I'll tell you. In private!

I'm not brave enough to try blowfish more than once. Even when cut and served properly, if you eat enough, it makes your mouth feel tingly and a little numb.

Although I've always wondered, how much trial and error had to happen before they realized that there was a certain way to cut this fish to make it edible???

Not sure how Ra's testicles got tangled up in this, but strangely enough, I feel like they belong here.

Well, any sentence that has the words "blow" and "testicles" is just naughty enough that I don't object to being mentioned. ;p

Ra,
