The V-8 Juice is SO GOOD!

[JSngry]

low sodium of course.

[Rooster_Ties]

Gack!! Hate the stuff. My wife loves the spicy variety, her daily juice with breakfast, and she has double on the weekends.

I just can’t do it.

Have you mixed it fresh goat blood? I find it adds a little extra kick. Plus it keeps the goats in line, especially the neighbor's. That one thinks just a little too highly of himself, that one does..

I hear you, V-8 tastes terrible!

You guys don't have nay goats around?

[Rooster_Ties]

No goats in our neck of the city, I’m afraid.

[JSngry]

Hey, I know a guy that can get you all the goat you want. What's your address?

Are there no Indian restaurants in the DC area? Goat curry, barbecue goat, V-8 is a juice, but goat is an always delight forever!

Or - cabrito.

Just passed half a dozen of them in my evening walk taking in a farmyard route. Poor beggars looked freezing cold in the Siberian winds we have today !

[JSngry]

The Halal business in these parts is pretty robust. All them goats don't pop up from wet toadstools, if you know what I mean.

[sonnymax]

Can't decide which I dislike more, V-8 or Moxie. 

[JSngry]

What is it that is turning you all off of the delicious intrinsicality of the V-8 juice. Is it the watercress?

I’ve had goat 2-3 (maybe 4?) times since I’ve been here in DC. Separate BBQ and Indian restaurants both spring to mind, maybe Ethiopian too?

Did you know that there are more Ethiopian restaurants here in DC than anywhere else in the entire US? — and more actual Ethiopians (and Eritreans*) in the greater DC metro — almost a quarter million!! — than anywhere else on the planet other than Ethiopia (and Eritrea*).

*Eritrea and Ethiopia most decidedly are not the same — but are quite closely related, ethnically but not culturally (or is that culturally but not ethnically? — I forget).  Anyway, don’t ever mix them up, as they’re not interchangeable (no matter how similar they are).

Back to goat — I’ve tried it 5-6 times in my entire life, but only with mixed success.  Sometimes ‘good’ — but just as often, not.

[JSngry]

You gotta get good goat to get good goat, if you know what i mean. Sourcing is critical!

[Rooster_Ties]

I guess I’m also more of bison guy.

[Chuck Nessa]

I buy the small cans of Spicy Hot every week.

[JSngry]

Because they are SO GOOD!

Ha - I know more than one who'd probably change their entire eating and drinking habits if that "V-8 juice" stuff were marketed over here.  
(You know - the ones who drool about Small Block Chevies, Flathead Fords, Y-Block Fords and Chrysler Hemis day in, day out when it comes to their rides.) 

[danasgoodstuff]

My favorite V-8, ok this one isn't mine but the one in my '62 Studebaker looks a lot like this only not so clean.

[JSngry]

So, all things being equal - goat or Studebaker?

[danasgoodstuff]

You should know by now, Studebaker is the G.O.A.T.!  (Along with Hank Mobley, of course.)

Did those hubcaps come with it, or were they after-market?

Like that paint job too!

Halibrand wheels were an option, rarely ordered so these may have been retrofitted.  I think the paint is factory, or close to it.  My Lark is close to that color, but it's definitely been repainted and was a different shade of green to start with.
