@Linkat,

This so-called mystery is a no-brainer.

Any suggestion of the missing Texan brains being quite valuable stems from the mistaken belief that they were almost brand new.

What is most jarring about the incident is the trite misapprehension of felonious intent which just wont hold water.

Off the top of my head I have a good mind to wander about what else is going off there.

Fresh brains are definitely better. Everybody knows that.

Wasn't me.

I did eat a Gnome the other day in World of Warcraft though. Cool

@roger,

I've eaten plenty of brawn in my time, which is pigs head, with or without brain in a sort of aspic jelly. It's quite safe to eat and there are no side effects.

It's quite tasty in a sandwich with a dollop of mustard.

It was around that time I developed a regular hankering for acorns and truffles.

@Lordyaswas,

The hankering went away after the Doc prescribed some oinkment.

Maybe I'll just have extra tofu with my sprouts.

@Linkat,

Did anyone notice that all these brains were from Texas State Lunatic Asylum? Adds a whole new dimension to why these were stolen.

Maybe another Young Frankenstein wannabe? Think Abby Normal.

I even noticed that they weren't stolen.
