Blue Meat

Blue meat. It comes from these guys. Absolutely delicious by the way - one of my all time favorite fish. The meat turns a normal color as soon as it is cooked.

Been calling a restaurant advertising beef aged some 24 months. Unfresh beef can be tasty without making you sick. Others can enjoy it.

Yes, so-called “dry aged beef” is cold-stored until the outer layers are dried out, cracked and rotten,then carved down to the “good” meat remaining. I’ve had it. Not worth the cost, IMHO.

What the hell is that thing?

I’m not seeing the name of that fish. But what a nice surprise to learn about it. Looks tasty!

Anyway, I think the tweets about Obama tapping Trump’s phones are a good example of what I am trying to sort of express/bring into view. heh. Trump can’t blame the media for creating this, it comes straight from him. And it goes straight to the headlines. It fills up a lot of column inches and air time that might otherwise be devoted to policy discussion that actually matters, so- is that the purpose? Trump seems at least somewhat unsteady regardless, but I can’t help wondering if there is more to the motive for it beyond some combination of poor judgment, ignorance and lack of impulse control.

ETA: along the lines of “red herring” lol

Splash La-la…! La-la-la-la…
Ow! Ow! Ow! Holy Shit, you mother-fucking fish! Give Me BacK My Leg!!!
Papa Smurf…! Papa Smurf! HELP!!!
:eek: :smiley:


So far, they HAVE been the “Hold my beer” administration…

It is the mighty lingcod. As noted about 1 in 5 are that weird blue color and though that first photo is the sort of pale blue I remember seeing most often, they can get very blue. They’re absolutely voracious monsters - I caught one as a “hitchhiker” once. It had grabbed a smaller ( though still a few pounds ) rockfish I had hooked and was reeling in and refused to let go even though it wasn’t hooked itself.

Fox News host calls on Speaker Ryan to resign after President Trump tells fans to watch her show

I gotta call 'em like I see 'em. A Republican president directing his followers to listen to a broadcaster argue for the sacking of a Republican Speaker of the House is blue meat.

It is a rare piece of common ground between Trump and I. Ryan has got to be one of the most soulless congresscritters ever to befoul the Hill. Resign, Ryan! Nom nom, blue meat!
