Here's mine.

It's 2:00 in the afternoon.  My wife is out of town, so I'm drinking Cuba Libres and sharpening knives in my Man Cave.  Does life get any better than this (outside of bed)?

    For some reason, the fidelity of older pics I have on Photobucket has gone way down…   X(

    LOL - just wish I could learn how to up load more than one picture at a time using this iMac and well as how to insert pictures in order - these are jumbled up!

    Well that seems to be the only thing "jumbled up".  My shop looks like a bomb went off in it.

    @VI What's up with the little Weber outside the cave, is he In time out?

  • @Ksoko  I keep my Vespa at the Harley dealer to show it what it needs to become when it grows up.

    @Tuttle871 I haven't used the little Weber since I got my Mini, but I keep it in reserve for an eventual overload.  I did just get in my rotisserie for my big Weber.  I am going to use that for the Thanksgiving Turkey.  I'll use my large Egg for Tamale Dressing and other stuff.

    I'm not an exclusive Egg whore.  I use whatever device I think will work best with the task at hand.  And, that includes cooktop, oven, microwave, Weber, Sous Vide, deep fryer, propane turkey fryer, crockpot, Mini Egg, and Large Egg.

    VI -  I'm not an exclusive egg whore either.  Have the rotisserie for one of my kettles too and really wish there was a rotisserie for the egg.  Have you tried Stubbs briquettes? Usually available at Lowes and far better than Kingsford.  Unlike their lump,  Stubbs briqs are very good.  Whatever binders etc they use in Kingsford smelled awful.

    Thanks, Cal.
    I'll go to Lowes and get some Stubbs.

    I read an interesting story on Kingsford though.  Henry Ford noticed that he was having a lot of wood left over from making Model T Fords, and thought there might be a market for charcoal.  So, he made a company with a relative named....  Kingsford.

    Thanks - I made those before the plastic ones were so commonly and economically available. Besides being of wood allowed me to install a switch on the underneath side of each which when opened tripped a 24 volt relay and kicked on the central vac.

    I fine that by opening a new page in "Note" and placing from photobucket in the correct order then copy that into the forum.

    Thanks, Mickey, but obviously I have far more to learn about this iMac. How do you keep anything open while adding something to another work in progress? I have to shut every thing down before moving to the next thing and then editing back and forth.
