There may be no sadder words in the English language than "reconstituted cod."

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Take care of yourself, Vortex. At the least, treat the psychic shock. And RIP, little car.

I praise the company of Saab and their Vortex saving ways.
My college roommate's sister was killed when she was t-boned in an intersection. Nice to know some carmakers were obsessed with saving the humans inside them.
I would rather eat lamb than reconstituted cod.

Hey, Happy Birthday, David! May there be no reconstituted cod at all.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I will go on record as saying that both the lamb and the potatoes were delicious. (As were the pumpkin and sweet potato.) Ryan enjoyed the lamb too. My son!

Thanks for birthday wishes!

Using my imperial birthday fiat, I declare today to be Reconstituted Cod-less Day!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy birthday, Hec!
Rick, I like that story! Especially since my food motto is, Why have anything else when you can have steak?

Vortex, I hope you slept well and aren't in too much pain today.
Using my imperial birthday fiat, I declare today to be Reconstituted Cod-less Day!
Happy Birthday Hec!!!
My family gave up making baccala (aka reconstituted cod) for Christmas Eve before I was born, but it was a tradition in Italy. They were from a mountainous area, and it was probably one of the few ways they could have the traditional Christmas Eve fish dinner.
