Happy Sunday

[ahoustondj]

I hope you guys have a Happy Sunday. This is one of the weekends I dread, only a few more hours to go after last night's Gig. I had a couple hours of sleep. Today I am doing the Volunteer thing (4-6 Times per year). I am hosting a Blood Drive from 10.00am thru 3.00pm to collect Blood. I have been doing this at my Church's Event Hall now for about 15 years. The need for Blood is always there since there is no current replacement. I will be using my Trusty Bose AWM for background music, to soothe the Donors LOL. (I get compensated for this part, the Hosting is Volunteer) I know I will be a dead puppy after 4.00pm.

You'll live!!
That is so kind of you to have Volunteer all these years. I, my self donate & do double red. Get's my gallon count up faster !!
You don't need to get your Bose up real high in the air or spread the Bose very far apart , Your guest are setting or lying or reclining.
Most blood drives are to collect blood!

Kudos there Canute .. always good to help out the Red Cross.

And we won't comment on being a push-play DJ.

Ahhh home now. Its is extremely hot and humid in Houston today. Having to put up all the Banners, Signs, Directional Arrows, Setup Chairs in the Hall etc has just about wiped me out. No pics of the Bose as it was just set out on a Table for Background Music from Recorded Jazz CDs that I have. The Blood Drive was Sponsored by the K of C of which I am an Officer, The Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center is the outfit that comes to collect the Blood. www.giveblood.org The main thing is that we exceeded our Goal for this Blood Drive.

When you do Double Reds you can't donate as often so it works out to be the same. Today we gave out special T-Shirts to all the Donors.

Yes I know Canute. I thought you would have found this funny sense you've been a Volunteer for 15 years!? So, What mass did you attend this weekend??

I just came back from Church. I made a stop at the Butcher's shop on the way home but they did not have any Goat Meat. I have been feeling for some Curry Goat with Rice.

Just don't buy any meat that'll CLOG your arteries...
you need them to be open until you donate a pint!

If you buy the red meat without the fatty streaks and use the correct cooking methods, you won't have a problem eating any kinds of meats. You will be surprised to know that there are more fatty streaks in a Fillet Mignon than in a Round Steak or Top Sirlion. The Fillet Mignon is more expensive, go figure. It is those tiny fatty streaks that will get you not the lean meat itself.

This is called marbling. Top sirloin is my favorite steak.

Comes home from church, and stops at the butcher on the way home...? WTF!

I's there something I'm missing regarding some sort of morality in life about all of the animals being created by God (not that I believe in that bullsh_t).

Go back to the islands dude.

Yep, the marbling comes from those fatty streaks which are easily injested but not digested.

Unfortunately, it's also what gives the meat most of it's delicious goodness!

Unfortunately some people continue to eat the things that are bad for them especially when cooked the wrong way. Those marbleized types of meat are best cooked slow over a grill on in the oven on a rack so that the fat can drip away. Eating those kinds of cuts rare or half done is a recipe for disaster later on but people don't care enough for their bodies. They wait until the bad things happen and hope there will be some magic pill to fix things.
