I was watching the Travel Channel and a commercial came on for Anthony Bourdain’s Ne Reservations show for Monday, March 3 at 10 p.m.EST He will be in Hawaii and will be sampling ALL THINGS SPAM! This will be a classic, and I’ll probably record it so I can pass it down to my children and grandchildren.
For me, this will be a religious experience. I’m sure Mikey and Paul will be glued to the TV right along with me. Don’t miss it!
Joe
Paul,
I hope you have a TV? You know those square box thingy’s, that you can change channels, with the flipper knob! Here is a TIP; Get a metal coat hanger and stick it on top of your TV, then bend the hanger any which way, to get a better signal. 
There are 2 nobs for Vertical Hold & Horizontal Hold and all you have to remember is Vertical is when your sober and Horizontal is when your not. I don’t think the Hawaii Spam Show is going to be Pay-Per-View, so you won’t have to pay for it! OH! One more thing! That cord attached to your TV! It has a plug on the end of it and you have to plug it into the wall.
Thanks,
Doug
Joe,
Thanks for the info. I enjoy Tony’s take on food and culture. I’ll look forward to seeing this show. I’ve try to maintain a position of neutrality during the resent “SPAM WARS” but I have to confess, I too have an appreciation for the fine dining experience that only spam can provide. My father first introduced me to the wonder and versatility of spam while squirrel hunting and trout fishing as a child. Nothing like sliced spam fried in an old army mess kit over an open fire! YUM! YUM!
Let not your heart be troubled by the nay sayer and less refined palettes that would deny themselves of this culinary delight of pork shoulder and ham. Let them sup upon lesser foods and leave the true delicacies for those with refinement and taste enough to enjoy the finer things in life.
Keep the faith! Now where did I put that can of vienna sausages?:mrgreen:
Secretly Paul sings to himself…
I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it
I’m about to lose control and I think I like it (Spam, that is)
I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it
And I know I know I know I know I know I want some gotta have some 
Dinty Moore beef stew heated over a Sterno stove and fried Fox squirrel during fall archery season, served from the tail-gate of my Nash Rambler in the north woods of Michigan. And to realize, I could have had Spam instead; damn!
Thanks for the laugh guys JC I feel your pain… lol
Uhhhhhhhhhhh. errrrrrrrrrr. welllllllllllllllllll. Hmmmmmmmmmm.
I don’t even know HOW to respond to such a post! Maybe, when what’s left of my mind can wrap itself around the fact that SOMEONE has so damn much MONEY that they can afford to wastes it on “televising a program on the human consumption of waste by-products”, I’ll have an idea?
I FULLY AGREE with JC. “eating the tailgate of a Nash Rambler”… sounds far MORE appetizing, than that of eating “ground up slaughter house floor sweepings in a can”. At least the chemicals, toxic acids and metal dissolving agents found in Denny Moor Stew, would soften the tailgate enough to digest it.
Geeze, Joe. After receiving those gorgeous flies, you sent me, (albeit the added attempt on my life, with the other items included also), I just can’t put 2 and 2 together, to think a program like “Eating Sewage In The Islands”, would be something that excites you so much!?! “RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE”??
Now, DOUG, YES! THAT… I would easily understand HIM getting this excited about a SPAM show. He STILL thinks, that chocolate milk comes only from brown cows and that strawberry milkshakes and ice cream, comes from red ones. Neither, have I been able to convince the man, that "SPAM, DOENS’T come, only from “rectangular pigs”.
And, I’m more than sure, Duggie-Wuggie, WILL enjoy the show, only if, he stops trying to get it on his radio, first, and complain because “the picture’s hard to see”.
Even The Buckeye Bandit, I’m SURE will also tune in. I’ve talked to Mikey on the land line enough to know, he’s man of deep religious convictions and beliefs, so being this “religious whatever” it’s supposed to be, PLUS his love of SPAM, I’m sure will glue him right to his TV for the entire episode. He will also, no doubt, chow down his daily SPAM devotional of a 3-slice-toasted-SPAM-sandwich, while enjoying the entire thing.
