    Man, that horse meat story. Some guy here in Sweden is outraged because he wasn't allowed to buy the food with horse meat... so he could give it to the poor.

    "We don't know how this meat was produced and it might be shot full of steroids and horse medicine and shit that's harmful to humans. We can't sell it because of that. Let's feed it to the poor!"

    The Food Standards Agency here had a bit of difficulty with that too. Soon after the story broke they went on record as saying it was safe to consume, until it was pointed out that given the provenance of the meat is entirely unknown, they might want to rethink that position somewhat.

    Considering how many drugs cattle is jacked up on, I think the horse might actually be safer

    Current working theory is that this has happened as a result of Romania suddenly severely restricting the use of horses on its roads.

    So, a lot of working animals are suddenly surplus to requirements and it is probably those that are being fraudulently sold as beef carcasses.

    UK beef is extremely traceable. Following the BSE thing you can generally trace farm, herd, and individual animal right up to point of sale, so it seems to be coming as a bit of a shock to the UK authorities that there is practically no traceability of beef originating from the wider EU.

    One time the teacher forced us to write compliments to each other and I mostly got a lot of bland "he is nice" notes

    I did get get a couple "he is good at magic" notes though

    I thought my middle school magic show went pretty well but I was disappointed by the lukewarm reaction to the disappearing water trick. Did I screw it up somehow? Because I thought that trick was pretty damn fantastic.

    The crowd was suitably wowed by the disappearing stamp trick though.

    I might be going salsa dancing tonight. So I guess, a busy night ahead.

    What does one wear salsa dancing? I was thinking this.

    Nothing wrong with that!

    I actually kind of feel weird about saying stuff like that. Because it is fun to joke about but also shouldn't be a thing people care about.

    Whoa. Picked up a bottle of English red wine. It tastes like no other wine I've come across. It's more like grape juice. Fruity as fuck.

    Not sure it's what I want in wine.

    EC. I'm sure there'll be plenty of jeans there, but salsa dancers tend to be dressier than average, depending on the venue.
