If you are not prepared to make some of the best friends you've ever had, who you will (possibly) never meet,...please leave this site immediately,...and never return. If you continue to visit here, you risk become friends with some of the best people on the planet. If this is not in your game plan, then please reconsider your purchase of this wonderful product.[p]At 56 years of age, I never dreamed of making new playground friends. However, in spite of the odds, the acquisition of the BGE has certainly changed my course in life. The folks on this Forum are some, if not the most, genuine humans I've ever met in my entire life. What means the most to us has obviously drawn us together, and that should tell us something about who we associate with. [p]During my brief visit to this Forum, I've made friends that I would never have dreamed of. These are people who I would have never, otherwise, had the opportunity to meet. For that I am extremely grateful. They will offer cooking tips, recipes, and emotional support when they feel you need it. It is unprecidented, and virtually undescribable.[p]So, if this is not what you seek this is the wrong place. You may get phone calls from Nature Boy, WooDoggies, Spring Chicken, Max, CWMike, ChefWil, YB, Wise One, Bente, AZRP or others too numerous to mention....But if you get a call from Chubby, please make sure that you have purchased extra minutes.[p]I love this place.[p]LR

    Lawn Ranger,
    geeez, sniff, sniff...guess I don't count, since no mention, but I called you once BUT we have "talked" via email often...[p]All kidding aside, I fully agree! We, as fellow eggers have many, wonderful cyber friends on this board who we probably will never meet in person, but hey...that doesn't make "us" any less of a friend!

    RRP,[p] Hey I gave him a big old bottle of Thousand Island Dressing and I ended up in the 'too numerous' category.. [p]I turned on my 'divert chubby to land line' filter. It pays to work for a cell provider :)[p]

    RRP,
    Man, I knew I couldn't name enough, but you and Celtic are for sure way up there.....Where do you start or begin? Speaking of starting, I believe the Naked Whiz certainly ranks close to the top. Just goes to show that there are way too many to mention. BTW, I love my gasket! :o)[p]My best to Pat![p]Mike

    Lawn Ranger,[p]I talked to Chubby for so long that I had to switch phones because the battery died! lol[p]I have Max on speed dial for emergencies like "torpedo shaped turkeys" and whatnot. :)[p]I was amazed at how many people were shocked that we would travel all the way from Sitka to Waldorf just for a one day cooking fest. They would ask - so you really came all the way here just for this? The only answer I had was - of course! These are our friends - why wouldn't we be here?[p]

    Morning Lawn Ranger:[p]Very well put for a Texas boy! I am glad to say we have met (in person & on-line) many wonderful people we now call friends that we would have never known if it wasn't for discovering the Egg world. Even though some of the are, shall we say, a bit EGGCENTRIC (that may be why they are so much fun to be around).[p]Have a GREAT day!

    mollyshark,[p]I like the sound of the scotch too. Just got a sweet bottle of Johnnie Walker Green Label for my 40th. Might have to crack that baby.
    Did you ever make that mango chutney? Had some yesterday with some butter chicken and I wondered if you had ever gotten around to trying that recipe.[p]Cheers,[p]John

    AlaskanC,[p]Hey....here's an idea. Since you flew all the way to Waldorf and to Atlanta...and since soooo many people have commented on Alaska from your beautiful pictures and how they need to get up there...why don't we have a Sitka Eggfest? That'd be a beauty! Whos in?[p]Cheers,[p]John
