I feel the earth move, under my feet - Page 2

I was in a meeting (yay) at my office in Mountain View and we felt on medium jolt and then nothing else. Now I'm home and there is apparently no damage and the cats aren't noticeably more (or less) psycho than usual.

Sure, presumably if you're going to eat it, you'd prefer it taste good.

That said, I'm not all that ugged out. If it weren't complete social taboo, and if it could be acquired ethically, and I'd if it weren't for an extremely heightened risk of food-borne illness, I'd be willing to try haunch o' human.

Placenta would fall into that realm of meat products I don't expect to be very pleasant but there's only one way to know.

What do you think of when you hear "Los Banos?"

Exactly what you'd think I'd think.

And whenever I hear "Pico Rivera" I picture some short Latino kid following Geraldo around.

I won't be eating my placenta but I wouldn't begrudge anyone who did. Seriously.

I spent 9 months making a steak...why not get some nutrition out of it?

Ok, it's not really a steak. In fact, they say it doesn't taste good at all and needs some serious processing to get it palatable. However, if it were tasty, I'd be oddly tempted. A rare treat, eh?

Earthquake to Placenta eating in nothing flat.

Glad to hear it wasn't too big a quake...

(BTW I thought quake weather was hazy...)

That's only in LA, but that's only because it's ALWAYS hazy. It's like saying the sun rising causes earthquakes since, afterall, every time there's been an earthquake, the sun had risen something within 24hrs preceding it.

I could maybe see eating your own, but I don't think I could eat someone else's. Maybe if it were my girlfriend but even then... I think it would be a little wierd.

Then again, when faced with it for real, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal. Hard to say. For now? Wierd.

Placenta: it's what's for dinner.
