Swai is apparently a farmed Asian catfish, according to my Google-Fu. Some recipes fer ya.
My Mama would wear me out with a cornstalk!
Swai is a rather generic whitefish. Almost painfully generic - 20 years ago, you might have found it at the grocery store labeled as FISH. Good for people who think they don’t like fish as it’s about as un-fishy and devoid of personality as you could hope for. I’ve cooked it before and it’s really only as good as whatever you put on it.
If you look into it, you’ll find controversy about how it’s raised, but frankly, I can’t think of any other seafood that doesn’t have some sort of stigma , whether it’s farmed in poor conditions, or it’s from overseas, so it puts American fisherman out of work, or it comes from polluted waters, etc… If you want 100% guilt-free fish, get yourself a fishing license and go drown some worms. Oh wait - worm cruelty!
I had a dentist with a lisp once – he only spoke the tooth.
I always thought that was Hawaiian. The mainland version being noassatoll.
:drive by blurfing:
I cooked fajitas last night, but was uber-lazy and didn’t clean the kitchen. Which is bad because I have someone coming over tonight, right when I get home, to give me a massage. 
It was originally because I had a knot in my back that had been bothering me for like a month, except my mom was over on Friday and worked on it and now it seems better. So now it’s luxury, which I feel a little bad about. (It’s $70 for an hour, which won’t really hurt me, but I’m cheap…)
But I figure she won’t judge me too harshly for having a messy place.
Kids! Don’t Blurf and Drive!!! :eek:

**Emily **- Yay! for being published. 
Your remark about butts on/off computers reminded me of She Devil - especially this bit:
Happy Tuesday.
I’m looking out my window watching the neighbor work on his truck, in a… get this…
Tshirt!
The sun is shining, but there’s still snow on the ground and everything looks soggy.
I hate paying bills by check. I sent out 4 checks last Tuesday afternoon, 2 had cleared by Thursday morning and the other 2 are still out there somewhere floating around. I don’t know why all companies don’t accept online payments. Then again last month Allstate was so slow in taking out my car insurance that I was getting ready to call them. It’s due on the first, they usually take it on the 5th, last month they didn’t take it until the 9th.
I know, I know, I’m anal… but I don’t like financial mix ups or surprises.
**FCM ** I worked for a company that if you came in one morning and your badge didn’t work that meant you had been fired. The cowards didn’t have the nerve to tell people to their face so they locked them out and sent them to payroll. Off course one day there was a problem and the whole department thought they had been let go. Would have served them right if everybody had walked off the job and gone home.
How did poor little Higgs do with her spaying?
**Spaz ** hope you feel better.
Me too! TMBG are coming to Richmond later this year. Mr. Jynxster won’t take me. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
As to the Mexican Coke thing, Mr. Jynxster insists on getting some at Costco everytime we go. It comes in real glass bottles and is really expensive. He says he can taste the difference as it is made with cane suger vice the HFCS. I dont have that sensitive of a soda palate.
I just realized I didnt take anything out for din-din tonight (we freeze all of our meat). Hmmmmm, we just went out last night. Decisions, decisions…
A tidy house is the sign of a sick mind. That needs to be cross-stitched on a throw pillow.
My easy-peasy fixture design is turning into the project from the depths of Satan’s nether regions. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, I discovered that there’s a serious interference issue. The easiest fix is to trim the corner off a goniometer (that sounds painful!!!) the hardest is to use a different goniometer which will require a major redesign of the whole fixture. I’m thinking we’ll be trimming.
It’s not as much fun as it sounds. Plus there’s a serious lack of chocolate in my cubicle. Life is so hard sometimes… 
Back to lunch.
**sari **- spaying is tomorrow…
Hello all, happy Tuesday
My life has gotten weird, really weird. Tomorrow is my 11th wedding anniversary. What’s that you say Jim is married? Yep, married, we made it about six months then I cut up our rings with bolt cutters and left. She disappeared a few months later, I got an occasional call then about 8 years ago she walked off the face of the Earth. You all get one guess who called me yesterday. :dubious:
New band practice tonight woo hoo
Jim
Hey Bunz, I’ll be passing through the Cleveland area Firday. Should I honk and wave?
GT, I’ll be going back via Columbus Monday, so you won’t feel left out. 
It is 56 degrees outside.
I still have a sore throat and headache.
I have to go walk hell pup.
Happy Anniversary Capt.
I think.
you could take a detour of a couple hundred miles east if’n you really wanted to . . . jus’ sayin’.
:eek:
Why is it that people don’t understand that if you consistently spend more than you make you end up in trouble?
I know the economy sux right now, I know so many out of work and struggling to make ends meet, but dammit when you are living that way you don’t need to have the latest phone, or a huge TV or go out for an expensive dinner once a week.
All I hear is… but I don’t have anything, I don’t have anything to look forward to, I can’'t live like that, you don’t understand you have a job, you have something to look forward to… OH look RentACenter is having a sale!, I’d be a fool to pass up a big screen TV for that price, especially with the Ravens in the superbowl!
Then they wonder why they can’t pay their rent, cuss the utilities for turning off their power and for not understanding they just don’t have the money, and get pissed off at rich people for not understanding their plight.
WTFever.
Oh and then they want to hit me up for a loan.
I dumped one sorry ass friend for who ended up homeless because of stupid decisions, I felt guilty but dammit somewhere in there they have to get a clue.
Now I’m watching someone else do it and I just want to smack them
Do there people live with their heads in the sand?

Should I be alarmed that I not only know what a goniometer is, but I’ve had them used on me?
Hidden so people can ponder just how kinky that might be…
It’s a protractor-ish device used for measuring angles. Physical terrorists often use them to evaluate how well your range of motion is returning after surgery or injury.
This morning was so warm I cast longing looks over to the Sportster; it was like 52. But having royally banged my hip and throwing my back out falling on the ice yesterday morning, I sighed and got in the car.
