!Gator tail is good stuff!

The tail actually does.
When I was a teen we made hogshead cheese. That was a lotta work! Came out like bologna but better.
I was thinking more like tacos. Hogsheads have a lot of meat and its all very tender.

Especially the cheeks. Fish cheeks are the best part of fish IMHO. Mike

I worked in Dutch Harbor for 5 years and had a girlfriend from El Salvador once. I've eaten my share of halibut cheeks.

Fishing? Halibut cheeks are the tastiest part. Lightly fried. Mike

I worked a season and a half unloading the boats. The company I worked for also owned the Grand Aleutian Hotel and I ended up working the desk and night audit jobs there.

I worked pound nets for years and did a couple of trips on scallop boats. Blue crabbed during the season and oystered in the winters. Ran a deep sea boat for a few seasons. I loved it all. If I was younger I'd go back to some of it. Didn't have the luxury of hotels, just hard, but to me fantastic, satisfying work. Mike

Dutch Harbor hums 24/7.
I endured three seasons of the Deadliest Catch...cast...crew. Drunk Samoans and others. Never seeing the sky..
I might go back if my Ma gets better.

Not me brother. Scallops was dangerous enough for me. Those dudes are crazy. I've put up with makos and marlins coming into the boat wanting to mess us up, cobia trying to break our legs when brought in too green while tearing the deck up, but what those guys do is nuts. Mike

I remember three of Bill's crew coming in in heels and make-up one night. I suggested they'd been out fishing too long.
Theater...they were filming...supposedly someone lost some sort of bet...I got cut...thbbbbt!

LMFAO!!! What a trip living through that must of been. Lucky you. I kinda had the same experience in the 70's when I was racing Oceangoing Sailboat. Talk about ballys folks. I raced against Ted Turner and a bunch of top notched world wide racers. Saw and went through some crazy stuff.
In one race from St Pete. to Nassau we lost two boats sunk on the Great Bear rocks, trying to short cut it and got sunk. We took water down into the cabin at the finish line with a spinnaker knockdown. The picture was poster in SI.
Once tied up and squared away, 30 gal. trash cans filled with various rum drinks and cup holders lined the dock. Of course bikini clad girls were everywhere. We were all young, in great shape and had hormones raging. Early 70's, no HIV, most girls knew to protect themselves from getting prego. It was a great time for both sexes to be alive. Mike

I get queasy if it's shorter than 800 foot or so thanx!
I have a Sports Illustrated story.
When I lived in Florida I worked for Kim Alexis. I was sort of a gopher and did all kinds of stuff including caring for her exotic animals.
Her husband's family, at that time, owned half of downtown Jacksonville Fl.
She looked like this then and she was very nice...maybe a few years older than me.
