Traviscounty Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 So my buddy stopped by to say hi while he was on his daily walk around the neighborhood. He was thirsty, so I made him a glass of ice water. I got a phone call, and he went in the kitchen to get his drink. He took a big gulp of my vinegar/urchin water I had in a cup. I thought it was funnier than he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleoRon Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I've heard that pickled urchin juice is good for the digestion. Add some vodka and a lime wedge and you can market it as Urchin Ooze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traviscounty Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 I'm still laughing. You guys should have seen his reaction. I just remembered that when I was a little kid, if one of us siblings asked the other to get them a glass of water (the old "as long as you're up) we would always dump a bunch of salt in it. Ahhh, the good old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irradiatus Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Reminds me of the age-old wonderful prank: "You ever eaten a persimmon?" "No" "Try one of these - the green ones are best..." Show of hands who knows what I'm talking about... (they are tasty - when RIPE) "The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be.

I had an (evil) uncle whose version of that involved jack-in-the-pulpit root. (Makes an habanero taste like a grape).
