@Sea2Ski and @weberwho get the awards today for properly disposing of hazardous chemicals. Strong work!

Waking up a little loopy.  Was involved with a fundraiser for the local food bank. Long story short, it started raining about 1 for the whole day (really weekend) event. Picnic started at 6 for 500 participants. About 400 showed, and there was room for 275-300 cramped under the tent. People understandably left early. And it rained. No I mean it poured!  Lots of fun still had. Tons of laughs and lots of eye contact with smiles for a great cause.  We had 6 kegs of Victory beer at the beginning. 2.5 were gone when most people were gone. Hung around for another 1.5 hours with other people on the planning committee doing our best to dispose of the donated beer properly.
I think the last sentence is the reason I am a little loopy. 

It was for a good cause. Carry on!

• WeberWho, another Police story (sorry, no liquor involved).  A few years ago, my wife and I left our daughter's apartment in Houston around midnight, heading back to Ky.  After an hour or two of heading north on 59, we got pulled over.  While I was fumbling around for license, registration, etc..., the cop knocked on my wife's window.  Scared her, she was eating ice cream from where we had just stopped.  She threw it up in the air.  Don't know, maybe that embarrassed the cop.  Anyhow, he proceeded to ask us all about what we were doing, where we had been, and where we were going. Wanted to know about our license plate which had caught his eye.  My wife had one of those special ones from where we both had graduated. Finally asked if I knew the speed limit.  I said I thought it was 55, how fast was I going?  "Just a little over" was all he would say.  Then he said "To be honest, there's just not a hell of a lot goes on out here this time of night".  Told us about where the speed limit would change again on up the road and let us go.  Super nice guy.  Guess he was just bored to tears.   

Had a similar thing happen to me recently. My suspicion is the questions are a tactic to judge recall to response. In other words, preliminary DUI assessment. I also think if the tell you how fast you were going, (and speeding) the have to write a ticket. I was never told how fast I was going and fortunately sent on my way.

I don't doubt that you're correct, but FWIW one of my cousins is a cop and he generally pulls folks over for speeding to keep himself awake on the overnight shifts. He'll let you off without a warning if you don't mouth off or anything (this is in OH, wouldn't be surprised if it's a pretty common tactic to stay alert).

Playing the waiting game. 1.5 hours in on 3 racks of spare ribs.

Just pimped up the Roadie that's  holding my brisket. Thanks @stlcharcoal

Looking at photos of flood damage about 10 miles from the house and feeling thankful that we only got mild water in the basement.

@DoubleEgger we should get some made to say "human organs" and then go to a crowed park and pull out a black brisket.  Should get some looks.

Smoked the ribs for 3 hours with Dizzy Pig Pineapple Head rub. Wrapped with more rub and the above pictured honey, pineapple chunks, rum, and turbinado sugar. It's been awhile since I've made ribs like this, but last time we liked it.

@Ozzie_Isaac I think the right choice would've been to go straight.

Brother I didn't even know that I liked Pina Coladas. I drank probably 20 of them a day when I was in the Caribbean a few weeks ago though. 

I ran this poor lady to death bringing me drinks.

Haha, Scottie, nothing like a piña colada in the Caribbean with a dark rum floater. I've been known to have a few of those

Watching the weather roll in.

Due to weather I'm stuck indoors fiddling around with some stuff. 
If I had Rons money this would not be just parts and pieces.
