ExiledInIllinois Posted February 22, 2010 Author Posted February 22, 2010 You got me there... Diplomatic immunity... They can go and do anywhere/thing they please!
Nanker Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Diplomatic immunity... They can go and do anywhere/thing they please! How do the fish know where the borders are?
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 How do the fish know where the borders are? They don't. Again... Does it matter?
Nanker Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 They don't. Again... Does it matter? Couldn't they get in trouble from the fish police?
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Couldn't they get in trouble from the fish police? I suppose they would get tased (electoshock fishing) for bad behavior. Those "fish police" have been out in force the past couple of weeks spending a good chunk of taxpayer dollars trying to find Asian carp ABOVE the fish barrier. Many other innocent fish later, not one Asian carp has been caught. You know why? There is none above the barrier. IMO: The barrier is working. The DNA that has been found came from dead fish that were on the sides of barges and got kicked/disposed of in the river/mouth of the lake. Then when the rains came... That DNA was pumped and spead by the storm sewer/sanitation system... When that becomes overburdened, they are allowed to pump that overflow right back out to the lake or to points in between. Ya... Lets spend more money to fund a group of pencil pushers that don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. Past generations for all their faults, are propbably rolling over in their graves at the stupidity. Just recently the "fish police" are making all kinds of excuses why none have been caught above the barrier... It is almost comical. Don't worry, one of the "fish police" will sneak a live one out of a tank in the trunk of their car... And "plant the evidence." You know what that is called? CYA. Hey... This is like the "war on drugs" and "reefer madness!" Fund the cops!!

ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Or maybe dem dere slanty-eyed little yellow fishy bastards is sneaky... True story. Not being insensitive... But there was an Asian decent engineer that came by and wanted to check things out about our bubbler system (helps to fight ice formation)... Now, for the life of me... I do not know why we started on the carp thing... Right out of his mouth he implied that the fish are sneaking along side the shipping when they transit the electric fish fence... Saying that most of the shock is being deflected by the vessel... I almost fell on the floor laughing. I think we need to throw down the sub nets!!! Hey... He said it!!!

Must be that rarely seen subspecies of asian carp, the Japanese Ninja Carp.
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Go Hillary go! Hillary Clinton will try and free asian carp for Passover See... The Israelis eat carp! From Wiki... Gefilte fish: ...are poached fish patties or fish balls made from a mixture of ground deboned fish, mostly carp or pike. They are popular in the Ashkenazi Jewish community.
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 28, 2010 Author Posted February 28, 2010 More on the gefilte fish: Gefilte Fish "...Borer, or sorting, is the seventh of the 39 melachot (categories of activity that are forbidden on Shabbos). It is any form of selecting or sorting inedible matter from food by hand. This includes removing undesired objects from a mixture or combination such as removing spoiled cherries from a bowl of cherries or removing bones from fish..." We might be staring at a golden opportunity! "Let my fish go!"
