Triple G Appreciation thread

[Triple G]

No I didn't think to look there. All this hopping around is too much even for a bunny wabbit. Now that I have found them I award you five Jackies and a

[Lefty]

Most important part is that you enjoyed them.

[DonQuixote]

Hi, Triple G. I think I've heard them, but not necessarily seen them in the wild.
And my bigger question was the size comparison to the mourning dove in my mind.

Hello Trips...

[Triple G]

Hi Greg. How was your hump day.

[Triple G]

Hi, Triple G. I think I've heard them, but not necessarily seen them in the wild.
And my bigger question was the size comparison to the mourning dove in my mind.

They are about the same size. Maybe the quails are a little larger. I shot a vid at feeding time today, but the file type won't work here. The picture quality is bad, but the audio was good. I'll try attaching t to an email.

[King Gumby VIII]

Ok. Feeling better.
Had a busy work day.

[Ninja108]

we're not getting as many birds at the feeders this winter...wonder why?

[dynk]

I have 5 feeders out there, and have to fill them every other day. At times it is very active and other times not.
There are a lot of Gulls flying around today, so no smaller birds right now

[dynk]

Powerball had 2 winners last night


One was in Arizona, did you buy a ticket there?

[Triple G]

Yes. If I won, I'll send a private jet to fly you out for a visit.

Hope you are keeping you sandwiches under cover.

[dynk]

Eating indoors so no seagulls here

[dynk]

I am just a putty tat and will take care of those gulls

[Triple G]

Has that putty tat gone away yet? I won't come out until it's safe.

[Lefty]

They might call the bobwhites back there in the east but they are relatives of the
California Quail. Make a Cornish Game Hen look like a full grown chicken but good eats.

quail, and shrimp.

10 tbsp. butter
1 small yellow onion, peeled and chopped
8 cups fresh bread crumbs
1⁄2 bunch parsley, trimmed and chopped
1 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
1 tsp. dried summer savory
3–4 fresh sage leaves, chopped
3⁄4 cup Chicken Stock
6 tbsp. cream sherry
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 medium shrimp, peeled and chopped
8 boneless quail
8 slices bacon
1 tbsp. chopped dried rosemary leaves
Lawry's Seasoned Salt

1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until soft, 5–7 minutes. Transfer onions and any accumulated juices to a large mixing bowl, then add bread crumbs, parsley, fresh rosemary, summer savory, sage, chicken stock, and sherry, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss to mix well, then add shrimp and mix well again. Set stuffing aside.

2. Preheat oven to 375º. Rinse quail under cold running water, then pat dry with paper towels. Pack each cavity full of the stuffing. Wrap a slice of bacon around the middle of each quail, then season each with some dried rosemary and seasoned salt to taste. Arrange quail, breast side up, in a large, lightly greased baking dish. Roast, basting with pan juices occasionally, until bacon is crisp and quail are golden and cooked through, 35–45 minutes.

Lefty,
You DO like to torment our poor Triple G, don't you?!

Triple G,
I got the video - thanks.

And, Lefty, I was trying to be a little discrete in advising my previous exposure to Quail - but you are not far off the "wild game" platter that was a special at the Crystal Barn Restaurant.

[DonQuixote]

Triple G,
Since you mentioned posting your video of the Quail here -

[dynk]

The putty tat is very friendly

[DonQuixote]

I bet he's especially friendly to bunny wabbits and quail.
Especially when he's hungry.

[dynk]

He does not get hungry if well fed.

[DonQuixote]

It's WHAT he's being fed well, WITH, that has us concerned!

[Lefty]

GGG,

All night suckers and other treats

can be found in Leftovers.

[Triple G]

Don, thanks for posting the vid. I don't know how to do that. That was a small turnout for dinner. Tonight it was really crowded.

Hi Lefty, I'm off to Leftovers.

[DonQuixote]

Triple G,
If you have a You Tube Account, you can upload from your PC to You Tube.
Then just copy the You Tube link to here, there, wherever.

I posted it over in Red's, too, and it actually did the screen load.

I'm not sure why it sometimes shows just the hyperlink vs. the 'tube".

[Ninja108]

Evening Triple G!

[Triple G]

Good morning Ninja

[dynk]

Hi Trips......I did it again..

I was at the Mall at Rockingham Park today, and this salesman hands me a small packet of skin lotion. He tells me it's a free sample, then said: How many important ladies are in your life today? (smiling) None I said, I'm gay, you available.
Shut him right up, and the other salesman and woman customer all laughed.

[Triple G]

Good one, dynk.

[dynk]

The look on his face was as bad as the Olive Oil Salesman

[DonQuixote]

ZINGggggggaaaaaa Zingggggga Zing zing. lol

Lotion: $19.95/6 oz.
Look on the pushy salesman when you answer his pushy question that way? Priceless.


Triple G,
Do you have some additions to your garden zoo?

[dynk]

Looks like I may be visiting Hawaii next year

[Ninja108]

It's a great place to visit

[dynk]

My nephew is being transferred there

[Triple G]

Wecome to December everyone.

Don, all the scout ships returned to the mothership and have left.

[dynk]

It is snowing so it must be December Trips

[DonQuixote]

We had a dusting yesterday.
Currently 40F/4C, so we're back to green.

I have to work on getting bills paid down and some shekels saved for a trip to San Diego, or from there to here, depending on who's traveling.

[dynk]

We got about an inch of snow, swept it

[DonQuixote]

I don't know if we even got that much last night.

We're up to 47F/8C at 21:51EST.

[Triple G]

It's a nice 60F at 10:30PM

[DonQuixote]

We're at 48F/9C @ 12:24AM EST.

Hi, Triple G.

[Ninja108]

We've goten five inches or so but not all in the same night

[dynk]

We got an inch and today it will be in the 50s, so bye-bye snow

[Triple G]

Good morning guys. Heavy rain along the coast, but none here. 53F

[DonQuixote]

Good Morning.
48F/9C at 10:25EST.

In and back out again for awhile.

Ninja - we could get a bit playful with your post - this is a porn forum after all.
(Then, again, you could razz me for mine, too!)

[Lefty]

Donnie,

I am amazed you can remember as far back as last night.

As for Ninja...
you are still young so it could still grow. In the mean time,
take the inches you got and use all of them frequently, not
sparingly, Use is not abuse.

...Oh, you guys were talking about rain.... In that
department we got our NORCAL bootie kicked this last 4
days...double digits in many places.


5 creeks and 3 rivers are Full, (and then some for a couple)
Weirs work. Ck out the Truckee river fm there to Reno...our
friends on the east side of the hill are having fun...ask 'em.

[DonQuixote]

Hey, Lefty, welcome back.

The great electronic highway decided to let you back onto the lanes, did it?

[dynk]

We hit 54° today and sunny, it was nice and melted all of yesterday's snow

[DonQuixote]

We'll take the moderation while we get it.

[Triple G]

I would like to see some rain.
