Dia dhuit, Kinsman,
I see that you are man who understands the subtle and intricate art of
banter <g>

The pig was mercifully left entire for his long and happy life in a field
behind a tavern on a tiny feudal island until the time came for his
transformation into bacon.
Because I knew the pig well, the tavern-owner did not reveal the source of
the exotic bar meal he served me until there was nothing left but a grin
and a few traces something unnamable on my lips ;-)
Much as I would like to repeat the experience, even I have not the courage
to order some at the butchers <g>
