    Went to Costco today and bought another prime brisket. While there, the Traeger guy was there, hammering the BGE the audience standing around. He stated Traeger could do anything a BGE could do. I asked about searing. 
    Then he changed subjects and said with BGE you have to do a ton of work to cook with it each time you cook. I asked if having to rework the feeder each time you cook, if at al,l could be used as a comparison.
    Traeger makes a fine product I am sure, I just hate it when they imply people that use the BGE are not real BBQ cookers.
    effem.

    Hard to argue with success. Looking forward to what else ends up on your piece of engineering there.

    A very touching story my friend. So sorry to hear of the loss of your friends son. This is one of those things that I always hate to hear. Glad that y'all was able to get together and have a good of time as possible under the circumstances. You are a great friend and a great person.

    Way to be there for your friends.  That has got to be the most difficult thing for a parent to deal with.  Sounds like you achieved your objective and I'm sure it was very much appreciated by all.

    Was it yours or did you just replace a random powerstrokes alternaror?

    Yeah #9 is next year. This will be a better class than the Anthony Davis class that won it all. I have to go to Indiana tomorrow and pay up on a gambling debt, dropping off a effing 2007 Cab. Of all the teams to lose to, effen IU. Bright side, it was not Duke or Louisville.
    The team that beat UK will destroy UNC. Duke has won their last game this year, beating such a massive powerhouse like "Yale," I mean, really? How can you not laugh?

    Agree 100%.  Kansas this year.  Next year, it's ours to loose.  40-0.  It sucks having to set all the records doesn't it?  GO CATS!

    Yeah, the only records we break are ours. That is what it is like at the very top.

    Mine.
    Wife was on her way to an appointment with all 6 kids and it shut down.  She was able to get off to the side of the road.  I recently replaced the batteries with Optima Red tops, and after she described what it was doing, I stopped at Napa, grabbed an alternator and replaced it.

    @YukonRon There is nothing like doing something special for someone special. That's what this hobby is really all about!  Being there for someone right when they need you with a simple gift of food and fellowship. There is nothing better.

    Finally my wife and I came back with a car! 3rd trip to Chicago in the last month and a half. My wife has always wanted a Saturn Vue (don't ask me why) so much of my time has been looking for the last current model 2008-2009 Saturn Vue. (She has owned 3 previous Saturn's) After two failed trips to Chicago she goes, "Vues are cute, but I guess I can look at something else". Thank you!!! So I came across a few different smaller suvs. Showed her some options than came across one particular suv that was of course in Chicago once again. She was game for another road trip. Low and behold we made the trip and came home with it. Nothing super fancy but a vehicle that we don't have to make payments on. It's a Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. Little 4 banger that gets between 26 and 31 mpg. We got it in manual transmission. It should make it a little more fun to drive. I think it looks a little more aggresive than the "cute Vue" she has wanted. Any vehicle beats her banged up Buick Regal with a rusted out sway bar that leaks oil like a pig. Happy to see her happy and a car that makes her proud.
