A quote from my wife. 
I suggested she pack her crap and go.

    So I told her "Take a time out... I don't wanna see your face for 3 days!"

    After the first day... nope, didn't see her

    After the second day... still didn't see her

    After the third day, the swelling had gone down enough that I was barely able to open one eye enough to see her.

    ...or for a musical interlude:

    But then I've "talked" with your wife so I KNOW you're kidding.

    My wife doesn't mind it, but at times ask can we have something other then smoked meats.  So we go out for food or take at.  Cooked our first meal on the stove top in months this weekend.

    After finishing extra thick cut, bone in pork chop leftovers, (that were still juicy and the best she had ever tasted ever.)
    I kind of joked, "Let's forget about remodeling our kitchen, and I will do all the cooking outside on the egg."
    MBW, without hesitation said "Deal!"
    Kind of frightened me, her answering so fast. Something sinister is at play here.....at least I get to spend more money on the egg environment!

    But let's be honest for a moment... she's right.  The Egg ISN'T perfect.

    For one, the design and construction of the bottom access slider could be a lot better.  We've proven in the past that even fully closed air is drawn in on the back (right) side because the parts aren't flush.  ...and I switched out the daisy wheel top for the SmokeWare one for more than one reason...

    Hummmm.... maybe I shoulda taken this to a new discussion thread.  Ya think the "guys behind the curtain" would quash a thread about things we'd like to see changed? B)

    If you must ask three times, the answer is definitely EGG.
