Did I say anything? No, I didn't say a word, did I? Everyone thinks all I ever do is gloat. Am I gloating now? No. Not gloating even a teeny tiny bit.

Enjoy your meat.

what do they make out of cow heads that we would be eating? Bologna? Beef stock? Beef hot dogs?

Pasta alfredo sounding good tonight ...

I think you have to be really well-known or a hipster to get tip picked up by Slog Tipping via e-mail, so I'll just link here.

But Dan, I thought you'd find it interesting that the Philadelphia Gay News isn't happy with Obama. They say he's refusing to speak with the Gay press.

Oh darn, and I just packed in my month's supply of cow heads - now I'm going to have to take them all back.

If you get grass-fed, organic beef you can safely eat the yummy, yummy tonsils, thymus, and brains.

Mmmmmm, head-cheese sandwichs and deep-fried sweet-breads. Just like home cooking.

It's good to see that Chun Li from Street Fighter was able to find work.

I keep asking "Karen" salacious questions, but she pretends she doesn't understand. Oh, I think she understands. When I ask her to rub hamburger on her breasts she is full of detail.

I think somebody wishes their own blog was popular do they wouldn't have to constantly hijack threads to get attention.

lol@9. But really, elenchos, you won't be so smug about the vegetarian thing when some E.coli-colonized salad greens turn your innards into gumbo.

I take it you haven't had Tacos de Cabeza (beef heads). The places that serve it usually also offer Sesos, Orejas, Ojos and Lengua (brains, ears, eyes and tongue. In the poorer parts of Mexiccan towns tacos made from beef heads are common. The heads are simmered overnight in large cauldrons and the meat is picked off the skulls in the morning and ready for the lunch crowd.

fnarf, you really are a poet at heart.

Oh, but I AM a poet, Ellarosa. It's just that it's all about breasts and ground meat, and no one wants to read it.

Cabeza is my second-favorite taco meat choice, after carnitas. So rich, so delicious.

and i asked: "cow heads make?"

she answered: "Deer live in woodlands all over Europe, Asia, northern Africa and America. There are many deer species of various sizes but all the males grow antlers. The meat is lean and has a gamey flavor that can be made milder if soaked overnight."

useful, no?

i'm not surprised to find beef head in a lot of the more processed meats, including bologna and hot dogs. just not tonsils though.
