There is this fondue place in Saratoga, CA (Part of San Jose, Silicon
Valley)

They offer all kinds of different meats including Alligator and Buffalo. I
have to say, the Buffalo meat was MUCH tastier than regular ol cow meat.
Its also supposed to be very healthy for you. Healthier anyway.

If you get a chance, check out La Fondue in Saratoga.

Wow, bison meat is expensive! This e-bay ad
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4357244827&ssPageName= MERC_VI_RSCC_Pr2_PcY_BIN_Stores
has somebody asking approx. 10 bucks a pound! If we figure he's trading
at retail for a $15,000 clapped-out Cessna 152, that's only 3/4 ton of
meat! And here I was thinking I didn't have a big enough basement to
hold the necessary freezers....

What's a live adult bison go for? The National Bison Association says
they have a wider diet than cattle.

If they eat honeysuckle and sumac shoots maybe I could support a couple in
my back yard instead of buying all those freezers.

But I'll have to turn you down on the potatoes, corn, and herd of Angus --
you can't get a semi down my back alley, and I'm not sure the wife would
agree anyhow.

Interesting marketing idea. What would you bet that he'd value his bison

meat at full retail and value your airplane at less than wholesale?

We're about to have a cattle sale here Aug 27. All registered Angus,
about
175 head. I'll trade all of them for a new Bonanza A36.
OR
If your backyard isn't fenced, I'll give you the potatoes from 40 acres,
about 40 semi loads.
OR
If you need corn, how about 450 acres worth, over 90 semi loads.

Heck, I'd even keep your names a listed insured on the Bonanza. )
