@ossobuco,
i wouldn't mind trying horse. apparently its nae bad. they say the french eat it. i used to live in france, only spent 4 years there, in my teens, but i'm buggered if i ever saw it. supposedly it's only allowed to be sold by licensed vendors.
i have tried camel though, in a morrocon (morocc..moroco...i'll look it up later Razz ) tagine. it was nice. really nice actually, a bit tough, but a nice strong, gamey taste.

@Berty McJock,
sometimes osso goes drifting away from anything I recognize but eventually she strolls back.

Merry, I used to do Sudokus but once you discover their bases in matrix math, you lose interest. Same things with Crossword puzzles. They are either a clever mining of a theme(then its fun) or its an ego built stack of words that is of interest only to folks whove memorized crossword or jargon dictionaries.

@Lustig Andrei,
You should avoid crossword puzzles Andrei. They work on the same Pavlovian principle as the teaching machine. The rewards, the small glow of satisfaction on solving a clue, are psychological sugar lumps and they condition.

Most compilers remain the same person for years on end and those who solve their puzzles over similar periods of time will have their thought processes brought into congruence with those of the compiler without them being aware of it.

Obviously the effect also works with any regular exposure to the same writers. Comics and cartoons are powerful conditioners because they are at work on minds which are only partially formed.

We see, most of us, thousands of ads every year for a wide range of products and services but the settings for the display have a more or less constant content relating to well-scrubbed, self improving, heterosexual living arrangements. The "good mother" genre. A small number of beer ads are an exception.

I would subscribe to the view that the gun craze in the US, and scientism, is due to comics and cartoons.

It's a very complex subject. Totalitarian governments take great care over such things.

Try doing Killer Sudokus...and then we can discuss "discovering their bases in matrix math." Just put killer Sudokus into your browser search...and do one of the easy ones.

@farmerman,
"Tsoris"!!! I find evolution extremely funny and anybody who takes the subject seriously hilarious.

I don't know about match fixing. It happens. Boys will be boys. I just hope it is rare. If NFL games are on TV in the far east there will be some fixing. It is a problem that nobody knows the answer to. It is so easy to deliberately lose. Especially for a jockey and a QB.

Whatever people say about Lance Armstrong he did not deliberately lose.

People should bear in mind that the horse is a sacred animal in England. Most of us couldn't knowingly eat horsemeat. We would gag.

@Frank Apisa,
trouble with Sudokus is, no matter how difficult, they come from the same linear sources and thats the key. All the rest is just drudgeery.
I saw one that was sorta interesting once, it had as input, only sequences of Fibb series

Try the killers, FM. They truly are addictive...and you will immediately see the difference. The reasoning involved is DIFFERENT.

Give the one for today a shot. It is classified as "Easy."

@spendius,
Lotsa meat in that post.

1You find evolution funny in the same way that you find induction cooking funny. You dont understand it well enough to critique, so you chuckle like a hyena, who can neither fathom the "machinery" or the "drive" (I find you amusing, but only mildly, most of you is a dreadful bore)

2Match fiixing in "Football" is a worldwide scanal. Seems that everyone in Singapore is driving the entire sport for their profit. Looks like your fucked . We have a similar sport, its called "Professional Wrestling" (Except noone in theor stable minds would bet on matches)


3 Lance Armstrong has been decanted with the precipitate


4 and Hindus wont eat cattle. Thats the way of all "Sacred cows " (and now horses I suppose). I could cook a side of chevon and you wouldnt know that it wasnt a roast beef

@farmerman,
The trouble with shite like that is that when you have solved one you have satisfied yourself that you are a clever ******. After a hundred or two you risk becoming convinced that you really are a very clever ****** indeed and it is then a natural logical step to thinking that everybody else is stupid which inevitably leads to imagining that your assertions are scientifically valid on the evidence that a very clever ****** indeed has blurted them.

Once such circular reasoning gets ingrained the very clever ****** indeed soon finds that there is no one else to talk to in a civilised manner except those cowed saps who agree with the assertions and as addicts of the game all have extremely individualised viewpoints caused by them all being very clever fuckers indeed such saps become hard to find and the very clever fuckers indeed are driven in on themselves and it is not long before they come to believe that everything they think is true for every circumstance they give their addled minds to.

That's a pretty good example of what I meant in my last post.

Oh yeah!! And I've never eaten goat in my life.

The reason Hindus won't eat cattle is because they are (or were) dependent on them in much the same way we were once dependent on horse power. And because famines were fairly common in India it was necessary to save the cattle from being eaten. Declaring them sacred was merely the method chosen to prevent them all being consumed in a famine. The necessity pre-dates the belief. That is a procedure which you have not yet come to terms with fm.

If, for example, marriage became profane you wouldn't be long in finding out what the true meaning of profane is. In fact we are at least half way to such a discovery.

That's being extremist, of all the football matches being investigated, no Premiership teams have been found culpable at all.
