All is unforgiven
Poog’s Valentine’s Day present to me was to chuck her vegetarianism. That’s so damn cool.
Even cooler: it’s not a passive kind of vegetarianism-chucking. She’s since ordered steak fajitas and a couple of days ago, she picked up a few filet mignons. How cool is that? It’s so damn cool, that’s how cool it is.
My present to Poog? Erm… eh… um… yeah. Zilch. Unless you count the dungeness crabs I brought home at the end of last week as a present. Or the fact that I got a gold medal on a really hard mission in Army Men: RTS. Or the desire I have to be a kinder, gentler person. Or the fact that I haven’t “accidentally” misplaced one of her dogs. Or the fact that I got a haircut about a week and a half ago. Somehow, I don’t think these things count, and I realize that this classifies me as Schmuckimus Maximus.
I make a damn good filet mignon, though. Damn good. Still, I get the feeling that even if I made the best-est filet mignon in the world, it wouldn’t make up for my schmuckosity.
So since Poog gave up vegetarianism, I feel compelled to make a similar sacrifice, and I’d like to make said sacrifice known to the public.
From now until the end of my days, I will never eat llama brains. Ever. It’s going to be hard, but I will forever stick to my word.
The things we do for love!

I would like to state for the public record that as far as I know, this post was not prompted by any complaining or allegations of schmuckiness on my part. I didn’t really mind, actually.
Although the not-eating-llama-brains thing…I can think of things I’d rather have. Somebody please send us an GREAT llama brain recipe, so at least he’ll have to work at it.

poog, that is damn cool. fyi: after looking online, it seems you could substitute llama for sheep, wrap in bacon and roast- or make haggis.
res, is the compulsion to not eat llama brains out of poog-love or chuck-related guilt? or a mix?
If chuck-r guilt is involved- are you sure you’re not catholic?

Poog, it would be a disservice to send a llama brain recipe. I must go wit Res wisdom on this one, or haven’t you heard about the recent outbreak of mad llama disease in the Andes? Surely he’s told you of it. In early stages the llama loses its surefootedness. In the Andes that gets serious fast, and few llamas progress further. The disease advances to a fetishistic craving to eat high altitude coca leaves, to the exclusion of all other food, ultimately leading to shootings by the local agrarians much like wolf killing by our cattlemen. In humans in the later stages the disease can lead to unnanounced visits by large armed gentlement with badges at any time of day or night. Truly ugly. There are even rumors that what’s happened to Mike Tice and Geraldo Rivera happened from eating tainted llama brain. At least that’s what the promoters for their planned bout this July are saying.
