Saturday Overnight Open Thread (5/12/18 )
Saturday Night Joke A Marine squad was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an Iraqi terrorist who was badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of the road was an American Marine in a similar but less serious state. The Marine was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both men, the Squad Leader asked the injured Marine what had happened. The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent. We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road. I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum bag who got what he deserved.” He yelled back, "Barack Obama is a lying, good-for-nothing, left wing Commie who isn't even an American. So I said, "Osama Bin Laden dresses and acts like a frigid, mean-spirited lesbian! He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well, so does Nancy Pelosi!” And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when a truck hit us.

Cochrans and leprechauns If Ireland didn't have enough problems.
Ireland has a goat problem. A growing gang of wild goats is having its way with the towns of Ennis and Clare's gardens, parking lots and roads. Greenery is being devoured. Cars are being forced to slow or stop, with all too much frequency, for fear that drivers could end up having to pick goat meat out of their vehicle's grills with a pointy stick. According to Clare's Mayor, Tom McNamara, “the disturbance that these goats are causing in the locality is totally unacceptable." The Mayor continued by pleading that the goats “are getting up on top of cars and going around businesses at night time." The goats, which have been tagging local homes and historical landmarks as they expand their territory, have drawn the attention of the local law enforcement's gang task force. OK, that last sentence was bullshit, but it'd be awesome if it were true.
No fleas. No walks. No "landmines". Boston Dynamics' SpotMini robot dog goes on sale in 2019.
SpotMini, Boston Dynamics' agile four-legged robot, will go on sale next year for companies that want a mechanical quadruped to get to places a wheeled device can't reach. Boston Dynamics has 10 SpotMini prototypes now and will work with manufacturing partners to build 100 this year, company co-founder and President Marc Raibert said at a TechCrunch robotics conference Friday. "That's a prelude to getting into a higher rate of production" in anticipation of sales next year, he said.
Virtue signaling takes on many shapes and forms.
From co-founder Gale Epstein’s very first designs using repurposed handkerchiefs, sustainability has been a core value for Hanky Panky’s 4+ decades in business. Unlike nearly every other category of clothing made, worn underwear cannot be accepted for reuse. Lingerie fabrics can last for decades before biodegrading. With all this in mind, we are proud to announce Lingeriecycle™, our new sustainability initiative to help divert worn out and no longer wearable items from landfills. Even though there are processing costs, it is an expense that Hanky Panky is covering for our customers in order to take responsibility for our products. It is the right thing to do for the planet. We hope that in the future, all brands and retailers will take responsibility for the entire lifecycle of the items they sell, and we are proud to lead the way for the lingerie industry to transition into a sustainable future.

Happy Birthday Tony Hawk.
Do you know or have you heard of Mario Salcedo? Supposedly he is the happiest man in the world.
For nearly two decades, Mario had been living out of his suitcase, traveling extensively for his corporate job as the director of international finance at a multinational corporation. He spent more time in and out of hotel rooms scattered across Latin America than he did at his home in Miami. After working nonstop for nearly 21 years, Mario — burned out — decided it was time to pursue a lifelong goal: to travel around the world, without leaving home. In 1997, he quit his job, packed an even bigger suitcase and quietly disappeared from the lives of his friends and family to pursue a new life on the open water.
One left-wing comedian learned a tough lesson last weekend from the Department of Homeland Security about why making “jokes” about killing government officials tends to be a really bad idea. Brooklyn comedian Jake Flores’ troubles began last Saturday, when he posted a series of jokes encouraging white people to atone for their Cinco de Mayo “cultural appropriation” by killing U.S. Immigration and Customs

I just made some lamb in the slow cooker for Easter. I've eaten goat in a Mexican restaurant. Very good. If they had it in the supermarket, I'd buy it.
But, the lamb turned out well.

Love the photo up top, of that pair of eagles. Got to see some of those *very* up close while on an Alaska cruise ... charter boat captain had one in a certain cove, that he'd trained to respond to his whistle.
The bird would fly down and snatch a dead bait fish which had been tossed into the water, sometimes only four or five feet from the gunwale.
That's close enough to feel the "whoosh" of wind left behind as the eagle flew past.
Very, VERY impressive bird!

