I think you definitely belong in Texas. Reminds me of the time I came home late one night hungry as a hound and spotted a glass bowl in the fridge with what appeared to be Libby's corned beef and hash. Made my self a sandwich, woofed it down and decided it was so good that I made another and emptied the bowl. The next morning, my ex-wife, went to feed Lucky our dog and asked what happened to the bowl of Kennel Ration she had put in the fridge. Obviously, Lucky was out of luck that day and I haven't been able to walk past a fire hydrant to this day. Chris… I think you definitely belong in Texas.

An accompanying note read: "We wanted each meal for you to be a surprise so we removed the labels". Months later they disclosed to them that a few of the cans were actually dog food...

]]> Comment on Do you know where Bockwurst comes from? by Chris Cane http://www.cane.com/index.php/2010/02/do-you-know-where-bockwurst-comes-from/comment-page-1/#comment-300 Chris Cane Fri, 27 May 2011 10:40:49 +0000 http://www.cane.com/?p=791#comment-300 Found an interesting read at http://jewlib.www.jewlib.freebase.com/view/en/bockwurst where it says "Bockwurst is a kind of German sausage invented in 1889 by restaurant owner R. Scholtz of Berlin. It is one of the most popular varieties within Germany, and can be found abroad. The sausage is traditionally made from ground veal and pork (tending more towards veal, unlike bratwurst). In modern Germany, however, it is made from different types of ground meat, such as pork, lamb, turkey, chicken and in rare cases even from horse meat. In Northern Germany there is also a version of bockwurst which is made from fish. Bockwurst is flavored with salt, white pepper and paprika. Other spices, such as chives and parsley, are often also added and in Germany itself bockwurst is often smoked as well. Bockwurst was originally eaten with bock beer and it is usually served with mustard. A natural casing sausage, it is usually cooked by simmering although it may also be grilled" Found an interesting read at http://jewlib.www.jewlib.freebase.com/view/en/bockwurst where it says “Bockwurst is a kind of German sausage invented in 1889 by restaurant owner R.

Scholtz of Berlin." Your answer does agree with an email I received from Jeannette Jacobs of Meica in Germany saying "Legend has it that the bockwurst originated in Einbeck, Lower Saxony, because the famous local “Ainpockisch Beer“ was often served with a tender, juicy boiled sausage – a bockwurst! Meica’s Bockwurst is available in a natural casing that has a nice bite to it. Meica’s Saftbockwurst, on the other hand, comes without casing – skinless." I'm guessing that your research is coming close to the facts. Well done! Hi Michael,

Bockwurst is called like that, because this "Wurst" was accompanied by "Bockbier", a very strong type of beer, which was first brewed in the northern German Town of "Einbeck". The bavarian Kings liked the northern German beer from the town of Einbeck very much, so the master brewer from Einbeck was asked to do his magic at some of the bavarian castles (around 1550) and he brought of course his beer with him. He called it "Ainpöckisch" beer, which means something like "beer from Einbeck". The bavarian dialekt formed this word "Ainpöckisch" over the decades to "Bock", so "Bock" is referring to beer, that originated around the 1500s in the town of Einbeck. That's it :) Ok, here you go:

]]> Comment on Sex scene from a romance novel ? by Ben Philipson http://www.cane.com/index.php/2010/12/sex-scene-from-a-romance-novel/comment-page-1/#comment-88 Ben Philipson Wed, 22 Dec 2010 13:22:12 +0000 http://www.cane.com/?p=1480#comment-88 According to my experience they always start at the upper part of the body and work down. Now you ask where my experience is coming from? Do I look that suspicious? Do they think that I am a terrorist? When arriving at any airport security check in the USA my boarding pass ALWAYS shows somewhere at the bottom "SSS" meaning that I have been "randomly" selected for an additional security check, at least according to the TSA people when asked. You want to know why this happens to me each and every time? When I fly to the USA my trip always starts in Israel....hence the "random" security check.
