catfish |
|

Once the Gulf of Mexico Redfish was a trash fish; lots of people would
hook them and, seeing what they had, threw them back in. Then some fat
furry guy named Paul Prudhomme opened K-Paul's, a sleazy restaurant on
Chartes Street in New Orleans' French Quarter and started serving
Blackened Redfish, and the species got close to extinction.
You probably can't get redfish, but catfish works as well, maybe
better.
Buy a jar of PP's Blackened Redfish Magic spice stuff. Get a large,
thick skillet and set it over a gas fire, set to max, for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, no rush, take two nice catfish fillets at room temp,
slather them with melted butter, and cover well with Mr P's stuff. Now
fry the fish in the hot skillet until both sides are moderately black.
If the fillets are thick, you can reduce heat and cover for a few
minutes to let it cook through.
Have plenty of cold beer on hand; you'll need it.
Dessert suggestion: Larkin's Custard Bread Pudding.

I've heard recently that they've now got 8 oz beers down there as |
well as the [fast chug so it doesn't get warm] 10 oz can.
At any rate, IMO, Cajun seasoning (like you mention) is the only way
to *fry* a fish. Especially those fishy tasting fresh water things
like catfish. Louisianna Fish Fry comes to mind. Gal in a northern
states market fed me a sample once.

Some of the search engines take anything you type and create a
click-through from it. So "elephant bras" becomes a box "Get your
elephant bras at discountcameras.com" or something.
Silly.

You may think so, but did you know that elephants actually have tits
rather than udders?

But then when you consider also 3 x 37 = 111, you can make all sorts of
interesting numbers. It's a way to get your kids interested in
arithmetic.

The good news is that nothing is compulsory.
The bad news is that everything is prohibited.

And it's always fun to square things like 11111.

Other number tricks for the kids: (calculators are OK)
1 / 37 = ?
1 / 27 = ?
142,857 * 2 = ?
142,857 * 3 = ?
142,857 * 4 = ?
142,857 * 5 = ?
142,857 * 6 = ?
142,857 * 7 = ?
There are a couple of tricks that end up "71077345" ("ShELLOIL"
upside-down) or "55378008" ("BOOBLESS" upside-down) These were popular
when personal calculators became affordable.
