Man! That IS a lot of BULL!
Cloned Mammoths ping.............
“the testicles of a bull named Yasufuku,”
BWAAAA! Maybe I’m just pronouncing it wromg!
Sometimes there is a reason why things go extinct.
They're talking about Kobe beef.
What is Kobe beef?
Kobe beef is a truly high-end luxury. Cuts of this meat are upwards of $100 bucks a pop, much of this cost due to the slow, organic manner in which the cattle are raised. Kobe beef comes only from a Japanese black-haired breed called Wagyu cattle ("wa-" means "Japanese," and "gyu" means "cattle." Considered the foie-gras of beef, Kobe is so highly marbled that the fat seems almost as prominent as the lean. However, this is the "good," unsaturated fat, and well worth the occasional indulgence.
What makes it so special?
Kobe beef, or the Wagyu cattle, are fed organic grains, Japanese beer, and even sake mash. Some Japanese farmers reportedly even brush sake on their cattle's coats, in the belief that this will soften their skin and improve the quality of the meat. While this concept may be debatable at best, it illustrates the care and respect given to the cattle as they are being raised.
How does Kobe beef taste?
When it's cooked right, a filet mignon of Kobe beef is utterly transcendent. Juicy, buttery, with a melt-in-your-mouth quality that puts even prime rib to shame, Kobe beef epitomizes luxury food. You shouldn't even need to use a steak knife; it's that tender. There is a subtle sweetness to Kobe beef that makes even sirloin burgers perfect without ketchup.
Is it hard to cook?
In a word, yes. Kobe beef's rich flavor comes predominantly from its high fat-to-lean ratio, and overcooking a Kobe steak or Kobe short ribs will dry it out. Kobe beef is expensive, so be careful! If the fat melts off, you've cooked it too long, and it will be tough. Don't treat a cut of Kobe beef like a regular steak on the grill; flip it fast, and get it off the grill. Alternatively, sear it quickly on an iron skillet. Kobe beef is so delicious that it really doesn't need any seasoning. But if you insist, a little salt and pepper before the grill, or a brushing of soy sauce after searing it, can serve to enhance the flavor.
I had some Kobe beef in Japan back in the mid '80s.
Overrated.
As in:
“I’m talkin’ to you buddy! Cut the bull! Yasufuku!”
While the cloned bull might be good for beef, I hear that mammoths taste like chicken. And we’ve already got plenty of chickens.
baddest bull in history by far.
I bet our Sarah Palin could take a mammoth down and field dress it it in no time :>)
“Yasufuku’s testicles were frozen for a decade...”
Buuuurrrr!
And for over a decade, some Japanese scientist has been hanging out in bars using “I have the testicles of a bull named Yasufuku” as his pickup line.
They talkin' about Little Yellow Jacket? Yikes, they'd better be careful....
This announcement should be sent to the guy who was hanging, for 15 or 20 nminutes upside down and butt naked from the chait lift in Vail (Blue Sky Basin) last week. He even made O’Reily last night!

Skier Falls Through Chairlift
VAIL - A skier was uninjured after falling through a raised chairlift seat in Blue Sky Basin at Vail Resort Friday.
The man, 48, was caught on the chair and was suspended for approximately seven minutes. His fall through the chair snagged his pants leaving the man naked while hanging upside down.
Lift operators immediately stopped the lift and Vail Ski Patrol was called to the scene.
Lift mechanics were able to reverse the lift approximately 10 to 12 feet, at which point the man was released.
He was not injured.
Whoa....
