Mindless Chatter - Sat

Brrrrrr. It's FREEZING here.  Was so sticky yesterday that we had to crack the windows during that awful thunder storm....then overnight it got bitter cold.....ok, in the forties, but that's a lot colder then it's been.  Never got out of the forties today, and the wind is really, really strong.

Doesn't it just figure?  Today was the LAST of my rabies series....which means I don't have to worry about being quarentined if I bite anyone....but THIS time I decided to react to the danged thing.  Nausia. dizziness and a bit of swelling around my mouth, despite taking benedryl.  Crap.  Makes me mad enough to actually bite someone......

 LOL Glenda, I wouldn't be so sure.  Crusher had to be quarentined when he bit Kali and he was up to date on his vaccs...

A Coney dog is a hot dog that has a kind of chili/gravy sauce on it with lots of onions... sounds kind of odd until you have one.  Its a Thunder Bay specialty.

Shoot.  OK, so at least they won't euth me and cut off my head to send it off for testing.

The sauce for a chili or coney dog is like an ubber thick chili, minus the beans.  Usually ground beef, onions, spices and some tomato sauce. THEN you wanna add a ton of fresh diced onions on top of that.  Dang it...who brought those up??  Now I want chili dogs instead of pasties for dinner. And the pasties are already in the oven.

Besides, it would be a good reason to stick around home with only your immediate family, and pets.  Course...your DH would have to leash you if he took you anywhere...

Oh please don't give him any ideas.  Although, does sound a little kinky......hmmmmmmm 

Interesting, Glenda. I never thought of you as rabid.

I guess we never really know anyone, do we?

I will have you know Ron, that I am NOT rabid and I have my rabies certificate...they wouldn't give me a tag....to prove it.  I was actually looking forward to having a pretty blue tag.  Would have gone very nicely with the gold county license tag.

Guess it really is a dogs world after all.  THEY get the pretty blue tags.  Sigh.

But, I actually have been known to bite.........

And I had a cheeky rejoinder but never mind. Speaking of biting, I get to spend a bunch more money on some dental work. Luck of the Irish, I suppose.

I just had my first canned tripe experience. One of the dogs boarding at work has it.

 Never, ever will that grossness enter my household. OOOOOMMMGGGG. Gag me.

Aw, come on. You've got to try at least the human version. I've had the mexican version, menudo. I would like to try the scottish version, haggis.

Then, again, my asst. scoutmaster when I was in scouts was an Army Ranger and his instructor taught us how to eat things that would make a billy goat puke.

No, never. EVER. I am still kind of gagging.

Don't knock haggis till you've tried it! It's actually pretty good! Serves me right for having a true scotsman family as my "adoptive" home. Lol. My friend's mom was born and raised in Scotland and she likes to try and gross me out by feeding me weird stuff then telling me after I ate it, what it was..Many trips hugging the toilet in my younger years and I didn't even drink! Lol. 

DW and I shop at a place called GermanDeli.com, which is based in Southlake, Texas (north of DFW Intl. Airport). The last time we were there, I wanted to buy some head cheese but I couldn't convince DW to get some. Head cheese is a sausage made of the bits and pieces from the head of a pig, usually. She might have a good point. In north Texas, some deer population have bot fly. The larva lives in the sinus cavity. Sometimes, the deer hacks it up and then swallows it. By the time it makes it out in a pile of deer scat, it becomes a bot fly that will go on to fly into the nose of another ruminant. Though I have seen pics of a dog that had a bot fly bite.
