Jerky?

... is dried meat in a sealed packet ready to eat.

Does it taste like it sounds?

It tastes 'Salty and Hard'.

LOL  :)  ... HVAC will get a laugh from that.

You mean it tastes like "dick"? {Not that I would know
how those taste ;.>}

Nar, it's just salty, hard, beef jerky.

Some souvenir shops sell it here in New Zealand.

I'd rather take two more post-cards with stamps :>

Or a date with the souvenir shop lady.

You mean "fish & chips"?  :-)

Heh.

Well, actually, humans have been eating old salted meat or dried meat
for thousands of years.

There are those of us who prefer fruit and nuts :-)
.. and a bloody steak now and then ;>

Lovely.

I've been thinking about that history a lot recently too.

Seems that you think too much.

It's just because of the internet.

I mean, in World War 1,
people just had propaganda, fear, and orders.
There was no time to think.

i.e.
If many different species of extraterrestrials are real, did they all
have to go through the experience of living in mud huts, eating dried
goat meat, but thirsty, with a friend beside slowly dying of a bad
tooth ache, and the threat of marauding goat skin covered humanoids
running over the hill any day to chop up everyone except the raped
women.

Not to my knowledge ;->
C.

Come on, surely, many intelligent life forms have had to do it all the
hard way.

OK, Ok, ok, "not to your knowledge".

Anyway, I'm going to go and watch TV.

http://home.nzcity.co.nz/tvnow/tvguide.aspx


Penn & Teller: Bullshit! (AO) (10:30pm)
Gun Control.

or ...

The Daily Show (AO) (10:00pm)

Then ...

The Late Show With David Letterman (PGR) (11:00pm)

or ...

Battlestar Galactica (PGR) (11:17pm)

What the heck is that doing there ?
I've never seen that on TV at late night before.
Well, I won't watch it.
The old one is too old, and the new version is utter garbage.

or ...
 
11:30pm   The Osbournes (11:35pm)
   
That's funny sometimes.
It's kind of peaceful to watch too.

then ...

BBC World (12:25am)

... then sleep for 4 - 5 hours, wake up, read ... http://cryptome.org
... and check newsgroups, and The Disclosure Project, and other
interesting websites.

P.S.
Have a great day !

Here's a nice picture for you ........
