Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Tommy, I was thinking in terms of meat. I come from three generations of people in the meat business. It's the "grass finished" thing that I can't make sense of.

I hate video games, but I have family-dynamics issues about them.

What are your issues?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What kind of chicken and eggs should I buy then? I try to be good hard responsible-consumer-man!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

iirc, Pollan talks about grass-fed vs. grain-finished. That is, it's a typo (or rather thinko).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. I was thinking dairy because sometimes dairy cattle get sold for meat. But now that I think of it, this must be a small percentage of meat out there, huh?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Farmer's market/CSA. They're hella expensive, but I have to admit, they do taste a LOT better.

Growing up, video games were very strongly gender-segregated in my family; my father and brother played them, and females didn't. Instead, we sat around and watched the males play video games, because clearly the video games were very important. Also, my father seemed to like video games more than his children. This may, in fact, still be the case. (Did I mention, issues?)

I have already made excited plans to play Rock Band in Vegas this summer. I am lo-end.

I had Chun King chop suey (or maybe chow mein?) in a can for many, many a childhood dinner. Really two cans, because you got the exciting extra can of crunchy noodles to sprinkle on top.

I think of it as camping food, cause that's the only time we had it. Then came ramen and it became our main camping meal (ramen+froz or dehydrated veggies and tuna.) Mmmm, the taste/smell of bluet. I've made the ramen concotion since, but it isn't the same without the bluet cylinder stink.
