My first thought was “Dinner!” Good looking recipes on this thread. Makes me homesick for South Texas, and Cabrito en Mole.

Yes, I made a couple of hams too. Also, I got my smoker from sausagemaker.

We got a decapitated goat, consumption of warm intestines, blood all over the floor, topless girls distributing fruit and snake handling. This sounds like a slow weekend at Laz’s house.

Sony shouldn’t apologize. They didn’t slowly torture a goat to death, they just used it’s carcass as a prop. It may have been over the top, but look at the game it was used for celibrating over. The star jumps around chopping up ancient Greek monsters. It all sounds like fun, party and game.

Hey LLS-
Remember how you were saying that AVS Forum is biased by corruption towards HD-DVD, and won't give Blu-Ray the time of day?
Well, guess what: I just tried posting an excerpt of this article twice over in the Blu Ray section of AVS Forum (as PS3 is critical to Blu Ray), and guess what - it got yanked - twice!
I think you'll have to re-think your accusations - I think the reality is that they don't like biting the hand of any advertiser - and Blu Ray advertises there too....

Guests at the event were even invited to reach inside the goat's still-warm carcass to eat offal from its stomach.I thought everybody knew it ain't a real party until you bring out the still-warm goat carcass.

They are just getting sicker and sicker.

I once ate goat meat, it was at a Sephardic bar mitzvah in Jerusalem.
I can’t remember what the goat tasted like, other than the sauce was HOT HOT HOT.

This is sick and depraved. I bought a playstation only weeks ago and I am considering returning it These antics just show the desperation of a company whose heyday is long gone.
I doubt Sonys heyday is long gone, but if you are upset and feel like making a few bucks, put that baby on e-bay and see how much it goes for.

I guess you missed the chicom HD DVD player/Walmart rumor that was spun as truth but ended up being nothing more than amir and his yapping yard dog’s lies and propaganda. No, MSAVS as it is called on many sites, is and will remain on the Toshiba/Microsoft team. Industry Insiders across the board laugh at what has become of the one time premier site for Audio/Video. The truth hurts... I know... I used to love that site... no more!

Hey, wheres the sensitivity over Japanese culture?"
Japanese culture? How do you figure?
Did you read the article? The event took place in Athens to celebrate a game set in Ancient Greece. Sony is a huge, worldwide company with many subdivisions. The event was almost certainly run by somebody working with or under
Sony Computer Entertainment of Europe.
