    Sure. I've stored mine in the overhead compartment several times. Just take the top off and get your wife to store the other half.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Had to read this twice.  Thought the wife taking her top off was a distraction technique.

    On west coast this week. Laughing my @ss off at this one. Needed that.

    Frank hangs on the old forum. Living in Corpus Christi.  This was the first year he missed the Salado Egg Fest. A real great guy. One of the classic photos of the forum.

    @Mickey you mean, he did, hang out on the old forum. Looks like it's still down. I kinda figured we'd get an influx of old members, but haven't really noticed it.

    The old forum was up just a few days ago then down. For the past 30 days been down way more than open. Frank was talking as late as a couple of weeks ago when he said he would not make it to Salado. As to more of those guys moving over (influx of old members) I am guessing most are here that's going to come. When I left Facebook more we're going there and I look at Instagram and several are there. As well as the third small forum.

    You guys would have loved the 'secret' forum. When they first set this place up, they left the beta site accessible to the web. Was a part of the 'race day' sote that Rob was running. Must have tried some basic formatting and options and then bailed on it and started this place.

    No mods. They didn't even know anyone was on it. Good times. Made your Friday nights look like amateur hour. We all had moderator status too. 

    Someone finally squealed to the buffalo

    Yes to the third forum. I was ask the address and now can't find it. Anyone have it? I will keep looking and post if I can come across it. 
    @Darby_Crenshaw I thought I remembered you there (different handle)?

    the secret forum i am talking about had maybe five or six people on it. 


    Chubby was teaching me about the BGE's in those days. Did not know it existed. 

    Now that we are talking I have a question from lots and lots of years ago. 
    Old forum had a contest looking for the One Millionth post.  Got an email that mine was the winner but not to say anything till its official. The next day (for some reason I am thinking it was you) a picture was posted to the forum of a Large Egg in Christmas wrapping announced that person was the winner and had recived a Large Egg for the prize. Forum went wild but I got another email saying the post was a joke with the prize and millionth post. 
    Later was announced I won but no prize (forum had no money then as well). 
    I am just trying to remember who that was?
