======================
Howdy Michael!

-> There's probably some unpleasant replacement somewhere.
-> I am irritated when fiends (whoops) and restaurant owners
-> assume that just because you like something hotter than
-> they can take, you either don't like it (the normal
-> response) or want food to be infinitely hot (the challenge
-> response). I went to the Bullfrog with some of the Lamades
-> the other day, and as Mike got wings with some hot- but
-> pleasant-sounding name, I got the next one up on the list,
-> which was the hottest, with a name like nuclear waste or
-> something like that. Mike's were sticky sweet, so I'm glad
-> I didn't get that, but mine were sauced in just plain
-> Tabasco or equivalent and then sprinkled with Italian-style
-> crushed peppers, not the normal ones that you used to get
-> that ran 5 to 10 K units but the hopped up stuff that runs
-> in the 30s. The wings were number one, really, really sour,
-> and two, borderline too hot. Oh, yes, there was a gratuitous
-> sprinkle of Italian seasoning, so they tasted bad as well.
-> Luckily, they were pouring a smoked Kolsch-style beer that
-> was intriguing, provided a touch of smokiness in the mouth,
-> and made the meal almost edible. If these wings had had a
-> nice buttery sauce, the borderline too hot would have been
-> not unpleasant. Ah, well, I should have had a burger,
-> telling them to hold the bun - lately, I have been dually
-> wanting sugars and having my stomach turn at starches.
-> Quite peculiar.
->
I like dishes to taste good to eat..not 
"spiked" like that...I like buffalo wings 
with tabasco based sauces, and I don't mind
them with hotter sauces if they are not nasty
tasting as well. Yours just sound nasty...so
I imagine they tasted even worse.
 
->  HN> You are indeed more fond of durian than
->  HN> Anne or me!
-> 
-> I am almost fond enough of durian to be an Asian!
->
A fact that will ruin your viking 
heritage standing in a big way (grin).
 
->  HN> I have had "green jackfruit drink", but 
->  HN> did not note that it was "durian-ish".
-> 
-> That's because "green jackfruit drink" has as much to do
-> with jackfruit as Coca-Cola has to do with coca tea.
-> Actually, it's only the fancier jackfruits on their
-> native soil that appear to have a touch of durianosity,
-> and only if they are specially good. Interestingly, in
-> the context of jackfruit, I found it fetid and unpleasant.
-> 
->  HN> Anne came to the ballpark yesterday! 
->  HN> She did well, felt good and enjoyed
->  HN> being at the ballpark, in spite of the
->  HN> poor showing by the M's against the 
->  HN> Oreo's...we lost 4-2...and the slide
->  HN> continues!
-> 
-> Pretty sad having both our teams fall (the Sox most
-> humiliatingly) to the lowly As. Being beaten by the
-> relatively mighty this year Os isn't so disgraceful,
-> just disappointing.
-> 
We just took 3 out of 4 from the Royals
and are in extra innings with the Tampa
bay Rays...silly of em to get rid of the
"devil"....
but we are so far in the cellar we have to
get videos of sunrises!
chat with you soon!
