belfastguzzi Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Re offer to bring Mike Wilson some sprouts from Brussels. Sorry. I was served some sprouts but I ate them, so you probably wouldn't want them at this stage. When out eating, I was tempted to have horse, but out of consideration for the vegaterian sitting beside me, I went for something smaller, a bunny rabbit, hoping that she wouldn't notice. I could have inadvertantly ended up with vegatarian, mind you, as I think that I requested La Pain instead of Lapin. Thankfully, the eatery seemed to understand that I didn't have bread in mind. What else do they eat there? Oh yeah... eels. Yesterday I had a good serving of raw minced beef. Anyway – traffic. It's murder. Seems hilarious to me that at the heart of Eurobeaurocracy is some of the worst driving in the world. Where do you drive? Oh, anywhere. It was not unusual to find traffic going in opposite directions on the same side of the road. Not many white lines. Lots of holes and road deconstruction. No doubt some perceived chaos was due to the mysteries of Prioritie a Droite – and a misappreciation of the supernatural powers of mental telepathy that Belgian drivers have. ? Link to comment

belfastguzzi Posted March 5, 2007 Author Share Posted March 5, 2007 they call it "filet américain" because they like to think that it is made from minced Americanos? Link to comment

jihem Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 because they like to think that it is made from minced Americanos? is there such a thing ? (cliché) Link to comment
mike wilson Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 You are mistaking "minced" with "mincing". Not the same thing at all, especially to cowboys and other butch folk, such as linemen, marines, native americans and so forth. Uncooked meat is not something I would go out of my way for. The rarest thing I have eaten is European Bison. Doesn't taste like chicken. Link to comment
antonio carroccio Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Nothing wrong with “European Bison” It is matter of fact, the well tasting mozzarella use to be produced with Latte di bufala romana. Link to comment
mike wilson Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 That's Buffalo. I'm talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisent Link to comment
belfastguzzi Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 That's Buffalo. I'm talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisent I could eat one of those. Maybe two. Preferably cooked. You are mistaking "minced" with "mincing". Not the same thing at all, especially to cowboys and other butch folk, such as linemen, marines, native americans and so forth. Seems to be the same mistake as folk make when not differentiating between Tenni Guys and Scura Men. That's Buffalo. I'm talking about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisent Ditto You are mistaking "minced" with "mincing". Not the same thing at all... Actually, on reconsideration, it's only a difference in tense Mincing Americans ––––> Minced Americans Same thing, different time Link to comment

mike wilson Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Are you sure you're in Belgium Who needs scriptwriters when there's stuff like that to work with? Wonder if Dubya plays the same game. Seems to be the same mistake as folk make when not differentiating between Tenni Guys and Scura Men. Wouldn't know. I'm a bit of a small block, myself. Link to comment
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Are you sure you're in Belgium He is accused of stealing two sets of bras, knickers, suspender belts and stockings from the shop on Lisburn Road I thought the raw meat was bad enough!! Whatever could Belfast be up to now? Perhaps he is merely preparing for a trip to Australia ... Link to comment
belfastguzzi Posted March 7, 2007 Author Share Posted March 7, 2007 Are you sure you're in Belgium "Mr Boyd is accused of stealing bras, knickers and stockings" How funny. My passport and driving licence do indeed say Robert Boyd. I must have been sleep walking. Wouldn't know. I'm a bit of a small block, myself. And last I heard, it wasn't firing. bras, knickers and stockings Perhaps he is merely preparing for a trip to Australia ... You've seen John O'Sullivan's holiday snaps too? Link to comment
