That was a funny episode.  I too liked MASH.  You probably remember Hawkeye went nuts to get Adams Ribs in the of the early seasons.  He finally gets it shipped from Chicago, and when he finally gets to eat it, they are called to the OR.

 

Some of those episodes especially in the first three seasons were absolutely hilarious.  One of my favorites is “Deal Me In”.  Look. It up Augie and you’ll laugh.  MASH is still on Hulu of you ever want to watch an old episode.

 

In college when a new episode came out we could see MASH episodes up to 5 times in a single day with all the reruns.  I certainly remember Adam’s Ribs! And the sauce! I’ll look up “Deal Me In”, I’m sure I’ve seen it multiple times. One of my friends even named his dog Hawkeye, it was a big thing back in the day!

Augster, it must have been season 1 as I think it was Hawkeye named Chief Surgeon by Henry, and a big poker game that night.  Mr. Miyagi was at the game, the Australian guy from the first few seasons, Sydnee, the shrink, etc.  it was hilarious.  If not season one it was the second.  Anyway, I consider you a TBD friend so have fun.  I’m actually thinking of watching a few of them with my wife as she’s never seen it, but as I mentioned before to others,she didn’t have a TV growing up.  You gotta love the Communist nation of China.

Out of curiosity, what topic were you speaking on? Like you I used to love giving talks at the local schools. The kids are hilarious

SoCal: as a young pup, I was first a WMD investigator/inspector, by/thru the UN, for ~8 yrs. Later, I went into the Deep Black Hole for many years during GWOT. 

 

So, oddly enough, I had a 3 year window where I could speak publicly. My "main speech(s)" during the window was/were about WMD threat, and (for Execs) successfully executing w a multi-national team in highly variable, hostile environments.

 

There was great interest in Detroit area due to demographics, and I spoke to Auto Execs XYZ, Chamber of Commerce, Wayne State, others.

 

For the kids, I turned it into "The Big Treasure Hunt" and would always start w "how would you find the (WMD) treasure?". The enthusiasm and attention fr the kids was profoundly inspiring, esp in the face of their many challenges.

 

I'll spare you the TL/DR addendum which explains my  strange little known-suddenly public-really unknown career arc.

 

Apologies for long reply, as this is a food, vice LAMP thread.

Anyone want to talk about pig tails or feet?

I'll bite, Spikes: pigs feet are/is essential for The Best Tomato Gravy/Sauce...period. Must be lovingly prepared, of course.

 

Eating the tender trotters, w a "spit bowl" for the bones, is definitely in my Top 3 fav food experiences.

Mom never really used pigs feet in the pasta sauce.

 

The wife uses them in souse but boils the living crap out of them.

 

I will eat them but I prefer tripe, oxtail or beef tongue.

 

Pigs feet are dirt cheap so I often bring the wife 5 lbs home.

Copy all Spikes.

 

Actually, my Sicilian grandmother never used them, but my best friend's GM--also fr Sicily--was a Maestro of the Feet. Thus began my love for the lesser of the pig.

 

@Ray Stonada: crap, just remembered another part re Detroit catfish recipe: the owner insisted on using corn meal vs AP flour. Unfortunately, I don't remember the full dredge steps. Hope this helps!

Either Tandoori Chicken or Shrimp Masala and an ice cold Kingfisher Beer - Daughters B-Day and she chose Indian food.

 

I'll see the first half of the game, hopefully I'm not queasy at dinner.

The wife uses pig tails in souse she makes as well.

 

It is a thick soup in the end that has to be fattening since unlike the chicken or duck broth a routinely make, there is no skimming off the fat after cooling overnight.

 

I can eat half a bowl and I am full and can feel my arteries hardening.

I know that feeling from the beef shank stew I make—cooks for 6-8 hours and gets thick like jello when it cools…

I love shanks -- beef, veal, lamb, etc.

 

I bought 6 fresh Ontario lamb shanks for the wife last weekend which she braised and stewed up with mash potatoes for lunch on Sunday.

Osso buco is one of my favorite dishes. Too bad the Bills never play AC Milan…

We play the New York Jets on December 29th and Brooklyn is in New York...

 

 

 

 

 

This Italian Osso Buco recipe is very easy to prepare. Robust and elaborate, Osso Buco is always on the top of the list of Italian dishes. It's extravagant, decadent, and over-the-top flavors makes everyone want one. Osso Buco is the Ferrari of Italian dishes. Osso Bucco itself originated from Northern Italy. This is truly one of our favorite Italian meals and we are very happy to share it with you.

I once read an article by a pizza connoisseur who had traveled all over the US sampling pizza.  He said two of the best cities were obvious: NY and Chicago.  But he opined that he'd place two other cities in the top three: Detroit and Buffalo. 

 

For me, pizza is THE choice for Sunday's game.

I dont know... Pizza and wings were 3-0 for away games and now its 3-1... I struggle with ... well thats a pretty good record or the mojo ran out... go with the 3-1 for the win... or be the potential sole reason the Bills lost because I didnt  change it up... this game clearly hinges on me and my decision and I dont want to screw it up! 😄
