Message #287 of 2744  *NEW* To From Subject Date BBlast Larry Levy   Re: saw Danny... 10/9/03, 9:12am Danny Roll..Didn't he used to play for the Rams? I saw an interesting new type of sushi the other night. It was on Bobby Flay's show on Food Network. He visited a kobe beef ranch in Texas and a sushi chef who carves thin slices of kobe beef as sushi, sashimi style. He also had another dish that featured thin strips of kobe beef that you cook at your table on a hot rock. Interesting. -------------------------------------------------------- " I lift up mine eyes to the hills, whence cometh my help.", Psalm 121 -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #287 • Back to Topics

Message #289 of 2744  *NEW* To From Subject Date BBlast Rob Reed   Re: saw Danny... 10/9/03, 7:35pm We saw him last Friday... I meant to say something... because Hyakumi had just ordered a good amount of Bluefin tuna... AND, I have to tell you... it was the best TORO I ever had. Danny is such a cool guy. Our normal mainstay -- Chiba -- well, to put it NICELY, the head chef Shig seems to have a thing against Marie and I. Or maybe we're just imagining things... he's just not that nice (but seems nice to others). Danny, James, and crew are a pleasure... and Hyakumi has now become our sushi joint of choice. -------------------------------------------------------- "Treat the Earth not as if it was given to you by your parents, but as if it was lent to you by your children." - Kenyan Proverb "The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism by those that do not have it." - George Bernard Shaw -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #289 • Back to Topics

Something about "steak sushi" that just sounds a bit nasty... like going out, shooting the steer, taking the knife, and eating tasty morsels.

Yea, I hear that..we have a place we used to go to called Selfish Sushi..decent food really..but the sushi chef also didn't seem to like us. Sometimes you would ask him to just make up a roll and rather than enjoy doing that, he would come up with a fried rice ball or something stupid. We finally quit going there and Hyakumi is also now "our" sushi place. We should plan on meeting up sometime..usually, Wednesday night is our "date night" and that is where we often end up. -------------------------------------------------------- "All human arrogance and ego can be expressed in two words.

That risk is not making some female very, very lucky. The risk is death from the bacteria. I believe that under certian circumstances raw shell fish can cause death if you have (I'm not sure if it is liver or kidney problems). I eat them steamed or baked now. We have a local resturaunt that serves them baked with cheeses and other goodies on them and they are delicous. I also eat Po Boy oysters. That is when you can't afford the oysters so you put cocktail sauce on a cracker and eat it like the oyster is there. Try it. They are remarkably good. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #323 • Back to Topics

I think it has been..oh..maybe 5 years since I had a California Roll and even then, it was in a sushi class that my wife gave me for a birthday. I haven't ordered a California Roll in 15 years. BTW, thinking of having some sushi around for the Chili cook off. (As an extra thing.)

You are correct..if you feel something like sand in an oyster..it's sand. It's not the oyster's fault..it's the person shucking and cleaning's fault. My fav with oysters is a plain old cocktail sauce...the hotter the better. Usually not a sushi bar item...more of a oyster bar item. BTW, I dunno if anybody mentioned why Robert said he was leary of oysters..it's it because oysters COULD have some nasties and could cause problems with the ol tum tum. This usually comes from the old stand-by of what not to eat (the oyster is rotten). And the way to avoid such a problem is the same as any other fish...if it smells bad, don't eat it. -------------------------------------------------------- "All human arrogance and ego can be expressed in two words.

My mother-in-law told me that the primary method for cleaning the sand out SHOULD be to place the oysters in fresh water overnight... apparently, they "spit" out the sand... I'm thinking that they are actually gasping for life as salt-water creatures in fresh water...but it is certainly nicer (but not likely to be PETA-approved) to say that they're just spitting. -------------------------------------------------------- "Treat the Earth not as if it was given to you by your parents, but as if it was lent to you by your children." - Kenyan Proverb "The power of accurate observation is often called cynicism by those that do not have it." - George Bernard Shaw -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #330 • Back to Topics

