Why, just the other day, as I was swimming in mid-ocean, I sez to myself, "Self...?"
...but I must have been asleep. These long trips are tiring, ya know.
WooHoo! WooHoo! WooHoo!

Boy, I too would be ticked if the donkey ham sandwich I had for lunch turned out to be fox meat. If you can't trust Walmart, who can you trust? :shock:

Photobucket is the easiest way.

As a Photobucket nerd, I read that to upload to Photobucket, look in the RH top corner. It shows: Customise your upload options. click on this.
Another window opens up with photo sizes.
800x600 seems to be the most popular size for forum posts.
Am I correct Ross and CW?
Cheers,
Jan.

I just opened Photobucket and I was still signed in and in the top center of the screen is an orange window labeled "upload". When I click that It opens a window that has a blue tab for choosing the pictures I want. When I click the blue tab It opens my library folder and I select "pictures" and that folder opens and I select the picture(s) I want and click open. Photobucket takes it from there. When the pictures are up loaded there is a tab underneath for labeling the picture. Next I click a tab "view uploads". I click that and my recent uploads are displayed as thumbnails with a list of 4 codes beside them. I always click "IMG" and get the blue highlite and I click copy. Then I bring it to the forum and paste it in the place.

A little boudin to mix things up as I practice uploading pictures. I am using an iPad so uploading is different. I am trying to figure out how to reduce pic size.

Meat vendors in Panama

Post by redzed » Thu Jan 16, 2014 05:33

Here are some fun pics I took today of meat vendors in a market in Colón, Panama. Unfortunately no smoked or cooked chorizo was to be found anywhere. So after five days, I am yet to taste Panamanian chorizo. Not much of a sausage culture here! And who says that meat needs to be refrigerated?

Yikes Chris! That is scary. No glass between the public and the product. No plastic gloves on the handlers. No hair nets? And the girl in the photo (public) is handling the meat. I wonder what she was handling before she grabbed the longanisa! Ooooo, can you say campylobacter? :roll: And what if she sneezes or coughs? :shock: We have instant staphylococcus areus! Suddenly, the FSIS rules aren't so bad eh? Thanks for posting the very interesting photos.

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

Reminds me of the two-story indoor market in Ecuador. The top floor was all meat and these photos could have been taken there. I also recall the bbq'd whole pigs hanging at the side of the dirt roads where the vendor would cut off a snack slice for you - no Clorox wipes for the knife there. I guess being near the equator the flies don't carry germs, eh.
