English, about 10 years earlier.

Once again, I am reminded of the barbecue where the guy called out "Hey! When are you gonna put on the chicken for us vegetarians!" Good times.

This is all balanced out by the guy who brought in a whole pig. He's totally cool.

I'll say. Mmmmm. Whole pig. I managed to get a couple of ribs and hunk of shoulder at Baconfest, so I managed to have ribs and pulled pork. Teh yum!

That said, it was a bit disconcerting after they'd carved up most of the pig for serving and a horde of people descended on what was left of the carcass. I thought I'd stepped into a George Romero zombie movie.

Good school. Crazy conservative (at least then). McGill Dorm, perchance?

I was in McGill my senior year, when it went co-ed.

McGill talk confusing me.

The pig wasn't a huge one--three or so feet laid out. Guts were replaced with seasoned vegetables (of which I had none--what's the point?) and the ribs on one side had been removed, I think, for easy access.

Aside from the taste sensation that is lechon, I got to sink the cleaver into the pig's skull a couple time. Interesting what krav people think is excessive behaviour.

A vegetarian-since-birth (pescetarian, whatever) instructor came in and frowned at it, and then said it smelled really good. I can't imagine the position she's in. But I did read somewhere that bacon was the #1 gateway meat that broke vegetarians.

I was in McGill sophomore through senior. T'was an education in itself. Sometimes I regret not studying more, then I remember what I did instead, and I feel I got a very useful education despite not graduating cum laude. There should be an award for "Maintaining an A Average While Stoned".

eta Sorry, ita: McGill is/was the dorm at Vandy where the philosophy students and the stoners congregated.

I don't use bumper stickers because you can never get them off. It's too much committment.

exactly! I want something magnetic. Of course, bumpers are plastic now, so that's kind of an issue.

Interesting what krav people think is excessive behaviour.

I didn't know that you recognized the concept!

I fail to see the problem with that scenario.

Clearly, juliana is the SF me with a better haircut.

Anyone have any idea what would pair well with pear (Heh) vodka besides Cranberry?

My wife's car has a "I Don't Have To Like Bush To Love My Country" sticker on it, and it didn't occur to her for a long time (years, actually) that if you take it at a bit more than face value, it says, "I am a gay liberal man."

Hee.

I used to have a "Fight Prime Time: Read a Book" bumper sticker on my old Honda, but it became too hypocritical after I got sucked into online television fandom. (I blame you all!)

The new Sube has no stickers on it: I don't really like giving strangers that much insight into my political opinions, especially if I'm going to a project site out in the Central Valley or something.

I would put a UMass sticker on the rear window, if I had one...
