Doesn't that cheese make you high or something too? I remember seeing something on that, or something like that.

some random blog i found wrote:Pecorino cheese is left out in the sun so that nearby barn flies can deposit their larvae into it until it is home to a seething mass of larvae or maggots. Now here's the reason for this crazy behavior - the enzymes produced by the maggots cause the cheese to ferment which in turn breaks down the hard fats and results in a slimy, pungent, rotten tasting goo which is reputed to refresh parts of the body that other cheeses cannot reach, hence it's popularity as a centerpiece at local Sardinian weddings.

The cheese is normally kept covered but at the point of service it's best to pop on a pair of sunglasses because the little blighters leap out from the cheese and end up everywhere.

Some Sardinians who say it's the cheese they're after and not the maggots place the brown lump into a paper bag and wait patiently till the noise of maggots popping against the side subsides thus indicating that they have asphyxiated themselves - a bit like waiting for popcorn to stop popping I suppose.

I just had to read a good 35 pages to catch up on this thread.

To reply to various things I read while doing so:
I think I had the nerdyest New Year's Eve out of most of you. I watched firefly and macgyver, drank non-alcoholic wine, and lit sparklers.

To the person who saw Serenity: YAY! I got both the movie and the novelisation for christmas. I think soon I'm going to start talking like them.

and that cheese sounds really gross.

i watched lord of the rings with my dad on new years.
*and drank root beer.

edit: i totally forgot! my best friend and my other friend's mom dropped in, and me, my parents, and the two of them all did a puzzle. of a dragon. that glows in the dark.

holy whoa that is some disgusting-sounding cheese RIGHT THERE.

and my new year countdown was beyond nerdy--i spent it in a car counting down with the news reporters on the radio. then i drank ginger ale and sat back and felt no different.

I watched the Magnificent Seven on New Year's Eve.

Then today I watched The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

Overall it's been a very productive two days.
