Apparently I've got to get to 98kg to be considered healthy weight. Well, I'm only 3.5 kilos off. Apparently I'll be there in a couple of weeks.

According to this site I'm on I'm 1.9kg shy of my ideal weight. Hrm, I wonder if that accounts for muscle mass.

He shoots arrows. If they could take him down with bullets the show would be over by the first few episodes.

Like I say, it's the distances, not the inaccuracy. Just have him be a bit further away.

It's quite well scripted, though. I'll give it that.

I'm sure I can find at least a few I dislike enough to cook. We just taste so good!

Seriously though, it's not a real barbecue without prawns.

I tend to side with atheism in some of the points regarding religion but fuck... there are a few that take things a bit too far in their claims. Fuck, the generalizations are so many. It bothers me.

I've been meaning to ask you, do you call them all prawns or do you refer to only the jumbo shrimp as prawns? Every time I see the term used, it seems that they're cooking what I know as jumbo shrimp but you probably know better.

I call them prawns, personally, but that's potentially a throwback to my Singaporean upbringing where prawn is used exclusively.

I live in a relatively affluent neighbourhood with affluent friends, relatively inland. Prawn just isn't very popular in my group, and even if it was I have a suspicion a lot of them will refer to it as they know it from American or European culture.

However, that might be because we only really have 'jumbo shrimp' here. I don't know if it's an Asian thing, but 'jumbo' shrimp are the standard. We just don't cook the smaller ones very often - plus, it's harder to cook them.

I've seen the small ones, I just don't know how you would cook them in either an Australian or a Singaporean setting unless it was a restaurant cooking in quantities.

I see. I was curious. So you would say it depends on the area whether that word is going to be used more often than not?
