"WATERSHIP DOWN"

You've read the book

You've seen the movie

Now--

EAT THE CAST

Fresh rabbit available by the pound
Not Funny !!!
Yum! Though I think I might find another use for the unused portion of the beer ...

BEER-BUTT RABBIT

2 whole rabbit, about 3 pounds each
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
2 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 12 oz. cans beer
1 small onion diced
2 cloves garlic diced

Rinse inside and out, pat dry. In small bowl, combine spices and sugar, mix well. Rub 1 teaspoon of mixture on inside of each chicken. Rub remaining mixture on rabbit's surface. Open beer can and pour off about half of the beer. Stuff onion and garlic into cans. Ease rabbit over beer cans, feet down, until rabbit is resting on can and legs. Cans must remain upright at all times. Add a handful of soaked hickory chips to the hot charcoal (optional). Place rabbit and beer cans on grill and close lid, leave vents open. Grill for 2 hours, or until legs and wings wiggle easily. Add six to eight briquettes to fire every 30 minutes.
Serves 8.
Pax,

You need to check things a bit better. You missed changing chicken to rabbit once and rabbits do not have wings.

Not a bad recipe though.

I've had rabbits as house pets for over a dozen years now. They are intelligent, clever, curious, and mischievious critters. They are easy to litter train and are friendlier and less destructive than cats.

Bunnies are for snuggling, not for eating. :)

(now cattle on the other hand are a bit dim and are delicious)

Any pet is better than a cat ... :evil:

We've had dogs, ferrets, snakes, mice (usually short term - see snakes), spiders, fish, etc.

What particular rabbit breeds do you recommend? As we get older smaller pets are more attractive and my wife has become allergic to ferrets.

We do have a rabbit theme in the house already (rabbit art, a Japanese tea set with rabbits, etc.).

it's days like today Ed, that I am glad...

...that I have no idea what you're talking about.


and I like cats. if foxes were easier to keep as pets (they generally don't make good pets or so I hear) we wouldn't have had so many cats in the past. most (all but two or three out of maybe 18 last I checked) of the scars on my hands have been from playing with cats.

I've got nothing against cats, other than the ones that roam the neighborhood killing birds, squirrels, rabbits, and any other thing they can get their claws into. But that is as much the owner's fault as it is the cat's.

I don't have any suggestions as to any particular breed. Some are higher maintainence than others, like the angoras, but that goes with any long furred animal.

Rabbits personalities vary widely by individual so you can't peg one breed as behaving in a certain way. I do recommend having them spayed or neutered for their health.

Check the animal shelters first. Rabbits are the third most often abandoned animal as they are all too often considered "disposable" pets.

The House Rabbit Society is a good source for information.

lets see, I've heard of Lop, mini-Lop, Rex, mini-rex.

I've seen spotted speckled, red black, even blue (ok so it's actually a grayish but the official term is blue.)

never heard of a Hefner's before, sounds like orc mischief to me!


yes we took rabbits in 4H for what I remember of it. my middle bro had one named pepperika (if I'm spelling that right)

remember I'm 'glad' I don't know what he's talking about.

*nods and in a Kronk-like voice* Yeah, riiight.

Beebee's recently got in into her head that if she is up, I should be too. Now around 5:30AM, I get a three pound furball jumping on my bed, digging at the covers, and snuffling in my ear until I acknowledge her presence.

ya know, when I first started the fanfiction, Ralph gave me the warning of making sure it wasn't too erotic later (after I looked up what 'erotic' meant) I discovered that "too erotic" was exactly how I mentally described Goblin Hollow!

so yes, I am quite indeed glad that I haven't and don't want a clue as to what anybody is talking about.

When I was in high school, my sister caught a couple of young foxes and we tried taming them. I don't know how sucessfully -- they seemed tame and friendly, but I can't say what they would have been like as adults. They were still pretty young when we donated them to the zoo...

Because of ... the smell.... the unbelievable smell. Horrible. Unspeakable.

They sure were cute, though, bouncing across the yard following our collie around.

And my answer is...?

"Well bunny girls are great, I really dig those silky ears.
And the Squrrill girls with the way they talk, they knock me out when they're down here.
The vulpine girls' sultry walk will make you feel alright,
But those lionesses, with the way they purr, they keep their boyfriends warm at night!

I wish all girls could be anthropomorphic girls..."

by Colm McSky

*snicker*

And since Ralph's a decent kinda guy, I'm not going to be any more ... err ... explicit concerning the joke floating around inside my (admittedly) perverted head.

Fortunately, my sweety was an anthro too.

Actually, as I recall, foxes helped provide the evidence that "domestication" was in the blood. A russian research attempt to improve the quality of foxes bred for fur accidentally resulted in a new fox whose fur was commercially worthless, but while they weren't useful financially, the foxes appeared to be as tame as dogs, and permanantly so.

There's a short article about it in Wikipedia, but I originally read about it years ago in a magazine devoted to fur & leather. (Dad was a leathercrafter in his off-duty time, specializing in rifle slings, pistol holsters and the like for his army buddies..)

The wiki article is here:

Yeah, the smell does tend to make one's hair stand on end.

I do not understant what it is that people just seem to have against tentacles. I mean when I think of tenticles I think of a squid or an octomus or a sea annenome or one of those things that attacked Frodo in The Lord of the Rings.

I honestly don't get it.