What's sadder is I have this relative who has the taste of a child. I'm not a wine connoisseur by any stretch, but even I know when wine is overly sweet crap.
She has taken to giving me wine when she comes. Not just one bottle, but 4 of this raspberry moscato that makes Boone's Farm look good.
I'm thinking of using it to poach pears or something.

Lamb is a lot better tasting, I think. But I know in Mexican/Hispanic cooking, they don't really see much difference at all between mutton and goat.
Eating lamb seems cruel, but people do it because mutton tends to be greasy and gamey tasting.

"Gimme Some Lovin" is one of the greatest singles of all time. Everything about the USA release of that 45 is perfection. Because one can be overly familiar with it from casual exposure, it's easy to overlook just how great it is. I always recommend devoting some time to putting it on, using headphones (cans, not buds) or bigass old school speakers, turning that mother up and just listen to the magic.

Goat and lamb are both good. But they have to be cooked with more precision than beef. Many Americans hated lamb back in the day because it was cooked like shite. Sure it is strong flavored, particularly the old mutton they used to serve, but that is where technique comes in.

Even in well-stocked grocery stores, there are lots of things that just don't sell - fair enough, if nobody buys them, they're not going to carry them. I was pretty well resigned to making chicken stock from dozen-packs of wings and drumsticks until I found out the Oriental Mart has whole frozen stewing hens. I can't blame Kroger for not stocking them though, I'm sure if there was a demand, they would.

When I was in the ICU a few years back (long story, not necessary), the person in the room next to mine was reaching the end of his or her life. This person must have been from a huge family because every time the elevator stopped, a few more people arrived. For a day and a half, I could hear happy, joyous voices and a whole lot of laughter. I truly envied that person to have such a wonderful family gathered around him/her and spend their last hours surrounded by the sound of cheerful voices and laughter. I wish that for your sister.

Young goat is delicious. I am on my second one, raised for me by a friend. If you had only had goat, never lamb, you would think lamb was gamey and hard to like. Lamb fat is gamey. Most people don't like it, though I think it's OK. Young goat fat is sweet and delicious.
I know I won't convince anyone who has not had it -- I grossed out the food thread with my goat opinions. But maybe someone will decide to try it at some point, and see what I am talking about. There is a passage in one of the Nero Wolfe books about how any recipe that calls for lamb is better with goat.

Now that I think about it, I don't recall that I've ever had straight-up unashamed balls-to-the-wall lamb. Just a big slab of lamb staring at me from a plate. It's always been a boutique ingredient in another preparation like gyros or lamburger or kibbeh nayyeh or something. So I honestly couldn't think of what lamb actually tastes like.

Camel-oids[/]s. North America is where all the cameloid species come from. The ancestor to the Bactrian and Arabian (two-hump, one-hump) camels went went. The ancestor to the llama and vicunha went south.
It would have been cool to see what a North American cameloid would look like today. Maybe the geneticists trying to revive the mammoth could go frankenstein up some of those cameloids too.

Well, I was kind of considering having it be shorter. It's been waist length for almost 15 years.
First I had her cut off 2 inches, and then I thought a few more minutes and told her to go ahead and cut 6 more inches off.

When I was a kid, my mother would occasionally roast a leg of lamb for Sunday dinner. I wish I had paid more attention to how she fixed it. I know she rubbed it with rosemary and poured a goodly amount of red cooking wine over it before popping the lid on and putting it in the oven. Funny story: my primary care doctor is from Jordan. One visit, he wistfully asked me if I knew where to find a decent leg of lamb. I had to tell him no, that decent lamb in the Omaha area is just a pipe dream.
I scored big today. Himself loves Chinese pepper steak. Years ago, I used to make it with tri tip steak sliced thin, and it was a thing of beauty. But then the price of tri tip steak shot through the roof and kept on going. I was at Wally World today and found a package of it for dirt cheap. All that beautiful marveling -- I nearly passed out with joy. So, for once, we're going to have a decent pot of pepper steak.

