Hydrorocket - I'm having a terrific heart attack just looking at that!
Hogs and when growing up.
In his youth my Pop was a farmer. So it was in his later years and during one of his surprise birthday party some old farmer buds came in the living room with a wooden box with holes. Out he pulls a piglet sporting diapers and duct tape. The thing looked like it was in shock, houseful of laughs and Mom wasn't too happy. Pop decides to keep it and in the short term raised it in the basement until we could get him a pen set-up in a shed. We fed that thing everything, the best leftovers, beer, you name it. Got him up to 280 lbs. and was ready for the butcher. The thing was normally timid but when his fateful day came, it seemed to know and went nutzo! I recall how massive he was hanging next to the normal 'lightweight' dark hogs while we watched. Bit grizzly here but fast forward... damn good tasting pork that fed our family for quite awhile. Thinking now it might not be a bad thing to do these days.
