Didn't Krucoff go to Maryland?
Gothamist: Pig Roast In The East Village This Sunday, becoming increasingly popular among the wrong sort.
Oh, you're in for a treat. It's quite common in the rural south. I've never been to one, though I have a cousin in Georgia who throws a massive pig-roast every winter for half the county he lives in.
"Pick the pig", it's called. The meat gets so tender you can just pick it off with a fork.
pig-pickin.
i live in maryland. ask how come they aren't serving the good stuff...i.e. lots of fresh seafood.
The pig sounds great, and you should definitely eat crabs in Maryland -- soft shell, crab cakes, in the shell. If the crab house uses newspaper for tablecloth, that's a GOOD sign.
Be afraid, Maccers--be VERY afraid.
You're south of the Mason-Dixon line, going to a pig roast...
RUN!
Oh. I'm not going.
Good. Usually there's some kind of cross-burning associated with this event--particularly down around St. Mary's County.
Har-har. Now all ye Southerners can direct your bile at me.
You should go. You should go to everything, even if you're not invited.
A friend of mine is roasting in his "flat" in "London". He says the English don't do air conditioners. Is this true, or is he already drunk at 12+5 = 5:00 PM?
that is correct. There is no AC in London since it is rarely required. Also London apartments generally only have one electricity socket per room so it's rather a nuisance.
There is no AC up North as it is never required due to the grimness of it all.
Sunday night, 2am, it was 80F. That's too darn hot for Englandshire.
You should go, Maccers. It's not often people up North do cool stuff like roasting an entire pig. The meat is usually very tender and the guest of honor gets to take home the tail. I prefer the ears, myself. 
Well, my bank's offices in London are frozen with AC goodness in the summer, but I think that's just the Japanese trying to thwart infrared scanners so as not to reveal their diabolical schemes.
Japanese? Diabolical?
Nooooooooo, never!!
As long as it's a roasting party, and not a pig-porkin' party, a la Deliverance. Can you say suuu-eh?
Where in Maryland? That makes an enormous difference, but I suppose you've already turned down the invitation.
Who told you about St. Mary's County, boy? Ha... we can get into some fun down here, don't you worry. A pig roast is pretty common around here because of the large Filipino community. I'm not a part of it, but I've been to the roasts before and they are good....