Get a leg, debone it and it will be wider in the middle than on the ends. Olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary.
When you grill it, the thicker part will be rare, and the ends will be medium or well.

Well, some people threatened the publisher. Some stores said they'll boycott them and then another writer, Mark Waid got involved. Now today the publisher caved and will not publish the guy's book. Some drivel about "we believe in artistic freedom,... but"."
when ace was posting that, I was thinking that the industry may be too far gone to save. These people shutting him out are thinking "haha, we'll stay in control" but actually they're going to kill that segment.
How it would happen - first less and less people go to the comic stores, and they go broke and shut down across the country. If a mega chain like Borders can go into liquidation, so can the comic stores which have no where near the financial resources Borders had. Next, the Marvel franchise burns out as it is taken over by idiotic writing. Again, not hard to imagine as we are watching the Star Wars franchise burn out in real time.
And after that, "comics" as an industry just goes dark for 30 or 40 years - no one sells them anymore, and consequently no one makes them, except for the odd little internet corners.
maybe a future generation will pick the art form back up again, but only after everyone involved in it today has left it for good.

163 I think it is getting better these days. The late 90s and early 000s were when the fat free chicken and pork tenderloins really ruled the roost. One funny thing, these animals, particularly the pork, were engineered to be basically fat free. The result was that recommended cooking temperatures from the FDA and even on kitchen thermometers were way off. Also, the trichinosis risk is way down compared to earlier decades. Basically, if you cooked pork in particular to the level recommended, it was dry as hell and flavorless. There was no fat to baste it at all.
There are more options now if you seek them out. But domestic "heritage" meats cost.

The really incredible thing about that song is that that's Stevie Winwood when he's 17 years old. And it was the first original song he's credited with writing.
I mean damn. 17???
IIRC dude was 13 and backing Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf and all the other blues greats over in England. Was 14 when he joined SDG and 20 with Blind Faith, freaking crazy. Great Musician and vocalist and way underrated. Saw him open for Steely Dan a couple of years ago at the Tampa Amphitheater, Stellar sound and musicianship, those old farts could teach today's hacks a thing or to.

Posted by: booknlass at May 12, 2018 11:27 PM (uJ09Y)
I gotta call a miss on this one, ma'am.
The song was about the L.A. Low Rider car culture. "Low Sparkin' ", referred to the sparks resulting from a car with a near-zero ground clearance, as the chassis and various underpinnings (mufflers, primarily), made contact with high spots in the road.
"High Heeled Boys". Self explanatory in the era of the Platform Heels, bell-bottomed pants and other ...*ahem* LOUD attire concurrent with not only the Low Rider world, but much of Drug Angeles of the day.
And the ETHOS of the Low Rider. Low and Slow. Nothing phases ya. Especially not the horns being blared by other drivers whom you're slowing down, by your own slow roll. A Low Rider also, isn't taken in by "The Man's" Con Game. Hence, the line about the Man in the Suit driving a new car, etc.
Dig into that Low Rider culture. It still exists today... hell... it's never actually gone away.

Marvel Comics is doomed. There's no coming back. It's probably why they're not trying very hard to rectify things other than the bleeding obvious... and even then they "fix" one thing and go full retard on another, having not learned a damn thing. They made their bed awhile ago in a arrogant business model that shafted the buyers and retailers as they thought the millions of copies per issue sold back in the 80's and 90's could be parlayed into ransom. they were wrong. They throttled their own supply/buy base and now only sell relative handfuls of issues. Then they went batshit crazy with content around the Jemas/Quesada era and the die was cast. They're done. Even if they tried returning to the silver age in quality, they lost contact with the public and lost buyers and outlets. With the decine of hard copy paper sales of anything these days, they needed to maintain a constant, ongoing base of buyers, plus rope in the youth as new buyers against the trend. They didn't. They bet everything on ransoming a relatively fixed segment of middle age men only. Doom.

