    Underway with the brisket preps for Father's Day.  Hope to be grounded enough to get some sliced pics on 6/19 ( a challenge if past performance is any predictor ;)  )

    Keep it in low earth orbit, you should and will enjoy both the journey and the delicious brisket on the back side.

    Hey everyone.  So yesterday I posted that I was messing with a wings gadget.

    The point was to get the same crispy wings off my egg that I get off the Weber performer.  In my bourbon induced joking, some may have taken me seriously that I was developing a product, but really I was poking fun at my need to tinker.  Anyway, I'm actually happy with the result.  Crispy wings, similar to raised direct, but with much more control.  The Vortex is a solid piece of metal, and I made one of those, but I like the results from perforated metal better, which is what I've used here.  Hope it gives others ideas of their own.

    Wings are Buffalo and Honey BBQ

    77 minutes into being "on-hold" with Tracfone, trying to move my number from my '07, 2G flip phone to a new LG smartphone.
    It's good to remember in this political season that the Biggest Lie of All Time is still "Your call is very important to us."  :anguished:
    Was on Hold 1 hr 45 minutes yesterday, had to hang up for dinner w/friends.  Been on hold today 4 hours 25 minutes so far today; I'd stacked up projects ('net work, catch up on magazines/reading, cleaned my camera equipment, installed software, etc) while sitting on the phone but I'm out of stuff to do and angry.  
    I could go with a iPhone 5/Consumer Cellular, but I'd be throwing away >7,000 unused minutes, pay 3x as much for the phone, and more than double my monthly costs.  
    I really, really hate Tracfone.  I should've been able to transfer my number/minutes from one phone to another on-line, in just a couple minutes. Idiots!!

    Just pulled up to the house. Spent the last 4 days in Auburn with my daughter, youngest son and grandchildren. Had a early Fathers Day for me.

    @Botch -  you have waaaaay more patience than me.  I would have blown a gasket after your first post.  The time value for you is likely getting close to equalizing any perceived benefits from your current carrier.  And will it get better down the road??
    BTW -  I would never go down the I-phone road.  Too much corporate control for simple 'ol me.  Good luck-

    I'm loading the Yeti 50 down with Bud in the glass bottle as we speak. It's on tonight and tomorrow.

    @SGH, did you finally decide to root for the more worthy football team in the state?
    spending 4 days in the Loveliest Village should have cleaned a lot of that Bama out if your system. ;)

    I did not. I wore the Alabama shirt that I'm wearing now the whole time that I was up there =)

    Inside of this Yeti is 48 of the finest Budweisers in the glass bottle that money can buy. Buried under 32 pounds of ice. 

    Indide of this fine RTIC cooler is 18 of the finest Budweisers in the glass bottle that money can buy. Buried under 20 pounds of ice.

    What's my point? I will be naked long before the sun sets today. If you would like to see it, feel free to swing bye my friends =)

    @SGH - Load neck to bottom with each bottle and you won't need to muster up the reserves.  You can power pack a cooler as I'm sure you are aware.  I'm sure you won't be disappointed that I won't be making a road trip visit this PM.  (The visuals are enough...) I am trying to not get too far into orbit tonight as I have a SRF (black only) brisket on the agenda for Sunday. 
    BTW- congrats on enjoying the early Father's Day.  And away we go!

    None of the ones that I have bought thus far have had it on them. I bought these just minutes ago and didn't see it on any of them.

    I can confirm that the past few hundred I have consumed have America on the can.   I am transitioning back to bottles in around a week or so-just as soon as SWMBO takes a hiatus for a while.   No worries, all good here.

    Thawing out a little ground mullet, Popeye mullet, sand trout and catfish to go with a few ribeyes that I have. Fish and steaks, two of my personal favorites.

    University of Kentucky head football coach Mark Stoops using the BGE to grill out for his offense. It will be for sale at the end of the season if he does not make it to a bowl. I will offer $350.00, for everything, and will pick it up.

    @YukonRon - Hope it is air-gapped off the table and I'm sure you would up the price with a certified signature ;)

    Not if he don't win. I would pay more if it had Nolan Ryan's signature. 
    Not a big fan of Stoops right now. Big talker, zero results.
