    @TigerTony, it had been too long since we scooted over to NO, and we appreciate the hospitality.  We will make sure to come back soon, and take in more of the city.

    @SGH In the corner shot with all of the charcoal, one of these things is not like the others. What do you use Kingsford for?

    Looks like you guys had a great time (& a lotta work that probably isn't obviously apparent in these pics)!

    As for a caption for that photo with SGH, what comes to mind is:"Cen-Tex, what do you mean you put a SRF Wagyu packer in here??"

    I use the Kingsford just to bring Unit 1 online and up to temp. Once she settles in I feed her wood pretty much from then on.

    I bring Units 2 through 6 online the same way. Kingsford is very cheap. Wood is not.

    Alas, I am tired.  I'll just say the footage is something I thought wasn't filmed.  Will come out later.  Nite, y'all.

    @SGH - I dunno.  The audio was a little fuzzy.  I must admit, my friend, that I'm not as acute a listener as I am when my batteries are fully charged.  We'll subject it to forensic analysis later this week. I'm wore out.

    I just got home myself with Unit 6. Tired as all get out. Have a good one my friend. Oh I picked up a sack of oysters for supper tomorrow night! Man those things were awesome. Angie is making me cook her some.

    Alright buddy.  We learned the secret yesterday with grilled oysters - that's a big deal.  I think we can match or even beat Dragos.  Take care of Angie.  sleep well.