We get back and find that he has spent time during the day on our bed, the couch, two or three area rugs and a day bed. We had to air out the entire house when we got home. Several loads of laundry, a bath for the dog, baking soda and vacuum all the area rugs and we were finally able to get a handle on it.

South Omaha has a huge Hispanic population, so we also have several Hispanic grocery stores. Cruising the meat case is interesting. But goat takes up a lot of space. Unfortunately, there are other items that are not for the weak of heart.

Once took a glacier tour boat in Alaska. The skipper maneuvered close to an ice floe with a bald eagle perched on top. We were maybe 20-30 feet away. The bird raised up on his toes and spread his wings as if he was getting set to fly off. Every camera on the boat snapped at exactly the moment the eagle let go a big load of eagle poop down the front of the ice, then he settled back down in his perched position, with a rather smug look on his face I thought.

And, I did own a buck goat. Modern goatkeeping separates the bucks from the does to control when they are bred. The buck pees on his beard to attract the ladies. That's why folks tell you they stink. If you keep the bucks in with the does, they get a musky smell but don't stink as much.
Posted by: Notsothoreau at May 13, 2018 12:03 AM (Lqy/e)
Uh, no. Modern stores slash prices of the meat which is going slightly 'off'. I am pretty sure that the ancient stores did this too.

There are a lot of theories. These things evolve over time for a reason. I always heard that spicy food induces sweating, which cools the body. They also say spices can be antimicrobial. So you don't get sick.
Look at food and wine pairings. When it doubt, if you choose classic dishes from a specific region, you won't go far wrong choosing wines from the same region. Again, these things have evolved over time.

There's a huge difference between 'going slightly off' and 'actually rotten'. And another between a long stew or braise to break down cheap cuts of meat and feeding inedible meat to poor people. I know people can develop tolerances to bacteria, but actually tainted food doesn't lose toxicity when it's cooked, and the only spice that can mask actually rotting meat is thermite.

Daenerys is one of GRRM's Mary-Sues. Not a good character.
I suppose Arya is another Mary-Sue, but something in me likes Arya better. Maybe because Arya's just a horrible murderess who doesn't pretend to be anything else. Daenerys pretends to be this great dragon lady saviour of the planet when she burns people alive.
And Daenerys has Hapsburg-tier DNA. She is the Mad Queen even if GRRM doesn't want her to be.

Fish and lemon
Pork and apple sauce

Are there any others?"
Smoked trout/mackerel with horseradish whipped cream sauce.
The pairing is incredible, not to mention delicious. Every time I happen to see it on a menu, I order it. The whipped cream works with the smoky fish and the horseradish gives it that nasal-clearing, tingly bite. One of my favorite dishes I never make at home.

Heh. Rant away.
I disagree with you a bit about great actor / complex role thing. Most actors will say that they love the flaws in a character. It gives them something to work with; to build their portrayal around. If you have to play a Mary Sue, it seems to me that would be the tougher role to do well.
Anyway, I have to admit that Clarke's T&A helps me to appreciate her acting skills.

I remember throwing up from my first vodka drink at about 4 years old. My dad was fun. He also bought me my first car.

My Mom told me when I was teething, they'd give me beer. If it was really bad, that is if I was crying too much, a finger dipped in whiskey and rubbed on my gums.
So yeah, 4-years-old is a little late.

I know it sounds really bad, I remember drinking my dad's beer. Just sips. My dad drank cocktails too. I recall downing a cocktail and throwing up. The adults thought it was funny. I know my mom was not home or else it wouldn't have happened.
It's not as bad as it sounds.
I think my siblings were telling me that's what you get for drinking the drink.

Those beautiful eagles made me happy. Whosomeever picked that animal as our national symbol was spot on. Even their habit of eating the occasional carrion doesn't lower my opinion; hey, free lunch.

Well, I was able to keep the bourbon down at 4 years old. Pa sat it down on the fireplace and I must have been seriously thirsty to drink that stuff
Instead of upchucking I ran around like a crazy man for 20 minutes and then crashed for several hours. Woke up grumpy.
