the alaskan salmons? they be heading to the dinning table of the righteous and worthy, already filleted and lovingly packed.

perhaps .. but the springs???
they be going directly from the end of my
fishing line onto my barbeque - the excess
into my freezer as lox to sit along side of the
smoked alaska black cod, herring roe on seaweed
and dungeness crab .... and halibut.

the venison is in another freezer <g>

oh yes - we are most worthy.

:)

Food is globalized as the Chef in Sheraton Bandung told me and my wife back in 1995.

She thought she could not get strawberry dessert (she was pregnant of Experiment) and wanted to eat that.

The chef (whom we drink together once in a while) had a dessert guy just come from australia and told me that he was sure food was being globalized. In the future, he told us, you would find Indonesian food in Brazil restaurant, Swedish herring in Singapore, Braziliam meet in Japan, and so on...

Yes, he was right as the Portuguese sardines and wagiu beef could attest yesterday.

There is a fringe countries or areas that did not see globalization. They think their island is still the norm.

EU told Spanish and Portuguese fishermen to stop fishing. Their fleets are no more.

The smaller olives are for oil should go. They were told not uproot their olive trees and plant those big green olives we tasted yesterday.

So the Portuguese and Spanish did.

Now they need to import food. I think pretty soon they will join the Icelanders taking their boats and go fishing once again.

We are ready to buy and eat the catch.

I guess you folks will be shipping stuff via solar. I'm afraid the concept of peak oil eludes you all. You can't frame it as a U.S. problem. Will those mainland Chinese and neighboring Indians all be driving a billion cars powered by what...hot air?

The first resource war of the 21st century is already on in Afghanistan and the U.S. has boots on the ground to help the deserving and long suffering people of Afghanistan develop their natural resources.

A distortion that would truly warm the heart of Mao Tsetung.

You guys ate sardines? Very humble... I'm impressed! ;)

P.S. I like the BELA-Olhão product.