But, sorry to say, I won’t be watching it. Instead, I’ll either simply go FISHING or maybe even, head to the local wrecking yard and try and seek out a tasty Nash tailgate, for my supper…
Dinty Moore. Isn’t she an actress? Wonder what she is doing hanging out in the Michigan woods with Castwell. Perhaps a casting lesson from Superman himself. LOL
Joe:
If you put aluminium foil on the antenna lead and slide it up and down that will also help to clarify the signal. You know its the same aluminium foil, you use in your hat to keep the aliens/Government agents and the like from brainwashing you with secret radio signals.
I sure hope the Government isn’t putting those spybot micro chips in the spam anymore.
[b]Hawaii the The Aloha State, land of Hula Girls, Sunshine, Pineapples and SPAM!
[/b]The State bird of Hawaii. is The Nene or Hawaiian Goose. Which is a very Close relative of the Canadian goose.
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2002/02/0206_020206_canadiangeese.html
The State flower is the Yellow hibiscus
The state Flowers are Hawaiian leis
The State dish is a mixture of Raw Fish SPAM, Pineapple and some other icky goopy stuff. Called Poi.
Pronounced- Poi
The State Fish - Is the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa.
Pronounced - Hoo-moo-Hoo-moo-Noo-koo-Noo-koo-AH-poo-AH-ah.
For non Hawaiians who cannot Hoo moo Noo Koo it also goes by the name Fred.
(Because an ingredient of Poi is that disgusting Spam it is illegal to add the state fish to the state dish thus making it the outlawed poo poo Poi . )
The state Marine Mammal is the Humpback Whale. Spam fed Humpbacks are known as the botched pigmy porpoise because of their stunted size and misshapen bodies.
The State tree is the Kukui or Candlenut. Often used in the production of Spam, insecticides, dioxins poisons and other really scary icky stuff.
The state gem is Black Coral. Which is really just Spam Fed white coral. Only one feeding is required to turn white coral black, however two servings are required for gem quality coral . It is a very rare and hardy white coral that survives the first Spam feeding due to the various toxins in the meat. Thus the rarity of Black coral.
Spam is the state mystery meat.
The State mystery is why anybody would eat Spam.

For my Hawaiian friends the above is meant as purely humor and should not be taken as an insult to your wonderful State. Perhaps an insult to Spam but no more than that.
God, GNUBEE you’re my NEW HERO!!
It was just a matter of time until you outsourced heroism to the Canucks. GBF is probably willing to work longer hours for less money, especially since they have national health care and he’s now on a pension.
Joseph the Slighted
Don’t worry Joe, it’s all a big “ploy”. (Just don’t tell GnUBee).
If we can get in good, with folks that can’t do any better designing a country’s flag than merely drawing a dead leaf on it, I think we can gain more of their fishable waters, without paying for “tourist’s licenses and fees”.
Thus, the veiled compliment to GnuBee. I can’t run the risk, that GnuBee may somehow find this post and read it, so that’s all I’m divulging at the moment.
However, ANYONE that can take and make the effort HE DID to disqualify SPAM as an edible food DOES deserve SOME credit, Canuck or not! Just think of the many lives GnuBee may have saved, without even knowing it!?
Just don’t take offense, until I explain my invasion plans. Doug drew them up, so I KNOW they’re going to work great!!
For now, I have to go… my Nash tailgate is simmering and I need to stir it.
Doug drew them up. Ha ha ha, Doug drew them up. Oh hee hee hahahahahahahahaha… gasp ,wheeze , hahahaha … OH Canada prepare to defend your borders here comes Dougie’s army. Hahahhah make it stop make it stop it hurts to much to laugh . Snicker snicker… hee hee hee … Be still my heart. :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:
Try to imagine an army trying to follow Dougs directions ha ha, look out Mexico! He will be marching thru your territory to get to us. hahahahahahaha. An army marches on its stomach , Doug and His head advisor Joe V will feed it Spam. Sea turtles on their way to lay eggs will race past this mighty force. Hah!
Anyone got spare parts for the Nash command car?
Yes, get them here: http://nashparts.com/ and here: http://www.blaserauto.com/ and from our friends at J.C.Whitnet, I offer http://www.jcwhitney.com/Nash-Rambler-Body-Repair-Parts/200729748-600001014.jcw
But we’re in big trouble as long as Paul keeps throwing the parts on the Barby.
