Members alphanguy74 Posted August 23, 2011 Members Share Posted August 23, 2011 SFK, promise not to freak out, but for my birthday last year, we had fried squirrel, mashed potatoes and gravy, and lambsquarter greens (then finished it off with lemon cake and homemade ice cream). Squirrel is something us ozark bumpkins eat all the time! LOL When I worked in a garden center in the city years ago, I took leftover fried squirrel for my lunch one day, you'd thought I set off a bomb in that place! People couldn't believe it.

Members ReddFoxx Posted August 24, 2011 Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 Squirrel melts is crazy. I pass squirrels all the time where I live, as there are a ton of them and I would never even think of them as food. That cat looks possessed, lol.

Members SFK Posted August 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 alpha, my uncle hunts and he's gotten squirrel but I've never been over when he had it. Is it good?? Well, duh, I guess you'll say yes, lol. I have had rabbit which I liked, and plenty of venison. How would you describe squirrel flavor? I don't think I'm against squirrel so much as I was creeped out by our lovely host. "I promised him a squirrel sandwich and THAT is what he's gonna get eeeafter skew-uhl. You've heard of tuna melts or patty melts, why not *squirrel* melts? ... Put his little tender butt in there... You know how squirrels love nuts."

Members alphanguy74 Posted August 24, 2011 Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 I admit, I did have a kee-cackle at the "tender butt" line... To be honest with you, it's not a whole lot different than rabbit, sometimes it's a little tougher, actually. I'm not a lover of deer meat, it has a funny taste that bothers me, just like lamb does. My people eat coons and possums as well, but I don't care for those, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 Oh, I know exactly that taste you're talking about with lamb. To me, veal has it too. I don't care for either. I don't really get that taste from deer. However. I learned that you must cut off ALL the fat on a deer steak. It is not flavorful like the fat on a beef steak, it is downright rancid, like greasy, rotting fish. I guess that's the "gamey" taste. I think I would try raccoon and opossum if it were prepared for me by an expert. Possums are some of the most peculiar/ugly/frightening(yet harmless)-looking animals I have ever come face-to-face with and I don't know if I'd be able to shake the image of that face. And raccoons seem too close to cats and dogs, but if I've already had my Bambi and Thumper I guess I could get over that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted August 28, 2011 Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 Omg SFK...just omg. This one makes me want to cry! Just the way she landed. I really wonder what happened after and if she was ok. I'm going to be thinking about this for days now lol that was just tragic. I can't stop rewinding. Only funny part to me is that her wig fell off. LMAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 28, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 LOL! I know it's the lowest form of humor, but people falling down just sends me into "I can't breathe" laughter. And I mean, seriously, was she expecting to land on her feet like Dominique Dawes?? In slow-mo, the camera woman saying, "Uhhhhhh ohhhhhh, uuuuuu ooooookkkkkk???" LMAO!

"These strangers, they quickly became my friends". ROFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 28, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 28, 2011 LOL! I always get a kick out of ths commercial, it's one of the many terribly depressing commercials for the poor, the old, and the sick that they are constantly playing on Antenna TV. Like Cancer Treatment Centers of America, shape shoes, and the Cymbalta mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 Well... speaking of commecials and such for personal problems, here is something I just saw last night. I'll admit, i'm darned tempted to call Martha on the phone and ask her "Your'e talking about constipation? What are you DOING!" But she seems so genuinely jazzed here, I wouldn't have the heart. But whenever her and Maxine Powell are together, there are some old lady diva quotes that will always have you rolling on the floor. But y'all can be honest with me, now... my queen is having a Dionne Warwick "Psychic friends" moment, isn't she? The good stuff starts about 6:00 #!

Members alphanguy74 Posted August 29, 2011 Members Share Posted August 29, 2011 can't decide which line I like better.. Martha saying "You just suck it off", or Mrs. Powell and her "I was taking 5 prunes a day and only half getting action". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
