Im not sure if you are an ice skater or more familiar with that sport... however, in roller skating, the sit spins aren't as common anymore because they aren't worth the points that a heel, broken ankle or an inverted are worth. If you go to the world championships, you will see maybe one in the short program because it is required and then after that, you won't see much other than a ton of camel variation spins... not because maybe the skater doesn't want to do a sit spin, but because the point value isn't there. The sport has changed a lot in the past 10 years.

bergek2 The emphasis has definitely changed from the 80s and 90s and I realize the skaters must do what gives them the most points and what is appealing to the judges at the time. It just seems like sit spins are a part of free skating and it's odd not seeing them any more. But at least they are still required in the short program, as they should be.

TheIrishEnigma well you wouldn't cook a steak while it's still in a whole cow either so that's the dumbest analogy I've ever heard! I get what you're saying but I know when I go to the beach with friends we clean them as well as there's lots of people that think the guys etc ruin the taste.

I did notice. He does it the same way I do it. I've lived in San Francisco, Portland, Oregon, Bremerton, Wa and Juneau, Alaska and have caught crab in the ocean in all of those places. I've cooked crab both ways and prefer by far doing it this way. I don't like the idea of putting the crab into a cold water bath or rinsing off the gunk from the crabs insides as it also washes off the salt. Doing it this way eliminates the yellowish brown gunk from the meat. But I have a great idea......you do it the way you like it and I'll do it mine.

BTW.....I don't know where this guy lives but here in Oregon the limit is 12 per day per license with 3 pots per person. We generally set 3 pots for the boat and catch all we can use.

Toni Sloan Skate yes
