			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve seen <a href="http://www.verygoodtaste.co.uk/uncategorised/the-omnivores-hundred/">this meme</a> a couple of places, most recently at the excellent D Magazine <a href="http://sidedish.dmagazine.com/2008/08/28/foodie-quiz-omnivore-hundred/">Side Dish blog</a>, and I thought I would finally play along.<br />
I&#8217;ll quote the rules from <a href="http://www.verygoodtaste.co.uk/uncategorised/the-omnivores-hundred">the original source</a>:</p>
<div class="quote">Below is a list of 100 things that I think every good omnivore should have tried at least once in their life. The list includes fine food, strange food, everyday food and even some pretty bad food &#8211; but a good omnivore should really try it all. Don&#8217;t worry if you haven&#8217;t, mind you; neither have I, though I&#8217;ll be sure to work on it. Don&#8217;t worry if you don&#8217;t recognise everything in the hundred, either; Wikipedia has the answers.<br />
Here&#8217;s what I want you to do:<br />
1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.<br />
2) Bold all the items you&#8217;ve eaten.<br />
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.<br />
4) Optional extra: Post a comment here at <a href="http://www.verygoodtaste.co.uk">www.verygoodtaste.co.uk</a> linking to your results.</div>
<p><strong>1. Venison</strong> &#8211; (sausage is best)<br />
2. Nettle tea<br />
<strong>3. Huevos rancheros</strong><br />
<strong>4. Steak tartare</strong><br />
<strong>5. Crocodile</strong> &#8211; deep fried, tastes just like crocodile.<br />
6. Black pudding<br />
<strong>7. Cheese fondue</strong><br />
8. Carp<br />
9. Borscht<br />
10. Baba ghanoush<br />
<strong>11. Calamari</strong><br />
12. Pho<br />
<strong>13. PB&amp;J sandwich</strong><br />
14. Aloo gobi<br />
<strong>15. Hot dog from a street cart</strong><br />
16. Epoisses &#8211; I&#8217;ve had and enjoyed Camembert.<br />
17. Black truffle &#8211; would gladly try some if not for the $$$$<br />
<strong>18. Fruit wine made from something other than grapes</strong> (Plum)<br />
<strong>19. Steamed pork buns</strong><br />
<strong>20. Pistachio ice cream</strong><br />
<strong>21. Heirloom tomatoes</strong><br />
<strong>22. Fresh wild berries</strong><br />
23. Foie gras<br />
<strong>24. Rice and beans</strong><br />

Lena Headey (Sarah Connor) is quite easy on the eyes, too, and doesn&#8217;t make me feel like quite so much a dirty old man:<br />

I liked the show last season, despite a slight tapering in quality toward the end. I might blog some more about it after the new season premieres on September 8.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m still alive. Summer is always a bad time for blogging for me. Something about the structure of the kids&#8217; school year helps me write more consistently.<br />
We recently returned from a two-week vacation in Colorado. High point (literally): I bagged a <a href="http://www.14ers.com/">14er</a> &#8212; Quandary Peak &#8212; with my two sons. That makes two Colorado 14ers in my life now (I climbed Red Cloud Mountain when I was 15).<br />
More later.</p>
