Thanks for stopping by. You should leave me more comments. I need stimulation, you know? In Oklahoma, we called handgrabbing 'noodling.' For some reason, 'handgrabbing,' as a term, makes me blush. Hmm, I'm odd. Speaking of odd segués, and pigs, meet me in New Orleans sometimes. Dinner at <a href="http://www.cochonrestaurant.com/" rel="nofollow">Cochon</a> is on me. We seem to be proof that <i>all</i> the cool people aren't moving to the South. Hey, Steve. Thanks for stopping by. You should leave me more comments. I need stimulation, you know?

The host had to go out and hunt for something. His bounty was then turned into a meal by the chef at some four or five-star restaurant in New Orleans. So it was Mike Rowe's "Dirty Jobs" meets The Food Network. I loved it. One of the better episodes was when the host had to hunt down a feral hog. (My other favorite was when he had to participate in Mississippi Handgrabbing.) And don't tell the Yanks we don't all spend our time walking barefoot, banging goats and hunting pigs. Maybe if they believe it, they'll quit moving to the South in droves. My favorite show on the now-defunct network Turner South was “Off the Menu.” The host had to go out and hunt for something.
