Bug guts tastefully presented with lime wedges! Which makes it OK...

Business travels have provided me with some really interesting food options.  In this category, it would probably be some sort of sheep soup with eyeballs, and also a plate of chicken feet.  Most weird that I didn't eat was Soft-Boiled Fetal Duck that I was offered in Asia (no thanks).

Most gross tasting was boiled beef tripe in Italy (straight up, "senza niente"). Smell alone made me want to up-chuck in the company cafe.

I live in MN and have been to a lot of different restaurants. The only one I've been to that serves lamb is a Greek restaurant in Blaine.

Drugs are bad. M'kay.
 
I change my swing every time I don't shoot par for the course.

Lamb and buffalo burgers as weird?

I guess it depends on what you classify as weird but wildebeest, kudu, octopus, ostrich, kangaroo pizza, goose, sea urchin, conger eel...

Plus pretty much every course that I had when I dined here:

At a wild game night once at a local tavern, I ate bear and rabbit.  Both were OK, but no something I'd go out of my way to have again.

Deep fried goats eyes.  The insided is sucked out with a wooden straw, they are then breaded and deep fried.  Like many have had calamari and rocky mountain oysters, escargo. I am reminded about the occasional articles about insect parts in candy bars etc. Does that count?

I spent a couple years in Thailand and I ate some kind of weird stuff there. Dog is completely acceptable to eat over there and actually tastes pretty good. Of course I had the fried insects - scorpion, grasshoppers, worms, etc. I actually enjoyed the fermented fish (plaa raa) they put in the food in the eastern part of the country. We had grilled field mice on a skewer and some boiled blood soup stuff, it looks like really dark red jello. I figured I would try everything once, and ended up liking a lot of it!!

Here in Arizona they have cow tongue tacos and tacos de cabeza (head meat tacos) at the more "authentic" restaurants. I enjoy trying different types of food. My mom always told me, "don't knock it 'til ya tried it!"

Forgot the duck tongue.  Not a full-on embryo, but it was all leathery like french kissing a.....well...a duck.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
