Friday Roundup: The “We All Just Pretend To Like Turkey” Edition

domer.mq

It’s not really Friday unless you’re just getting around to reading this on Friday in which case I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving dinner.

Personally, I’m angry with the pilgrims. Why the heck did they start this whole turkey thing? Turkey’s okay, but for my money I’d much rather have a goose. First of all, the meat on a goose is far superior to that of a turkey. And for another thing, have you ever made french fries the day after you make a goose, using the goose-fat for the frying? No? Then you haven’t lived. West coast of Maui, the Grotto on a quiet, snowy night, and goose-fat fries. What do they all have in common? They all make my list of 3 most spiritually awesome experiences ever.

The Roundup:

That’s about it for the short week. This week’s Beer of the Week is Shipyard’s “Imperial Porter.” It’s from Maine. I’ll be in Maine for the holiday visiting family. This beer has 7.1% ABV and Warrior, English Fuggles, and East Kent Goldings Hops. Want.

Fries made with Goose fat. You’re a sick man MQ. But, because I like you I’ll try it. Ohhh, right after I get my picture taken shaking hands with the Pope.

domer, be vary wary of “fortified” beers. They seem like a good idea at the time but they really only every lead to bad things.

We’re all gonna need something stronger than 7.1% after this game.

I agree re: turkey. It’s so overrated. Hell, I’d rather have a Thanksgiving ham. I like all the fixins, but I’m not a fan of the bird.
