Wait until Andy finds out what calamari really is. First time I had any was in Taipei, Taiwan. It wasn’t good,IMO. It was tough and rubbery. The more I chewed the longer it lasted. I think they gave me rubber bands. What did I know, I was just a 19 yr old Marine trying to be cool.
No no; it was Ringo who longed to be an Octopus; Paul was a Walrus [according to The Onion Satire Paper] with little experience. George, however, was an adopted Krishacean; John himself was a Beetle found in a Quarry.
Chalkiej’s post of that hilarious Don Martin cartoon reminds me that Number Six “owes” his fellow Cappers his Andy done in Don Martin’s style. (A little “hint hint” to Number Six, lol.)

Well, the one on dialysis had a good Mothers day and I can pretty much figure that the other one is struggling. I wanted to email Uncle Bob but it wouldn’t be “happy Mothers day”. I couldn’t think of what to say and so will wait for an update and explain myself then. Sunday was good and today I was outside a good deal weeding and mowing around the garden and house. I left more stuff around front than I usually do since I see that the rabbit likes it. He/she tolerates a close proximity, but not too close. Dropped a bunch of punched propane cans and did some shopping and got gas. I will be setting up the garden this week. . Number Six said, about 10 pints ago
The manageress of my local isn’t too pleased with me. A pint of my usual is £1.99 and I paid with 199 pennies!
Aah… the dark days before payday when couch cushions and pockets are turned up and out, respectively.. Nice kwik “draw” there, Mikey. .Your local needs one of those coin counter machines like they have at the bank, Six.. Chalkie j said, about 2 many repeats ago

It started to at first, but now it comes round like an old friend who’s got time for a pint and is buying. ;) .The #6 is sweeping the ocean, right after the mudshark did.

@ Granny “Goat Roper” DeanBob Wills too easy? I gravitate to the Ramones but what about some Disco with eldo’s motif of Doing It To Death ?UH!Fred; FRED!!
I wish I could say something other than ‘Sorry to hear that’ all the time but I don’t know what else to say. You know that I wish them both the best of the best.
The rabbit sounds cute!
I hope your garden turns out nice in the end… With you doing it then it will.

That Don Martin replay looks like something I may have read the first time around. When did it come out ?.Not to fear, John. You’ve reached your state of “cool” without having to do stunts…. like me ! .I wonder if Chawkee has tried looking through a Green Onion ? Pretty O-PAYKE stuff !.Maybe Linda can teach this non dancer some moves when we eventually meet ???
@ GweedoFor all my watching Dancing with the Stars, I dont do much fancy stuff…two stepping, (with a few neat spins and turns I learned over the years) waltzing, and rocking are my main stays…and yes, grannies can still shake their tail feathers even at 60!
frankly, I have enjoyed snails, and calamari but only in So. Calif. Do NOT try them inland, but then its your tummy that will have to endure it…so who am I to speak of its detriments….personally, I am going for a couple of days of Wall Eye fishing…Mille Lacs is calling my name…later this week…
How is it, Gweedo, that when you reach a certain age, and high level of coolness, that your kids and grandkids just don’t get it? Cool is cool, no matter how you shape it.
Gweedo, its almost time for blankies and goose down comforters, do you plan on hogging them or just waiting till I start snoring to flip them over yourself and drift off to warmy dreamland?…hmmph, best post those intentions…or the snores….lol…..willl check to see if aught else needs your touch/posts in a bit, but bedtime is coming soon…its a lazy sunday and you know how they are…

Well prepared calamari, or squid if you will, is not tough or rubbery. If it is, it is simply overcooked. Octopus is delicious too!

Agree, squid is fantastic when prepared properly. Lived in Phan Thiet, Vietnam for a few years where the squid were sundried; wonderful!
