OT - What are you doing right now?

Just put this baby together. Now I just have to get propane and season it. Smash burgers for everyone.

Rolling pear smoke for some wangs dusted with Plowboys, and slapped on Midwest Industries' front sling adapter .  All that's left is a sling, and an AXTS Raptor FDE charging handle.

My buddy has a problem.

Is that a 90 or 91 851?  I had a 92 which turned out to be the last of the white frames.  888's started the bronze paint - never the same for me after that.

@Possumtrot not sure, I'll ask him.  I stop by for a beer a few times a week.  He sold some property last month and had to dump all his Ducatis there.  That's just the tip of the iceberg.  He has another shop with more.  He's in his 60s and still runs out at the track.

@nolaegghead what is his problem?  All I see are solutions.

And they say you can't grill on a WSM.
Lit half full ring on one end, let things cruise up to 300.  Touched the vents once.  Unknown BBQ Hinge came in handy last 15 min.  Medium heat over the wings with the lid open.  Rolled the big drummies, moved things around at the end.

Buck fifty per lb at Aldi.

Finished with a little bit of Stubbs Original in the KA mixer bowl.

All day.

Some sweet corn from my Aunt Elaine.  Used this cob stripper for the first time.  Worked pretty good.

Boiled for 5 min, then butter, shallot, garlic, thyme saute over med, bacon, kosher, white pepp, and cranked up high in the Griswold.  

9 year old is a sweet corn crusher.  I don't blame him.

I'm watching the USA/Swiss women's beach volleyball now (just by chance, of course). Women's Oly Beach Volleyball has often taken much criticism as the athletes are nearly naked (and taken much credit for the same reason).
Tonight, the USA ladies are wearing bikini bottoms*, but long-sleeved black tops, with their bikini tops on top of the black blouses!! The Swiss Misses are wearing long black tops AND bottoms, but again with their bikini top over the top of their blouses. I'd like to hear the "official" explanation for this oddity. 
I thought at first it was cooler, but this is Rio. Then I thought, mosquito/Zika defense? But it looks to be indoors. 
I shall continue my careful research, stand by.


*Red. My favorite color.

It was a cold rainy day in that part of Brazil. And by cold I mean 65°F. Dreadful winter weather.

Many people in the stands were wearing coats. I understand why you didn't notice them.

Just got done watching Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead 2 on Netflix.  Now craving a Wendy's baconator.

I snapped this as I was waiting on the gate. The guy was even cooler than his house. He showed me around the property and house, 170 rose bushes, banana trees, magnolias, a pool,  and two greenhouses. When I pulled up he was outside building in-line fertilizer carts that meter 10% solution that's tapped into the drop lines for the roses. I hope I'm half that cool when I'm 80.

I hope your are too!

I hope I'm 80 one day(at least)

Had this for 30th anniversary last night. The bride and I shared this cowboy ribeye cooked on the (boat) gas grill. It didn't suck!i cut the rib off leaving plenty of meat as opposed to my normal knawing....... Gonna be a good BBQ Rib tomorrow. 

theyolksonyou

@northGAcock any rocking?

Dyal_SC

I hope Miss Pattie is gentle with him @theyolksonyou

theyolksonyou

@Dyal_SC we really should have had a pool on over/under until she throws him overboard 

northGAcock

Ms Pattie is worn out from all the stress of two nights of anchoring......or on the hook as they say. She is happy to put her feet on the ground....and she was almost out of vodka. That makes me also out. Now you boys pay attention......you see those flowers on the table? I asked the lady at Safeway to Woop that up for me. Daddy real happy. You guys keep working on your wings whilst I take care of bitniss out here.

The reason they wore the bikini tops over the shirts was because the tops are their uniforms and wearing them is in the rules.  The shirts and pants are optional, the uniforms are not.  Yes and it's cold there.  If you listen to the beginning of the match you'll hear "Americans in the red, Swiss in black".

Hope you are enjoying it @northGAcock. Looks like the weather cleared up for you!   Got to get that trap in the water and get some of those delicious crabs they have out there!  Nice touch of the flowers too.

Get two tanks while you are at it.  The blackstone is a heavy drinker.