Joseph the Resourceful (but not as good as Doug:p)
It’s been a long winter and I got cranky, but I have been saving my money and have invested in several septic tanks, and as soon as I receive them and get them started I’m going to invade!..
Listen Here Gnu Bee Flyer!,
Why would I invade Canada, when you have stated (Multiple Times), that there are no fish in Canada?
I believe an Army could march on Spam for a few kilometers. There are a lot worse things an Army could eat, like C-Rations & K-Rations. And quit makin’ fun of my Army! Just because we like to take a lot of breaks, doesn’t mean we don’t mean business! Haven’t ya ever heerd of “DEHYDRATION?” We’ll git there, when we git there!
Also, don’t think I don’t know the truth about what you Canada Guys did with all our Nash Metros!!! 
You stole em’!! Keep your mitts of our National Treasures!!!
Here is the first & last invasion of Canada;The Invasion of Canada in 1775 was the first major military initiative by colonial separatist forces during the American Revolutionary War. Two separate expeditions were launched, which joined forces but were defeated at the Battle of Quebec in December 1775. The British then launched a counter-offensive in 1776, driving the Americans back to Fort Ticonderoga. The end of the campaign set the stage for the Saratoga campaign of 1777. End Quote.
Doug
Well, GnuBee, there ya’ have it!!
You’ll be tremble’in and a-shakin, no doubt when you see an army led by Doug, fortified behind him will be an ENDLESS line of “attack Septic Tanks”, with JC in command of that arm, then following in the clean up battle, with be a mean, vicious, SPAM FED BATTALION of Joe’s "SPARBY RANGERS!
(the self propelled gaseous amenity of THAT group wiil easily defeat any and all resistance forces you may try and muster, BELIEVE ME!)
I’ll command, the operations from my Nash Rambler assault tank.
If I were YOU, man, I’d start diggin in, NOW!??!
I’d really LOVE :rolleyes: to watch the show, but I think I’ll be on the toitee reading a PETA application. Then I’m gonna fill it out on behalf of Michael Vick & seal the envelope with SPAM juice. Then I’m gonna write on the back of the envelope…
NO BULL!..I’ve switched to SPAM…the meat that spares REAL animals!
Oh gosh, I’ll bet I miss the whole show…woe is me.
Mikey
ATTENTION ALL FAOL MEMBERS!!
PUUUUUUULLLEASE, help out poor, poor, Mikey here? If you can, and get the channel, TAPE the Hawaiian SPAMfest, then send your tape to dear Mike?
Apparently, due to eating too much SPAM, he’ll be “on the toitee” when the show airs and may miss it!
If you don’t have his address, I DO, just PM me for it!
Did you guys miss JC’s subliminal message? He is going to fill the septic tanks with cycled Spam and try to foist it off on us.
PS there are plenty of fish in Canada, You are misquoting me again. I said there were No FISH IN BC! rest of Canada is chock full of Fish.
Tip for General Doug riding out there somewhere in your nash metropolitan … The rest of Canada is way east of Fishless BC . East is where the sun gets up in the morning thats where the fish are.
The rest of you folks may want to re-think Doug’s commission , He has completely ignored the war of 1812. The Canadians claim victory because they lost no major battles on Canadian soil and the Americans never fought us again. The border remains intact to this day.
The Americans claim victory because it was the beginning of the end for the British in North America. The battle of New Orleans which the Americans won over the British was regrettably fought after the peace treaty had been signed. It took 3 months for the signed treaty to make it across the pond.
Most Historians call The entire war a regrettable draw. As are most wars. Wikepedia has an excellent account of it.
Because of the war of 1812 should the Americans venture north again we will meet them at the border and give them a good talking to. We will shake hands like friends do and then we’ll all go Fly fishing East of the Rockies.
The war of 1812 gave us the saying. Don’t give up the ship. The words to the Star spangled banner. Don’t shoot till you see the whites of their eyes.
and dang it Martha I’m outta here. ( this last was from a settler named Fred who wanted no part of any dang war )
