Sounds like my cue to repost my favorite short poem by that Crazy Cloud, Ikkyu. This is at least the third time I've put it on this forum, too.
A Meal of Fresh Octopus
Lots of arms, just like Kannon the Goddess;
Sacrificed for me, garnished with citron, I revere it so!
The taste of the sea, just divine!
Sorry, Buddha, this is another precept I just cannot keep.

I'm honored Serpent
I'm honored that anyone would spend their time to compose a rap in my honor (never mind the minute I lost, how about the minutes you lost composing that?) Nevertheless, I'd be much happier about this poem if you were, say, a got qi girl.

Gene,
We actually have some decent sea food here in Denver (but you have to pay). Two of the sushi restaurants I go to fly there fish in almost Daily.
I'd have to agree, I eat poultry maybe once a week (for protien and minerals) other than that, it is seafood that keeps me from being veg (don't eat red meat or pork).
Speaking of which, I'm going to go get a ahi sammich.

Truely it was the Joys of Sushi that pulled away from about 6 years of Vegitarianism...
Still not into Poltry (except eggs) and haven't touched 4 legged meat in like 10 years... don't even miss it...

thanks for the hints on Smoked Salmon, but the question is if you can fit a fillet into a water pipe?

I AM SO IN LOVE WITH SUSHI!

Next time I'm in that area of Cali I'll get a hold of you all, we'll go to sushi.

I confess
I used to be into stunt foods - it's a Chinese thang - stuff like scorpions, sea slugs, snakes, lizards, real exotic meats like on our two new dvds eating the uneatable and inedible delicacies. But my last trip to China, I was travelling with some people who just turned me complete off of stunt foods. They had this turtle killed, just for the novelty, and only took a few bites, then charged the vegetarian at the table full price (it was really expensive.) At that point, I became disgusted by the whole affair (but I still might eat scorpions.)
Sushi is cool, but few people have ths stomach for the hardcore sushi, the really live stuff where the fish is still flipping under the filet knife. Most of us are just nibblers when it comes to sushi.

squid spaghetti
as a side note, when I visited Seoul with Steve-O, there was a supermarket next to the yeoguan (cheap hotel) serving squid pulled live from the tank, innards removed and the remainder passed through a slitter, producing still-squirming squid spaghetti people just ate raw, squirming and on the spot. that's hardcore sushi. I'd settle for a good chunk of hamachi:p

i have got a personal question for all the guys on here.
My friend just went through this break up. Well...technically it wasn't a break up...more like....no contact. Why would a guy tell a girl that he is falling in love with her....and then the next day...week...month....not call at all. Not return any calls at all. Why would a guy do that? Is it possible to lose interest that fast? Or is it possible he was only after one thing?
My girlfriend and I had this conversation last night..talking about guys that do that. We kept asking why...and what could possibly be the reason why they would do it. We came up with a few of our own...but guys think differently than girls. So I am asking on a personal....honest....question.
-
It is regretably definitely possible that he was just saying whatever he could think of to get in her pants. It is also possible (although a bit less likely) that he got real scared of intimacy - emotional, not physical - real fast. I'm not proud to say I've been guilty of both reactions, although never to such an extreme degree.
-
The scared part though....why if a guy wanted to express his feelings...yet....he avoids you? You would think that he would feel better being with the one he is starting to care for, rather than being alone. Or maybe he is not neccasarily alone...but sleeping with other women to get his mind off of it. Would that be possible?
