MR:
1+2. Thanks. I have seen excellent stuff from you too. I just hate doing bad graphics and I don't care if there are 1 or 10.000 readers out there.
3. I enjoy drawing. Fill your life with what you like, eeeh? I recently got myself a USB pen tablet. Oh, man, no more mouse-shit. It rocks. It's fast. Just like supersonic herrings, exactly the opposite of the Apo Army. Woohoooo!
4. Yes, the fireplace is busy this time a year. But hey, skating is fun!
5. Early fluid abuse, ehhh. THAT explains a LOT!
6. Our most preciousss opponents. The next version will contain a lot more than you 3 stooges. The world need to know about your evil Kamp(f)...

Kernul:
We'll deal with your AHMS later. You might NOT be surprised to know that we call it the AAHMS (and later the omni-AA-systems)

BayB Sue:
Yupp, that's us.

This picture perfectly illustrates what great forces of impact a Herring missile can take whiteout being eliminated.
The main structure of the Herring missile is based on a new technique of stuffing animals.
Parts of the Herring missile are actually much harder than the purest diamond on earth.
The story on how we discovered this new stuffing technique will be posted when I return from a week vacation in Tenerife Spain starting this Sunday.

This looks like a fine time to really test the Norwegian command and control structures. While the leader has his derriere parked on some warm sunny beach sipping drinks his fellow comrades are stuck at home freezing their asses off eating last year's canned herring. I bet there's some resentment that can be tapped and some possible intelligence recruitment possibilities here.

Enjoy that vacation El Wire!

Note to self: For igloo raiding make sure and pack the flame throwers. Polar bears hate flames and it makes overall access so much easier.

By the way, enjoy your vacation. Many of us will.

K4-also, take note that we hit Tenerife with a neutron weapon ahead of the dirtier one depicted. All comm is out within 500 miles of that island.

Yes Major Roosevelt, Norwegian graphics quality is smart and fast, and this is not free time but war time.

Fun with the Apokiliptikans

Post by Barb Wire » Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:29 pm

Using our HTTT (Herring Time Travel Technology), I went to the 2006 Burning Man, to take a photo of what's going to happen there. We are going to have so much fun with the Apokiliptikans!!!

This picture shows one of the Apokiliptikans trying to find one of our EHM's (Exploding Herring Mine) burried in the playa dust. I disguised myself as one of their bomb-seekers, just to have a laugh!

A Herringmonger wanted to go ice fishing. He'd seen many books on the
subject and, finally getting all the necessary tools together, he made for the ice.

After positioning his comfy footstool, he started to make a circular cut in the ice.
Suddenly, from the sky, a voice boomed, "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE."

Startled, the Herringmonger moved farther down the ice, poured a thermos of cappuccino and began to cut yet another hole.
Again from the heavens the voice bellowed, "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE."

The Herringmonger, now worried, moved clear down to the opposite end of the ice. He set up his stool once more and tried again to cut a hole.

The voice came once more, "THERE ARE NO FISH UNDER THE ICE."

He stopped, looked skyward, and asked, "IS THAT YOU, LORD?"


The voice replied,


"NO, THIS IS THE MANAGER OF THE HOCKEY RINK

Clearly there are fish under the playa dust. I guess we will be the first camp to reach that hidden gold mine...

Hello my Fishy Friends across the Sea...

Today is Part One of our New Series, "Fish Out Of Water: How Fish can Best be Prepared for BM"

As has been mentioned before, the Black Rock Desert is not a suitable environment for fish, being a hot, dry, salt graben that is frequented by giant wind storms. However, with suitable preparation, even Fish Out of Water can be enjoyed on the Playa...you readers at home can follow along using Fluffy, your pet goldfish, as a substitute for Herring;
==============================================

WHOLE FISH BAKED IN SALT
Regardless of the salt you use here, whether it be kosher, rock, playa, or sea salt, it will rarely be put to better use than encasing an entire fish while it bakes. The fish emerges succulent, with every ounce of flavor and texture intact, and the salt breaks away leaving just the perfect hint of saltiness.



One whole fish weighing about 1 1/2 pounds, cleaned, head, tail, and scales left on
10 whole Tellicherry peppercorns
4 bay leaves
2 pounds coarse salt (I recommend sea salt)
Extra virgin olive oil for serving
Chervil sprigs for garnish


1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (ed.note: the back of a Volvo at BM gets this hot)

2. Rinse the fish with cold water, pat it dry and refrigerate until just before cooking (grey water may also be used)

3. Pour a fine layer of salt in the bottom of an oven-proof baking dish that is just slightly larger than the fish. Lay two bay leaves on the salt, then place the fish on the bay leaves. Place the peppercorns inside the belly cavity of the fish, then top the fish with the remaining 2 bay leaves. Pour the remaining salt over the fish to cover it, leaving the tail fin exposed if necessary. (if using the Playa as your dish, marker flags are recommended for safety)

3. Place the fish on the middle rack in the center of the oven and bake for 25 minutes. You cannot test the fish for doneness — you simply have to trust the timing. Remove the fish from the oven and gently crack off the layer of salt, removing as much of it as you can. Most of the skin will come off the fish as well — what doesn't come off when you remove the salt you need to remove gently, using a sharp knife. 4. Remove the fillets divide the fish among four slightly warmed dinner plates. Drizzle with olive oil and garnish with the chervil, if desired. (remember to leave no MOOP)

Makes four servings.

We'll have fish one way ore the other. If we can't find it under the playa dust, we'll certainly find it in the air.

It kinda smells like socks around here instead of herring lately.
