    They were a basic sausage/beef meatloaf then wrapped in bacon.  These were a trial run, will be doing them in the future with better seasoning.  Probably basically take everything I would put on a kabob, grind it up, wrap in bacon, cook and finish with a nice glaze.  I cooked at 300 till done, next time will do 350 to get crispier bacon.

    By the Darwin Principle, are we just breeding smarter and smarter swine?
    Sort of. Any genetic variability that leads to better ability to compete gives that 'version' of the species a better chance at survival, assuming there is pressure on the species. The easier life is for everyone, the less of an impact on this there is. Genetic variation that makes the species weaker (weaker versions) get culled more quickly when there is survival pressure.

    Hogs' ability to reproduce and forage just about anything are their superpowers and negates most any threat.  Lots of reproduction creates more genetic variability, good and bad, but when the hogs are winning, the dummies aren't getting culled quickly enough, so some smarter, some dumber.  They aren't dumb, so they figure **** out and others can learn.

    Same thing happens with viruses.

    Those new ultra-low-budget Porta-Potties scare me a bit, and may cut food festival attendance overall.

    When I lived in Japan, it was pretty common to see someone just weeing off the sidewalk. Maybe they are giving the full Asian experience?  (Been 30 years, so maybe it has changed)

    Like I said, that was 30 years ago.  Back before they had bilingual signs, internet, etc.

    I also wouldn’t say it was common place in the sense everyone did it, but saw it many many times over the years.

    You want some interesting reading, look into public toilets in Japan and their relatively new obsession with toilets.

    I was there when public restrooms were “squat-e-motos” … basically picture a urinal laid on the ground.  No sitting, you squatted.

    I have seen similar public restrooms in various countries around the world.  I’m not sure why a “squat-e-moto” would make one want to just whip out their hog in public in the street, but maybe there’s an aspect of Asian culture I just don’t understand.

    Finally swapped the busted firebox in the KJ Jr. it’s only been 5-6 years that I’ve had the replacement sitting on the shelf. 

    Thinking about clean burning and selling it and the PK.

    I've been to both recently as well as SF and I would say the narrative on both sides is correct, depending on where you go in these cities.  You could easily be two blocks from a completely different environment. I'm not sure there are big cities that don't have that. I've put my eyes on the good and bad in Denver and Houston, very similar. Austin is the same.

    I happened to watch the documentary titled “Meth Storm” last week.  It focuses on rural Arkansas.  It’s awfully bleak.

    Yeah I’ve never seen anything like that there, certainly not commonplace.
    Like I said, that was 30 years ago.  Back before they had bilingual signs, internet, etc.

    I also wouldn’t say it was common place in the sense everyone did it, but saw it many many times over the years.

    You want some interesting reading, look into public toilets in Japan and their relatively new obsession with toilets.

    I was there when public restrooms were “squat-e-motos” … basically picture a urinal laid on the ground.  No sitting, you squatted.
    I have seen similar public restrooms in various countries around the world.  I’m not sure why a “squat-e-moto” would make one want to just whip out their hog in public in the street, but maybe there’s an aspect of Asian culture I just don’t understand.

    I don't know, he must be making it all up, probably never lived there.
    lol, I don’t think Ozzie is making anything up. That is more of a “huh that’s interesting” comment from me than anything else.

    Cool your heels, Dorothy.
    I’ll be visiting Seattle and Portland very soon, I’ll let you know how interesting it’s is…
    I've been to both recently as well as SF and I would say the narrative on both sides is correct, depending on where you go in these cities.  You could easily be two blocks from a completely different environment. I'm not sure there are big cities that don't have that. I've put my eyes on the good and bad in Denver and Houston, very similar. Austin is the same.
    I would add that small town America is not immune. Meth use and homelessness are very prevalent there as well. It’s just easier for people to see when it’s on a sidewalk of a major city. 
    We have a massive unhomed issue in my town.  Certain streets you drive down and they are lined with the unhoused.  After big rain storms you will see tents and debris all down the washes from where their camps are washed away.

    At the airport.  I’m nominally flying to Vancouver today but the flights are all messed up.  I think it’s going to be a very long day.