Message #341 of 2744  *NEW* To From Subject Date murphy brown Robert Jones   Re: saw Danny... 10/13/03, 10:16pm I clipped and pasted this from another website. http://www.liverfoundation.org/db/articles/1055 What is Vibrio vulnificus? Vibrio vulnificus is a bacteria that can cause sever illness or death to at-risk people who eat raw oysters or clams. From 1989 to 2000, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recorded 282 serious illnesses associated with consumption of raw oysters and clams containing the Vibrio vulnificus bacteria. While illnesses are infrequent, about half (149) have resulted in death. Where is it found? Vibrio vulnificus is found naturally in warm coastal waters, such as the Gulf of Mexico, where levels of the bacteria are elevated during the summer months. Vibrio vulnificus is NOT a result of pollution, and can be found in waters approved for oyster and clam harvesting. Vibrio vulnificus does NOT change the appearance, taste, or odor of oysters or clams. Are you at risk? You are at risk of serious illness if you eat raw oysters or clams and have any of these health conditions: Liver disease (from hepatitis, cirrhosis, alcoholism, or cancer) Iron overload disease (hemochromatosis) Diabetes Cancer (including lymphoma, leukemia, Hodgkin's disease) Stomach disorders Or any illness or medical treatment that weakens the body's immune system Unsure of your risk? Ask your doctor. Healthy people are not at risk of serious infection. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #341 • Back to Topics

I remember my mom cooking them up in our travel trailer..and her jumping back when the clams started to "spit". I must've been like 7 years old and for some reason, I remember that vividly.

You will nearly crack a tooth. That's because you use a shotgun... There was an old friend of my parents that just recently passed away that was THE "whip-man" stunt man for the movie industry. For something like 40 years in the movies, if someone had a whip and used it, it was probably Carl on the other end. Anyway, Carl moved to Hemet to a ranch and had a problem with rabbits...like WAY too many. So Carl used to keep a .22 handy...now, Carl liked to give the animal a bit of a chance, and when he used to to hunt, he would use a bow and arrow. Also, Carl was well...cheap. So when it came to using his .22, he didn't want to waste a shot on a single animal, so he would wait until he could line up at LEAST 2 and sometimes 3 before he would pull the trigger.

I have hunted with a pistol, bow and arrow, muzzle loader, and I even killed a squirrel with a knife once. For safety and marksmanship reasons I never used a rifle to hunt flying birds. I can't really recall having squirrels or other game animals line up for a single multiple kill shot with one exception. That exception was that I had the dubious distinction of killing two deer with one bullet once. As you said he had too many wabbits awound so that may have been his good fortune. My experience with wabbits is that they were plentiful during the summer but as fall approached and the foilage thinned the predators had taken a toll on their numbers. As hunting season approached where I lived the game got scarce quick. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #363 • Back to Topics

I didn't say I was gleeful about it. Back then, living on a farm it was a part of agriculture. I was glad to bring home some squirrels, rabbits, ducks, deer, whatever. It was groceries. I had a lot of pride and still do in my ability to survive and prowess in finding game and bringing home dinner. I have found that today I am becoming much more urbanized and I hardly ever hunt any more. I have a distaste for killing and I my passion for being outdoors has evolved into an enjoyment of wildlife photography and a general enthusiasm for some extreme outdoor sports. Today I even balk a little at fishing. When one discusses hunting, trapping, and even fishing it often stirs harsh feelings. It is a very touchy subject. I want to add more later and I will as I have more time. Perhaps I have opened a can of worms here. I will continue the dialog in future posts. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #365 • Back to Topics

Sorry I didn't mean to offend...It's just a different way of life like you said....You use the resources available. Your fresh fish no doubt was wonderful. -------------------------------------------------------- "Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting..Holy Shit!!

Hopefully I didn't horrify you to much on that end Murph. I find now days that I would rather serve as deck hand and captian and allow a guest and in this case my 11 year old nephew the chance to do the hooking and reeling. I do happen to love the taste of wild game but I don't bring any to the house anymore with the exception of the occaisional fish. Venison in particular is a very healthy lean food item. There are some warnings out to not eat fish too often because of the mercury content of the meat. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #373 • Back to Topics

Your stories about growing up were fantastic. You never mention Bunny. Is she still around? -------------------------------------------------------- "Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting..Holy Shit!!

The last time I talked to her was about three weeks ago. I felt like she was trying to avoid talking to me and I caught her with call waiting talking long distance. She said, "I will call you right back"..... I am still waiting for that returned phone call. -------------------------------------------------------- Friends are the best collectibles -------------------------------------------------------- • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #375 • Back to Topics

I do remember an uncle who had a rabbit farm. Never saw anything gory just the rabbit pelts hanging on dryers. Never liked rabbit..Maybe that's why. -------------------------------------------------------- "Life's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting..Holy Shit!!
