Yum Yum Yum...

After our recent venture to the Pacific Northwest, we received word from our friends at feedyourfable.com that there was a "restaurant" in Minneapolis, Minnesota that had the perfect recipe - some crazy sausage concoction - for attracting the elusive assacobra.

The name of this "restaurant" is Hell's Kitchen (not to be confused with the show of same said name). It sounded suspect from the beginning, but, as you are well aware as loyal followers of our sometimes misguided adventures, we are always up for an expedition, so, after a little research, we found ourselves on a plane, then a train, and even an automobile.

We adamantly admit... Minneapolis seems like such an odd place to find a recipe like this because there hasn't been a reported sighting of an assacobra since 1963. Regardless, we were there, so we headed to Hell's Kitchen the first morning. Like most people in this industry, they had to make ascertain that we are legitimate before giving us the sausage. They made us sample the recipe and, as it turns out, it's okay for human consumption.

In the end, it turned out to be a scrumptious sausage loaf. Apparently, they take the sausage from a bison and put it in bread. Seriously? Who would of thought that it would be that easy? Sounds a little odd, but, given some of the things we've eaten in the past, it was... yum yum yum.

We crated up 50 pounds of it and are having it shipped directly to the Pacific Northwest for our continuing scientific research and are hoping that it does not decompose like Bigfoot's body did earlier this summer.

Side Note: On the evening prior to our return to Las Vegas, we confirmed a sighting of a royal oriole. We acknowledge that unfortunately this isn't as elusive of a species as our other discoveries and eradications, but felt that it was critical to note. For those not privy to the species, it's slightly different than a true oriole and recognized by it's incoherent squawks and blue and white colors (in addition to traditional orange and black). Typically, it does not attempt to hide it's presence, which has made it easier to eradicate for those of us in the Public Safety field.

Green Polar Bears?



Although I've chased the green haired pandas of Southern British Columbia, until now I've never heard of the green polar bears of Japan! What are the odds?

I do think it's peculiar that they believe the green color is from "algae". From our experience, the only reasonable explanation is that the polar bears have crossbred with long-haired iguanas, non-indigenious to Kenya.
