I only eat oysters that are cooked in some way - after a horrendo experience with raw ones at Mismaloya Beach years ago.

Anyway, the Bitten blog has an article and then comments and recommendations from readers for Oyster Loaf..
Here

Shit, now I just wanna put on proper clothes and go the seafood restaurant by the capitol and see what they've got on the half shell -- some tasty bites shipped in from New Zealand or BC, usually. Mmmmmm..........

Here . . . don't be shellfish . . . pass some of that over here . . . what's the name of this plaice? Do they serve sole food? Oooo . . . something sure smelt good. Do they have scallop potatoes? Don't clam up . . . tell me about the specials.

Don't bother with the specials. You're best off getting a dozen on the half shell and a couple of gin and tonics, then head over to L'Etoile for some tawny port and the cheese plate.

I think you mean you can sea that sub-till humor is wasted, but you're too tongue-tide to type proper-like.

you can always tell when a thread needs to be quietly put down. Its when the puns begin .Either that, or else the participants begin comparing the thread monitor with Hitler.

I'm not sure how I feel about the vivid image I now have in my mind of Hitler and Eva Braun (and dogs) naked and slathered in pickled cabbage...

I think s/he's tryagain.
Whatever - solipsister is funny as hell. I think the best read on a2k. Did you see how solipsister suggested helping a woman put on her coat?
Look it up. I was laughing for ten minutes and then periodically throughout the day every time I thought of it again.

I agree, Steven Wright is hilarious, but hell shouldn't be all that funny to a Christian, should it, Aidan? Smile

I don't really believe in hell - (Frank told me I'm not a real christian anyway - so I'm off that particularly unpleasant hook).

As for oysters - I believe in them- especially po' boys.

ANGELS ON HORSEBACK

Wrap 2 zalt oysters ina very thin slice of cappacolla or priosciutto

Before wrapping, cover the oysters with some chopped onion and fresh chopped parsley.

Put under a broiler for about 3 minutes (watch so they dont burn)

Put 2 packets on a slice of buttered toast and then drizzle with hollandaise.

This is excellent as a Sunday brekfast served with scambly eggs on the side or 2 poached eggs on another piece of toast and drizzled with hollandaise (sort of a po mans eggs benedict)

It was a brave man who first swallowed an oyster.
