i've been wondering...
why is it always "beef"?
as in "blahblah has beef with blahblah..."
why can't it be chicken?
or veal?
or fish?
or lobster?
or for my vegan friends, broccoli?
but no.
beef has some kind of monopoly when it comes to drama.
maybe it's about time we gave other meats a chance:
"sheesh. there's always some kinda mutton goin' on..."

Hmm... I would say that I guess out of all the meats, Beef/cows cause the most problems in life. i.e. you remember my lactose intollerance? Let's not forget cholestrol problems from FAT steaks. The only benefit of beef is that it's full of iron, as in stuff iron knuckles are made of :P

But really, the term came from feuding farmers hiding tainted cow meat in each other's barns.

Hmm, I never read to the end of your comment Jerry, until now. So is that where "Mad Cow Disease" comes from?
