You Madam are a class act. I have an abandoned well on my property for easy clean-up after dinner parties.

You guys are startin to sound like a couple of damned lazy-minded liberals here.   I mean....  there's always the garden for that clean-up.   Use your imagination.  Get productive!  What the hell.

The garden is only so big.  Anymore you've got to be real careful where you dig.

Lazy? You try finding a place with an unmarked abandoned well.

I've taken to making my own pickles lately.  Brine is traditionally a salt and water mixture.  Pickles made by fermenting cucumbers in brine are "sour pickles", not dill pickles, and don't have the vinegar content that dill pickles do.  I make sour pickles, but then when they are done fermenting I add vinegar because we like that flavor better than the sour pickles.

This is no surprise to me - Home remedy folks have been saying all the way along that fermented foods and pickled foods, dropped from our diet with refrigeration... those pickled foods have huge health and energy benefits - restoring ph balance to the body... And I blame quite a bit of my health success upon this... It is true. eat way more pickled and fermented food.

Tried to smoke a fish once!  Rolled that sucker up into a big dubie and used a whole box of matches trying to get the damned thing lit!  No joy!  It sucked!

Next time soak it in a tub of diesel overnight before you try to smoke it.

Oh yeah, I meant to tell you I found a little private owned slaughter service not too far from me and am getting half a small grass-fed heffer for $3/lb.  That's like half the price of just ground chuck from the regular grocery store I go to.

I'm also trying to get a box of fat from them that I can render, but they have some guy there named "Poncho" that works for them, that takes most of it and renders it and sells it to some of the authentic Mex restaurants in the area.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
I'd much rather drink dill pickle juice than Gatoraide.
Same here--and I do drink it instead of Gatorade. (I drink the juice out of those little yellow chili peppers, and pickled jalapenos, too.)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

WOW! That's an awesome price... I think we are paying around 7.50... I don't really recall, because I am usually in on the raising and partnered into the cow itself...

Nah!,  I smoked a Lucky Strike Green out of a box of WWII C rats once . Burned the hair out of my nose before I could get the damned match away from it!

I know. I was shocked she was selling it to me that cheap.  Black angus.  Sounds like it was a heifer that wasn't playing well with anyone else, so they butchered her before turning the bull into the pasture with all of them.  So it was raised by the owners of the slaughter house.  I think the hanging weight is about 375# for the whole thing.  So, an unplanned slaughter and they need to get rid of the meat; I think I'm just lucking out.

And that is why you are Satan. Gatoraide is one of the finest beverages ever created......by a slack jawed southern university.


At least it wasn't invented at Florida State.  Seminole Fluid just doesn't sound as appetizing.
