It's what's for dinner.

Ain't he that four-star prospect whose tearing up triple-A in the Cubs farm system? I saw him play with Iowa and he's a terrific-looking second baseman who can hit for power.
I didn't know he's a comedian too.
How is it that on a story like this I'm the only one making goatse jokes?
What happened to you, Slashdot?
You forgot, "What does a man bending over and spreading his butthole look like?"
I've been burned by a goatse link too many times to click on that.
Which by the way, turns out to be what you get when you combine every image on the internet together. Weird, huh?
They should put the data center in a pyramid. Then, the servers would last forever!
I don't know about you, but I would rather have the USA, despite all of its faults (and we have many), in control of these things instead of countries like Iran or North Korea.
Are those our only choices?
Until it became the world's shopping mall, governance of the Internet was rather simple.
At this point, I'd be content to see the Internet blown up completely and something else take its place. It's been too badly corrupted to ever deliver on any of the promise it had when it first became open to the general public.
The first day commerce was conducted on the Internet was the day it started to die. What we see now is a corpse reanimated by the needs of oppressive governments, telcos and huge, mostly evil corporations. It will never get better. There's no fixing it once the money-grubbers and rent-seekers and government upskirters took control.
Snails (escargo) suffer from the same problem.
Oh man, I can eat me a mess of snails. My grandma used to make them in garlic and butter, called, "Babaluci" (pronounced, "babalooch"). You'd get a big dish of these little things and a pin to pull out the mean. I would eat them until I got dizzy.
I'm actually drooling a little bit right now thinking about my grandma's babaluci Palermo.
Also, "babalooch" is a Sicilian nickname for a really slow-moving lazy guy.
Oh man, catfish is terrific if prepared well. We had a thing here in Chicago where several top chefs were invited to prepare Asian Carp (because Lake Michigan and the rivers around here are full of 'em). Completely by accident, my wife and I happened upon this little competition/PR event, and got to taste some. Whew. The biggest challenge for the chefs was to cover their nasty smell, which doesn't go away when cooked.
I've eaten all sorts of "garbage" fish, including smelt, caught fresh from Lake Michigan and fried on the spot in beer batter. Taste great.
Man, you don't ever want to be in a position where you have to eat an Asian Carp.
Plus, I understand that they have been jumping out of the water and attacking boaters. And they're ugly. These are some effed-up fish.
Big difference. I understand that snakehead is palatable if prepared well. Not so the Asian Carp, which can at best be camouflaged and even then has a bitter, cloying flavor.
We've got them here in Chicago. I've tasted them. Awful.
The Asian Carp tastes like shit. It's a greasy, nasty-tasting meat with a mushy texture. Maybe if you put enough breading and spices and deep fry it long enough, you might be able to turn it into a mystery meat and pass it off to someone starving.
It sounds like a great idea, but no. Maybe it could be ground up and fed to cats or used as fertilizer. It would be preferable to then bread and deep fry the cat and eat that then to eat an Asian Carp.
And before you tell me that they eat Asian Carp in some god-forsaken hell-hole on the other side in the world, I would also remind you that the same thing could be said about the cat.
. It's the neckbeards with the Cheetos-stained fingers that are unsucessful at breeding.
Yeah, well someday, there are going to be millions of mutant Kleenex rising up to be our overlords.
(I don't know, something about all the DNA put there by geeks, you know? So go make up your own goddamn jokes.)
Some people are too stupid to breathe. Or breed.
