    Shouldn't only wine be in a "sideways" pic?

    Doesn't he send crap in on his iPad? Shouldn't gorilla glass stand up to Mogilla? Maybe he's so plastered he got confused and is using his iPad to wipe up the mess instead of paper towels. Poor naming choice on Apple's part, right CT?

    The anticipation is killing me!! I wanna see some chicken tossing or salad tossing or whatever is scheduled to happen...

    Do you realize what tossing salad is?

  • im alive but down for the count. no watermelons thrown (we did have a significant no-show. claims it was a back injury and even had a doctor's note but i know it was a swollen man-gina that kept him at home.) food was serviceable and drink plentiful. it got a little weird but thankfully we had several very young children show up to keep things on the rails. no rules (especially 38) were violated. i need an 8 hour nap

    I'm going to go ahead and apologize for the salad tossing remark. It was meant in jest, but it took a thread building up to a great party down an enitrely different road. Uncalled for. My bad.

    No requests for bail? No trips to the ER?

    What a let down... Potentially epic thread fail.

    Food was outstanding.  Seriously.  I thought it was one of your better better briskets but I did get the best part of it.  The yard bird was a huge hit too.  Mac and cheese, cobbler, Blue Bell ice cream...great spread.  Yes, all those little kids did keep things more wholesome than usual but that's not always a bad thing.  Case in point I was awake and functional before 8 AM the morning following a pool party with you.  That is a first.  Maybe we are finally growing up?  Nah...this was an outlier.  I am sure we'll prove that true on the beach trip in a couple weeks.  Thanks for having us!

    I had 6 bourbons after you left and I still feel normal. Is that OK? The house is in good shape, there is only 1 party cup in the pool and 2 beer cans in the yard. What the hell is happening to us????? It had to be all those kids. I've never had more under 3 year old kids in my house in my life. Thank god my parole officer didn't show up ;) . Good times brother. I feel the beach might be bad after this miid to moderate showing on our part. I believe pigs must be buried. Just because we can. I'll bring a shovel...........not for the pig.

    Glad everyone is moderately functional...I recall a beach fueled cook/adventure of around a year ago and it involved a pit and a pig ...don't know about the shovel...is this "Part II"?

    I hope you are kidding. if not, you need to grow a pair :)). I thought it was hilarious and added a certain "flair" the thread. You are welcome to throw prison humor in to my threads any time. Now as for Travis and his "rule 38"..................let's just say that got a little weird

    That was a different, yet equally as dangerous crew. I was hung over for a week after that one.This one has an equal chance of going south. @lakewade has vowed to go down a day early so he can "wake up and start drinking" on the official first day of the trip.

    @Girl_on_Grill-Top marks for staying on the "high ground".  I'm sure keeping such decorum can present a challenge but good for you to stay above the fray.  No doubt the upcoming beach adventure will present a whole new set of challenges...or opportunities :)

    I had fun watching this unfold... It's just the latest Egg Opera, As the Egg Turns. Glad the food turned out great, no one got hurt, bourbon was consumed. Can't wait to read what you Egg savants come up with for the 4th.
