of experience with it.

    Pretty much any seafood tastes good in butter and garlic and lemon juice.

    "Thus Lenin said, "Practice is higher than (theoretical) knowledge, for it has not only the dignity of universality, but also of immediate actuality.''[1] The Marxist philosophy of dialectical materialism has two outstanding characteristics. One is its class nature: it openly avows that dialectical materialism is in the service of the proletariat. The other is its practicality: it emphasizes the dependence of theory on practice, emphasizes that theory is based on practice and in turn serves practice. The truth of any knowledge or theory is determined not by subjective feelings, but by objective results in social practice. Only social practice can be the criterion of truth. The standpoint of practice is the primary and basic standpoint in the dialectical materialist theory of knowledge.[2]" Mao Tse Dung, "On the Relation Between Knowledge and Practice, Between Knowing and Doing," July 1937.

    In theory, the workers paradise. In practice, mass starvation.
