-=> Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

 JW> I am suffering through such a Rube Goldberg mechanism. It is called
 JW> FINTRAC.

 ML> Question here is do you have constitutional protections
 ML> that this silliness violates?

Apparently not.

 ML> Naturally. And what would happen if some criminal buys a
 ML> house? If it's the ill-gotten gains they're worried about,
 ML> just convict them and take the property as restitution.

They are looking for money laundering activities, both proceeds of
crime and terrorist funding.

 JW> Nov: Black Friday/ Four Iconic Malls. Grenades/ Machine guns

 ML> This would require a lot of people, a lot of coordination,
 ML> much procurement

Not really. It's pretty low tech compared to airplane heists.
A paranoid disorganized back country militia could pull it off.

 ML> You know what, I think the net effect on society as a whole
 ML> would be positive. Not in the short run, of course, but the
 ML> death of the mall would not mean the death of commerce.

That's harsh! (And possibly true.)


 ML> I've actually eaten only a few lungs and never actually prepared
 ML> them.

I haven't eaten them or prepared them. I asked Ray to salvage some
caribou or bison lungs once but it was so cold he barely got his
kill gutted and quartered before it froze solid. 

More offal, not bison though...

     Title: Buffalo Sweetbreads With Citrus Blue Cheese
Categories: Veal, Offal, Chilies, Cheese
  Servings: 4

           FOR THE CITRUS BLUE CHEESE:
    1/4 c  blue cheese
    1/4 c  sour cream
      3 TB heavy cream
           zest of one Orange
           zest of one lemon
           FOR THE SWEETBREADS:
  1 1/2    veal sweetbreads
      1 c  all-purpose flour
      1 c  cornstarch
      1 TB smoked paprika
      1 c  Frank's hot sauce
    1/4 c  butter, chilled
      3    scallions, thinly sliced on
           bias

Calf thymus or chicken wing, the buffalo technique is exactly the
same: dredge, deep-fry, cool, drain and toss with buttery hot sauce.

For the citrus blue cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the blue
cheese, heavy cream and sour cream. Mix until incorporated and
season with salt, pepper and the zest of one orange and one lemon.

For the sweetbreads: Clean the sweetbreads of any visible membrane
using your fingers and a sharp knife. Drop them in lightly boiling
water for about a minute, remove and transfer to a bowl of ice water
until cool.

Cut sweetbreads into 2-inch pieces. Mix flour, cornstarch, salt,
pepper and paprika together. Dredge the sweetbreads in the flour and
shake off excess. Fry in a 350-degree fryer until golden brown and
drain on paper towels.

In a small saucepan, heat the hot sauce until it starts to bubble,
then take off heat and whisk in cold butter.

Place sweetbreads in pan and coat with buffalo sauce. Garnish with
thinly sliced scallions, and serve with citrus blue cheese dressing
