I'll see your roast lamb and raise with the best smoked pork loin ever. Had my big birthday bash yesterday afternoon, and the pork loin was to die for. The best part is we had about 10lbs left over; it's sliced & ready for sammiches!
By the way, anybody know which part of the pig the center-cut loin comes from? I know where the loins are, but the pork loin we buy is oval-shaped, of relatively uniform diameter, and about three feet long; I don't know porcine anatomy very well, but I just can't figure out where a chunk of nearly all meat of that shape might come from.

Hah. I didn't know Canada had a decent enough rugby team to be shown on TV. The more you know.

Good enough to go up against New Zealand in the beginning games of the world cup even. They lost, but still.

Head cold is kicking my ass. Stayed home today, made soup and biscuits. Sitting under a couple of blankets, dogs on me, watching B movies. Glad it isn't the flu.
My sport seat frames still aren't welded up either.

Loin is along the spine. Best piece in any animal.

If you watch the Modern Marvels show on lunch meat, you won't eat much of anything anymore.

Starting today my work hours changed form 6:30-4:00 to 7:00-4:30 so I'm sitting here trying to pick up the pieces of my broken, shattered life.

My hands have an extra type of grippyness due to taking inventory of tires. Could come in handy later.

Especially bacon. I really just don't like it anymore. Used to love bacon and all that, but I have, ehh, lost the taste for it?
Guess that's what I get for dating Middle Eastern girls.

Reminds me of a story...
There was this guy from the US who was visiting Australia, traveling by bicycle across the interior of the country. As he traveled, he heard rumor of a clan of sheep ranchers that, um, really liked their sheep, especially the ewes, and weren't at all ashamed of it. So as he rode, he kept an eye out for this outfit, and was pleasantly surprised when he happened upon their ranch toward the end of a day's ride, just before sunset.
He stopped, made small talk with them for a bit, and finally got up the nerve to ask them about their proclivities... "I've heard that you fellas enjoy having sex with your sheep." "That's quite right, mate," said the eldest of the clan. "They're really quite good. Best part is they don't expect much in the way of foreplay, nor afterglow either!" The others in the group laughed it up & slapped the old timer on the back. They then went on and on in great detail about the finer points of making love to a sheep; it was obvious that they were very familiar with their flock! Finally the old guy asked the stranger if he'd like to have a go at one.
"Well, I guess just once wouldn't hurt anything," he said. "You guys do it all the time, so it must be safe and all... Sure! I'll do it!" They all cheered and escorted him to the gate, and encouraged him to have a good time. "Just pick the one that looks good to you, and she'll treat you right!"
He was thankful for some moonlight as he strolled through the flock, picking his 'partner'. He finally settled on one, stripped down a bit and went to work. And oh, the time he had. He never dreamed it could be that good! After a good long while though he had had enough, so he cleaned himself up & returned to the gate. As he walked through to the yard though, he heard the group of sheepherders laughing uncontrollably, pointing at him and toward the flock. Furious, he stormed up to the group and demanded, "What's so funny?! You all said you do it all the time!"
When the old guy finally regained his composure and said, "Yeah, that's right; we do! But you went and picked the ugliest one of the bunch!"

Pelican parts are officially the worst international shippers of car parts, in the history of the world. My first order - 2 months to get to me. TWO MONTHS for a set of headlight wiper blades. Now, it's been just under 2 months for the little bracket that holds the medikit in. rage.
In other news, greek marinated pork backstraps are the greatest most delicious meat in the history of the world.

Just sat through 1 hour and 23 minutes of required (yes it's required, dammit!) annual CGMP training. Crazy QA Lady is certifiably crazy. Seriously.
She was successful in keeping us awake through her presentation, in spite of the lunch that was served. But still...
