Not only was it in the '60s this morning in Oxford Mississippi. Apparently they have a beer fairy.

PS: old enough to remember the 1982 train car full of beer derailment near campus.

Surprised they let him talk that long with a logical statement. Typically they talk over someone making any rational point.

Even if I were inclined to eat grasshoppers, what's the difference in density?

My wild guess is that a pound of beef fits in your hand, and a pound of grasshoppers fills a paper grocery bag

EDIT: Found a reference that an adult grasshopper weighs about 2.5 grams. So about 180 grasshoppers per pound.

Another reference says an average steer yields about 570 pounds of meat.

One steer = 103,500 grasshoppers.

In the wild, you might find 2 grasshoppers per square yard, or about 4800 per acre. So about 21 acres to support the same weight in grasshoppers as you get from a steer on one acre of wheat.

Me too. Some guys from my dorm went out to the wreckage and grabbed a few cases before the cops chased them off.

Wow…just wow.

Look at the faces on the CNN panel as a huge truth bomb is dropped.
