On Overcooked Tuna and Vicious Dog Attacks

Jun 23, 2006 10:38

I over-marinated the tuna. I wound up letting sit in the marinade for two days, because I kept having to eat out. By the time I cooked it, the tuna was too salty thanks to the soy marinate. Oh well. It was still pretty good ( Read more... )

Drilling. For some reason, your description made me think of a man lightly covered in saw dust running up behind the dog and probing it, increasing both the hilariousness and the disgusting-ness of your account. Surely my imagination is at fault, not yours.

Completely unrelated note: Doesn't Diane Rehm's voice grate on your nerves?
She makes me nutters.
I just want to shake her.

Weirdly, I find it kind of soothing. Like a really old aunt. Even thought I don't have any really old aunts. Hmm. Relatedly, I was facinated to find out that she isn't that old, she apparently has some kind of throat condition that makes her sound like she used to make a practice of gargleing glass.

Ignore the comma splice.

I know someone with an unusual throat condition who talks similarly, but the sounds seem to translate differently over radio. I forgot to mention that, despite her voice, I think her show's pretty good.

I think people who intentionally train their dogs to be vicious should be tortured for days before being killed in some horrible way. Too often in those cases, it's the dog that pays the ultimate price. Pits have an awful name because they happen to be of the breed most often trained in this way.

I really would love to have a job where I got paid to murder those people. No. Kill. Murder wouldn't be the proper term, because it would be entirely justifiable homicide.

I, too, disagree with the common law of destroying an animal when it attacks a human. But just on a matter of consistency, they're letting this berzerker off because it nearly killed another animal as well? Do these lawgivers only punish animals that pre-meditate their attacks, or do they just forgive distracted mauling, since the poor beast was so intent on mauling another dog that it couldn't tell man-thumb from dog-paw? For thirty minutes?!

Anyway, that's fucking insane. And yes, darkly hilarious. I wonder what part of the attack dog was drilled, how deep, and with what kind of bit?
