Well... I have learned something: Sometimes you can make "Not a very good idea." mostly work with sufficient applications of brute force, but making sushi with brown rice really doesn't work very well. Brown rice just isn't sticky enough.
Sushi is such an odd proposition for someone who refuses to eat anything that even thought about swimming. But there are so many tasty things that can be put into a rice roll... Hence, Zig and I had what my Mom has lovingly termed "Ghetto Sushi."
Tonights sushi fillings were: spicy tuna (Canned tuna with mayo and chili sauce), ginger grilled chicken, green onions, red peppers, and cucumber. I probably would have used avacado too if I'd have it, but this was a last minute sort of effort - thus the brown rice and the lack of avacados.
With sufficient smashing, I *did* get the rolls to stay in one piece as far as the plate, but once it came time to dip them in the wasabi and soy, they totally fell apart. So... brown rice=No.
All in all, though, I have to admit dinner was pretty yummy, despite it's lack of cohesion.
(Zig gave me the *wierdest* look when he caught me taking a picture of my dinner.)
I also made a very nice vegetarian chowder, which I shall take to work for lunch today.

But that DOES look yummy. And it's funny you mention rice. I have a big bag of Nashiki sitting on my counter to be steamed with lunch.
