Thank you. its readers Dear Editor: In regard to recent stories that Big Brother Bill introduce to plans (reintroduce) the California Condor into Northern Arizona and Southern Utah, I would suggest that we stop fighting this action. As we should have learned from the new National Monument, when large blocks of votes from the radical environmentalists are involved we can not win. The thing about hitting your head against a brick wall is it feels so good when you quit. It also frees your attention and energy for fights you can win. However, I suggest that we make the best of a bad situation. If indeed species such as the California Condor, Colorado Squawfish, Blackfooted Ferret, Spotted Owl and others are indigenous to this area, we should be able to find references to these species in our ancestors journals and cook- books. If Big Brother Bill and his radical environmentalist cronies have their way, and they surely will, then 90 percent of San Juan County SANDUAtf THEATER D-- 3 Thursday, November 7 7:00 Mighty Ducks (PG) Stars: Emilto Estevez Island of Dr. Moreau (PG-1- 9:00 Stars ValKimef LAi ilihiif ll.r Friday, November 8 That Thing You Do (PG) A Tom Honks Stars Val & The Darkness (R) pet endangered species. When this happens jobs and food will be as scarce as Bills virtues. In this light I suggest that we search our ancestors journals to find out how they dealt with these long forgot- ten species. In that vein I offer the following recipe: Condor Courdon Bleu Preheat oven to 375. Pluck and clean bird. In a large bowl, combine 12 pound smoked ham, 12 cup blue cheese, 1 package cream cheese, one teaspoon each: oregano, basil, marjoram, and a pinch of tar- ragon. Stuff cavity of bird with this mixture. Place bird in roasting pan in oven and bake until tender. Serves six. Taste should be similar to Peregrine Falcon. Lets hear from other readers who have other equally appetizing recipes. Perhaps you could make it a regular feature. Yours for fine dining, George Kensley have been exhausted.
