The Japanese way of Bushido v. The Bananas way of Bush-eato

The title has nothing to do with the content. I just needed to get that 'bush-eato' out of my system... you know how that can be: you come up with something that you just can't wait to use. Waiting was never one of my strong points. If I could have a nickel now, it didn't matter to me that a dollar would have been available later.

With regard to my recent vacational stint, I offer the following two photographs. First:

This is a building at the indian casino. The public is not allowed in this building, except in the days leading up to Halloween, when they have an "indian casino haunted house" in here.

Now this next photo shows me at one of my finest hours. Not that it shows me, but it shows what I'm capable of. So hey! maybe I'm not that far off with my pride in the bananas way of bush-eato, because I did eat the whole thing...

When faced with an enormous meal, particularly one in a foreign country, I have to weigh the upside of having a picture of my gluttony against the downside of looking like the damned idiot taking a picture of his f-ing food.

"Gol-lee, Bertha," I imagine the other diners imagine me saying to my truck-sized wife back home in some trailer park, "They sure done got some tasty vittles in that there country! I ate it all, baby!"

I am happy to see that I am not alone in falling to the downside.

Because my wife won't allow me to photograph nude females, I am left with only this outlet for my photographically oriented talents.

In this camera-phoned digital age there is NOTHING that isn't being photographed, except maybe trailer parks and their inhabitants...

You know how some people fantasize about video-taping themselves having sex with Celine Dion? Someday I'm going to hire a videographer to follow me into Zen Buffet. There are orgies and then there are orgies...

I'm guessing your a meat and potatoes kind of guy. Is that prime rib?

Bert Bananas said...

Good guess. That is indeed prime rib and you could hear the echo of it's last moo...

While there is no vegetable on this plate, my appetizers were tuna and salmon sushi rolls, with cucumbers and avocado slices inside the seaweed wraps. Very healthy.

"Very healthy" crap...

The Prime Rib kicks ass. That's why I can eat it five nights in a row when I go golfing in Mesquite on vacation and the hotel's only charging $4.99 for a PR dinner. Even so-so PR kicks butt.

Bert, I've never seen you NOT eat the whole thing, -even what's-her-name...

My cholesterol just went up 20 points just looking at the picture!

You told me that camera was only for our security, and that it could not record anything. What gives?

Oh, celebrities. How many publicly released sex tapes will it take for you to learn? Remember when Kelsey Grammer was worried a tape of his got stolen? Yeah, no one wants to see you naked, Frasier. In fact, no one wants to see Frasier, either, so rest easy, old man.

You got some magnificent meat there mister.

I think your Bush-eato holds true to certain Bushido elements: the Shinto stoictisms when facing a worthy opponent such as a mean slice of meat and taters.
