Fried catfish and hush puppies
I grew up in Kansas and the only fried fish I had until I was an adult and moved away was channel cat. You'd take the fillet and let it rest in a small bucket of club soda for a couple of minutes, then dredge it in seasoned corn meal--pop it in the pot of hot oil...
Not to parse this guy's commentary like it's a piece in some junior level college lit class, but I think he does feel that all hat wearers are dorks regardless of the brand. Akubra is not a cheap throwaway brand, and I quote:
"In Australia, there have been hats that chose to wear dorks long...
Eichten's Bison Brats
I love Eichten's bison meat brats

Their liverwurst is fantastic, too. Pretty good artisan cheeses as well. And an Eichten bison ribeye can't be beat (although at 15 bucks a pound retail a little out of my...
I bought a six pack Sioux City Birch Beer (part of the White Rock Beverage Co. line) at a Dillon's in Lawrence, KS--I bet you could find it in Wichita.
When I moved from my neighborhood to the South West U.S. I really missed the pho I'd get in the many Vietnamese cafes in Minneapolis--I like mine with rare brisket, tendon, and bible tripe--plus the standard fixings. And a little Rooster sauce!
I also sorely missed a well made Chicago Dog (I...
Maybe...
I dunno J B, the writer pretty much was saying that hats in the city wore dorks. Ordinary non-dorks were chosen by ball caps (ball caps, in my opinion, have the transformational power to turn anyone into a dork, even baseball players--and I do own a few myself). So I think he is...
Surly Bitter Brewer
Bitter Brewer beer (local stuff) served on tap at Ngon's Vietnamese Bistro in Frogtown. Excellent beverage, went well with the way I like my pho (a little on the spicy side).
Zorro!
Just like the classic way to wear a flat crowned sombrero cordobes (like what Zorro wears)! Only they used silk, I think. And don't make a mask out of the do-rag part.
I would never tell you what you are "allowed" to say. I will say that "coolie" originally meant a manual laborer in Asia (usually the Far East). Like in a lot of places around the world, manual labor had a certain stigma attached to it, but it was still acceptable to refer to someone as a coolie...
May Not Need To
Just read an interesting commentary that pointed out that Mel isn't so well known among the under 30 age group. It concluded that his career was kind of already over before the world found out what a jackass he is.
