I hadn't realized that there were microwave ovens around capable of handling a half-ton of meat.

King Cranky and Shakes are right: if George Bush doesn't want us to dwell on New Orleans, then it's probably a good idea for us to do so. Regarding New Orleans, Publius asks a very simple question:

Anna was mercifully asleep when I got home. When I told Edie about Matt, she was subdued. She put her hand to her mouth and sat down quickly. Then to my surprise, her…
My wife is chinese. So in our house, comfort food is often something chinese. For
her, one of her very favorite things is dumplings, also known as pot-stickers. They're
time consuming to make, but not difficult. They're really delicious, well worth the effort.
They're best with a homemade…
I don't know how they can manage not to cook the thing. I have trouble just defrosting a chicken breast fillet without the borders getting cooked.
Great. Now they're going to require a gigantic paper towel.
This frakkin' squid is worse than The Pearl and If You Give A Mouse A Cookie combined.
Well, if it all goes wrong, they get in the Guinness Book of Records for the largest ever portion of calamari.
Geez, haven't they seen any monster movies from the 50's? The moment you irradiate an animal, it becomes gigantic and rampages across cities. Imagine what will happen when you do this to a creature that's 'colossal' to being with!
(And don't tell me it's not a problem 'cause it's already dead. That's what they thought about the Beast From 20,000 Fathoms.)
Speaking of squid, I noticed yesterday that my local Wal-Mart is now selling Squid Soap. Fun for all!
>>Imagine what will happen when you do this to a creature that's 'colossal' to being with!
It will shrink. :) "Honey, I Shrunk the Squid" doesn't sound like a good movie title, though.
Sorry if this ends up being a double or triple post, but I'm having problems getting this comment to appear. Anyway...
I'm not a biologist, so somebody tell me why they couldn't just put the squid in a big tub of formaldehyde and let it defrost in there. Wouldn't the formaldehyde keep the outer parts from rotting while the inner parts were thawing? Or is there a good reason why this can't be done?
I can't get the video to work, but anyway, how can anyone think this is good solution? It seems like a bad idea to take a risk on such a priceless specimen.
Favorite quote from the article:
"calamari rings made from it would be like tractor tyres"
8-) !
How do you think these people http://www.ancientwood.com/ get kauri boardsdown to useable moisture content?

I guess they aren't going to use a vat of ethylene glycol or propylene glycol solution to do this?

Oh no - I live in a city in New Zealand. You've got me worried now - how do I protect myself?
Ah, but Ptaylor it won't be a problem. We're nuclear free remember? Radioactive mutant squid would be illegal, so it would just have to go and bother the Australians.
Colossal Squid is the new Jumbo Shrimp. I'll have mine breaded, thanks.

Well, I would say, "You're in my prayers," but this is REALLY the wrong blog for that.
Maybe somebody could also irradiate a sperm whale to defeat the colossal squid. Of course, then you'd have a giant sperm whale to deal with.

Irradiate godzilla.
Again.
