Yes that's exactly what I meant by commercially available. I remember listening to a traffic report here once on the radio. They mentioned one accident where a woman collided her car with a deer. Few minutes later the DJ came on the radio asking for people to stop calling, he didn't know if anyone had collected the meat yet.
I know is illegal in some places. In NY they have "fake" deer the cops use to bait hunters to stop and have a pop on the roadside. A guy i met i na place was also a part time deputy (yeah say it like a redneck) who used to do that I knew a guy who ate nothing but venison in west virginia. he had some range up in the hills and hunted with a bow.... bit nuts and spat chewing "tobbace" nice lad though.
I briefly dated a girl from way out in the country back in University. On our first date So where do you go huntin'? Hunting? Like deer? I don't. You do like fishing though? I've done it a few times but not really a hobby of mine either. WHAT DO YOU DO THEN? She seemed confused that I didn't hunt OR fish. It seemed alien to her to date a guy that didn't hunt or fish, men in her community were supposed to do one or the other, or both. We didn't last long, mostly because I got annoyed at her trying to "save me" and she got annoyed I wouldn't become a xian or go to church. She was smoking hot though. Best looking girl I ever dated. ... Unless my wife stumbles upon this post, in which case she was.
I'm sure there are whole communities in your country that would find is strange if you didn't own a gun or your countries flag. We in Britain must be a bizzare country to you lot.
I thought was illegal to hit roadkill and pick it up yourself...but if someone else hits it you an go pick it up?
I have no problem with people hunting for food if available.. shoot what you eat...dress it, hang it...more real than any of us do.. Trophy hunters....can die of ass cancer.
Anyway the kiddie pool was a bit of fun. Put the big kids slide over the side of it and it was carnage. That kept them out of my hair for hours.
Pak Choi in Oyster sauce. Boil the choi first then paint with oyster sauce and grill for 30 secs. yummy
I've never heard that. However, I would stay clear of armadillos if you're ever in the US hunting for roadkill. I'm on the border of armadillos country, not many quite here but go a little south and they quickly become the predominant roadkill you see. They're stupid animals and just wander out in front of cars and then stop waiting to be squished. Most armadillos carry leprosy. Nowhere near as fatal as it once was (antibiotics will wipe it out) but still not something I would want. Not worth the few dollars saved by not paying for chicken at the grocery store.
Pineapple is great grilled on the BBQ, really enhances the flavour/sweetness. Homemade pizza is also really good cooked on a BBQ to give it a smokey flavour. We'll occasionally get some pizza dough and give everyone their own pizza to top. I usually do marinara, potatoes, sausage, grilled peppers, baby bellas, and feta on mine.
We did river tubing today. Sports store was selling the reinforced inner tubes for river tubing for just $13 each today for fathers day, so we picked up 5 and a cooler inner tube and spent some time floating down the Congaree river. (Later found out a swimmer went missing, probably drowned in the river today. I haven't told the Mrs. about that. We saw police helicopters going overhead, didn't know at the time that was why)
I'd say half of Americans have almost no grasp of anything outside their community. Best example is being told by people over here how impressed they are I speak such fluent English. Or the one girl who asked me if I'm Korean when she heard my accent. Yup. Lots of blue eyed Koreans.
