    Layed some gifted camo Mighty Skins on the Winter beater Yeti.  Kind of a PITA, but at least I know which one is mine at the base camp fireworks tomorrow night.


    The keep calm and aim for the heart, baseball,  beer buzz, and Rob Zombie like dragon rocker skins are pretty cool.

    @DoubleEgger Got my wheels spinning. I'll try that using my two different starters (one white and one wheat). I'll use the wheat starter for the rye. I'll post when I get to it. Thx brotha. Maybe I'll do it on the egg as well.

    @Focker I actually saw these a few weeks back but, my immediate thought was I'd eff up the application. And also wasn't 100% sure on the longevity/quality. Thoughts?
    This is the one I was gonna order. Funny you mentioned it. My first thought was Rob Zombie's El Superbeasto. :naughty:

    Just finished grilling some watermelon, pineapple and mango for a fruit salad at the pool tomorrow. Then made some 70/30 brisket bacon burgers with Serrano peppers, brown sugar and onion and topped them with some Canadian bacon I smoked today and cheese. Couple neighbors were over so made them some too. No finished pics cause we were drunk and hungry.

    o a really cool one.

    It's tricky getting the bubbles, seams, out.  Just takes time/patience.  The vinyl can be peeled back up easily without loosing the adhesive.  Did this many times, even on the corners, for a good fit.

    I think it's worth it.  They should hold up ok IMO.

    Back when I smoked weed,  room at my parent's house in the basement, I had a really old antique card table we would hang around and play spades and uecker on. Everyone who came by, climbing through my egress window, contributed artwork.  From Brooks and Dunn steer head and Fear Factory logos, to my favorite of my buddy Ryan doing Rob's live fast kill slow art off one of the albums.  Wish I still had it.  May have to dig through the garage at my dad's.

    @thatgrimguy we went thru that when our oldest was a toddler. He took so many antibiotics for ear infections it got to the point we had to physically hold him down and force it down his throat. Hope she forgets soon.

    I used to be able to school my son in anything video game related until about 2-3 years ago. Now I don't even try anymore. But if he wants to play Pong or Frogger or Pitfall, bring it on!

    @jeffwit me too. They see the whole screen and I see whatever I'm concentrating on. I got lucky. 

    However, this Braves/Marlins game at Ft Bragg is pretty cool.

    Just prepped, trimmed and seasoned a 22.5 lb whole pork shoulder for tomorrow's smoke.  Also cleaned and prepped the egg so there isn't much to think about in the morning, other than lighting it up.

    @Dyal_SC -  dang that is gonna be a manly cook.  And I'm with you about getting the prep work done the evening prior so it becomes a simple start but 22.5 lbs could be quite a protracted event.  Enjoy the cook and results.  Happy Birthday USA.

    I split it into two, plus after removing the skin and trimming, it was much lighter.  :) Hoping it turns out well.  It had a nice looking money muscle.

    I'm pacing myself-putting LEO on hold til after midnight EDT. At that time I will likely consume that last of PVW 20 year-old bourbon, never to own it again. Gotta see in Birthday 240.  Let the parties begin/continue.
