Best Dim Sum this side of HK

mike, i think 95% of asians are lactose intolerant. having said that, i eat pizza. sorta a crap shoot for me , (in the gambling reference type of way)

tabs, come to the bay area. Zachary's pizza will make your forget that other place.

I wonder what Dim Sum would taste like if you used Civet Cat? Ooooh yuuuum,,,,,,,,,,

[vash]

no way, dumbass. civet cat is way too tough. it really benefits from a slow and wet cooking method, like braising. where the connective tissue gets broken down to gelatin. nice gravy. get with the program, westy!

omnivores and carnevores flesh is really harsh (IMO), the herbovores seem to be the tasty ones - but if your hungry or your culture suggests the diet than anything will do.

[vash]

mike, hunger is the best spice.

hey OT, but is clean motor oil considered a haz waste?

[M.D. Holloway]

nope - niether is dirty motor oil.

Stupid story, 18 years ago, a large farm in upstate NY bought a drum of our gear oil. They used the drum for waste fluids and dumped it along with 50 other drums of some unknown stubstance. Well - the land was recently developed and guess whose drum was the onoly one that still had the label on it? You guessed it. So long story interesting we have spent mucho $$$ proving that those 50 other drums did not come from us and the one that did contained something other than what we sold this farm that is now only a memory.

Moral to the story - if your going to use drums to host your products, make sure the label will degrade in a short period of time!

Boy, and you thought I was the dumba$$

its a legit question - I get a call on it about every other week.

Also, if you get oil in a 55gl drum and you call a company to pick up the empty drum, the drum has to be clean or have less than 1/2 inch of oil in the bottom or they will consider it a haz waste. You would not believe the expense there is in testing an unknown and deciding if it hazardous or not.

If you really want to screw with someone, call OSHA and the EPA on them. The resources and time it takes to keep them at bay can hurt your competition - not that I would do that or anything....

i am in this fight now. dirty oil, secondary containment..blah blah blah. just wondering why, say kragen or autozone didnt need to have the oil in the same protection. thanks mike.

[Westy]

Yeah, but ur still a dumba$$

[vash]

better a dumbass than a smartass...no wait, i got that wrong.

[M.D. Holloway]

There are a few flushing fluids on the market that folks will use - they contain solvents or cracylic acids which are very hazardous. That is the only secondary contaminant that comes to mind that would create fits.

Many places will not take your oil these days due to the haz concerns. Many other folks are considering recycling the oil. Real bad idea.

Wow - talk about hi-jacking a thread, from Dim Sum to waste oil, guess anything can be connected back to lubricants in less than 4 steps. Sorry for the Hi-Jack...

[Westy]

What a great philosophy. Everytime Theodore starts one of his better-than-thou or racist rants, we just hijack the thread.

[M.D. Holloway]

Twist it back to sex or lubes and you really start effecting my productivity...

[Westy]

OOOOOOOH Lubes,,,,now ur talking
