Po-Boys. I don't have a f'n clue what Scrapple is. Maybe some kinda generic board game?  :-)

It's made out of leftover parts.  Take all the known real cuts of meat and the bones out of a pig, and put what's left through a blender with some pepper, then extrude the resulting paste into bricks that look kinda like large grey-brown tofu chunks.  Slice it and fry it.  When the slices go to about half size they are done.  Kinda like that.

It didn't taste bad until I knew what was in it.  Never ate it again.

What are those things?

scrapple

Hoagie

My uncle Johnnie was at the card game where the hoagie was invented. Not a bouncy.

pork mush

It's like sausage without the casing.  Sort of.  I've never actually eaten any, but I did see it once.  Kinda like Bigfoot.

Yeah, roughly similar as far as the ingredients go except it's more than the head.  Head cheese I've seen is usually chunks of meat in a gelatin matrix though, scrapple is all ground up so fine that there are no identifiable meat fibers in it.

We can just divide it red/blue by county.  Then sell them potatoes for a buck apiece, coal for $600/ton, wood for $20/board, beef by the ounce.... 

In order to SELL them anything, they have to have something of VALUE to BUY with.  I'm sorry, but long-winded screeds from a s/he/it panther in a moonbat's body, and portraits of the Blessed Virgin in elephant excrement just don't hold a whole lot of value for me.

Well, there's always high-quality porno movies, they'll probably still have that corralled.

My late paternal ancestor, who came from far northwestern Pennsylvania, used to dine on this out here in Nebraska.  It's my understanding scrapple is a dish from central southeastern Pennsylvania, so I have no idea how this happened.

He also poured syrup on it.

Myself, I never partook.

Well, at least they have the right VP candidate. That was Biden's solution to Iraq.  :whatever:  :mental:

For the record, I'm against it. I'm from a red county in a blue state. I don't feel like moving. You guys don't have decent scrapple, cheesesteaks, or hoagies.

Yeah, but we have hog's head cheese, grits, and liver & lights. That would more than make up for the loss.  :-)

30. Most of "them" live off of "us"
 We're the ones with the jobs

They're the ones on welfare

Yet they're the ones who complain about taxes

And we're the ones who pull our own weight

40. HOW TO SPLIT THE COUNTRY
 Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 11:16 AM by Ezlivin
Dear Red States:

We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all of the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New California.

To sum up briefly but to give you a clear pictures: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs.

blah
blah
blah

How long do you think those businesses and entrepreneurs will stay there under a 90% Top Marginal Rate?

Something tells me you haven't thought this through. :mental:

You get Harvard, we get Ole Miss, Emory, Tulane, Vanderbilt, Rice, Millsaps, Georgia Tech, VMI, The Citadel, Wake Forest, Duke, Florida, and all the other good schools. Cool.

We also get all of the entrepreneurs since they'll be flocking to our country to get away from your excessive taxation that you'll need to pay for your womb to tomb programs. We get Coca-Cola, Bell South, Home Depot, and many, many others.

You can keep the f'n Statue of Liberty. Someone should have scrubbed the words off of her years ago. We're tired of taking the sick, poor, old immigrants of the world. ....now they're your problem.

You get Stem Cell research? Fine, we get the CDC. 

Oh, and the best beaches? Tell ya what, if you think that it's a damn good thing you idiots ARE leaving. New England beaches suck. California beaches? Keep'em, along with the Great Whites. We'll keep Destin, Pensacola, Panama City, Clearwater beach, Miami beach, Daytona beach, Hilton Head, and Myrtle Beach.

Sounds like a plan.

No problem: Just bring'em with you when you come down south. I think they'll be an opening in Atlanta after all the shifting is done.
