Elephant ear wrap

Sounds yummie Purdman :eek: ! Where did you run accross this stuff? Per Purdman's Durian fruit link:

The objection
The strong smell – if not stench – of the pulp represents the negative-side of the divine fruit and is a challenge is for the nose. A Durian has not only a pungent smell like rotten eggs or old Limburger cheese. No, the smell comparisons are much stronger. A Durian smells like:

"foul onions" / "like a overripe Harzer cheese"

"a congested waste pipe" / " a dirty toilet"

"a not emptied garbage bin"

"French custard conducted through a waste pipe"

"crushed garlic, mixed with Mediterranean cheese and seasoned with army socks"

"a fruit in a plastic bag that has been forgotten three weeks in the sauna"

"the diapers of a baby, that had diarrhoea two weeks ago and was not looked after".

That’s the reason why transport and consumption of the fruit is very often prohibited in southeast Asia especially in public buildings, hotels and airplanes.

Vietnamese couple bought the quick mart. I noticed they were open on Thanksgiving. I had plenty of turkey with all the trimmings and decided to take them an American Thanksgiving dinner. They were overjoyed. Then the lady pulls this Durian out from under the counter and told me she paid $50 for it. Told me I had to give it a try. She loped off the top, stuck a spoon in and pulled out a spoonfull of what looked like baby chit and gave me a mouthful. Godawful tasting stuff I ever ate. You know, being a beer drinker like I am, every time I burped for the next three days I tasted that dam Durian. Thats the story buddy. Give it a try next time your in Cambodia!
Purdman:eek:

Then we're in total agreement (except I wouldn't go so far as to say I'd kill someone over it).

To lenoxmjs: All PETA and tree-hugging references aside, I think the objections to elephant's-ear being used on a cue are born out of concern that elephants are being poached for their ears and left to rot. If you are sure that using the ears doesn't directly or indirectly lead to more poaching, than you can have your cue and enjoy it with a clean conscience. All I'm saying is that I'm not so sure that using the product doesn't cause more people to go out and do things Purdman would shoot them for, and it's your ethical duty to take that into consideration.

And I'm not sure who you're responding to with your hunting comments; nobody on here has objected to the kind of hunting you're talking about, at least not in this thread.

I didn't say I was gonna kill them. Maybe chain them to a tree next to the rotting carcus for a few days.:D
Peace, Don
