ROFL!  Thanks for getting my day started with a laugh.  I wonder, does perfectly normal beast really require sauce?

Thank you all for enjoying that meal with me. To answer your question Bill, no, but the answer is subjective.

Umami

Umami, a savory taste, is one of the five basic tastes (together with sweetness, sourness, bitterness, and saltiness). A loanword from the Japanese, umami can be translated as "pleasant savory taste". This particular writing was chosen by Professor Kikunae Ikeda from umai "delicious" and mi "taste". The kanji 旨味 are used for a more general sense of a food as delicious.
 
This is my personal view on it. That pork had marinated in a sweet Tariyaki. Seasoned with Pink himalayan sea salt, black tellicherry peppercorn. Blackend seasoning, the sauce added sour. The pricking iron rust added the perfect amount of bitter! Total fireworks!
-Bon Appetit!-

Nope. But an interesting factoid is that my Bama (grandmother) was his cousin.

Heineken keg.

"Old Nr. 7 Brand" is another one lost to the ages.

And, Mutt, Negro Modelo is their best beer, shocked you don't know that! :rolleyes2:

Yuck! I hate dark beer.

I like clear lagers.......

Take that back, I like dos xx lager and Modelo Especial (pilsner). You can keep all other beers. Even most of the free ones.

Mutt, if we ever meet up, I'll be happy to share a lager with you! Seems we have similar taste.

My favourite is Labatt's Blue, and when I'm in the States, I find Samuel Adams lager is pretty good, too. 

Edit: Alpha, can you count?? That's 7 letters!  :lol:

Here's a teaser, especially for Mjolnir. This is a genuine Viking puzzle, its been dated to as early as the 7th century [ thats the 600s, about 1400 years ago.] This one is one of my favourites

There is a special form the Vikings [Norse/Danes] wrote/spoke their puzzles.

Give me a name, name me

The less I am the more men fear me

Name me, give me a name

'colons' :

1. separate

2. but also join together a list.

Hmmm. Colons join, and separate, but the word "colons", doesn't mean either of those things. Right?

What about "arange"? Naw, guess not. This one is haaaard!

Um, please ignore this post. Had to drop an "r", and it still was wrong. 

As they used to say in the Brit comedy series "Brilliant"..."I'll get me coat".
