Just never been much of a dark meat person. I don't dislike it but more of a breast man. I do like wings though. I've sat and done 50 wings at Buffalo Wild Wings in the past. I'll eat the crap out of wings all day. Well maybe not all day. I tapped at 50. My buddy made it to 72. He's also 6 foot 6 though. My eggs have cooked more white chicken than anything else by a mile. Chicken is a staple here at the house. Just not so much dark meat.

Well, looks damn good to me. I love me some wings too. I don't think I can hang with 50! 30 maybe. Enjoy.

Watching the US struggle against Panama (yes, soccer. But I'm in CA for business and that's what's on the bar TV). The whole country of Panama's population is equal to LA, not the LA metro area, only LA itself.....  it's 1/2 the size of NY city.

Haven't been posting for awhile. Father-in-law's health has been really bad for the past few months. He passed away a couple of weeks ago, so dealing with a lot right now. Hope to be getting back to normal soon. Egg on, brothers.

Thoughts and best wishes to you.  Been through the death of a parent.  Sorry about your FIL.  Look forward to your posts.

Dredger

Thanks, @bgebrent, it's never easy even when it's expected. Looking forward to normal.

These are very difficult times to get through, and get through you must.
Our hearts are with you, and hope the normalcy you seek, reveals itself to you and your family very soon.
We are a selfish lot in this forum, and have missed seeing your words. We look forward to your return.
@Dredger It will get better, for you and your loved ones. Anything we can do for you to help in any way, let us know. You all will be in our thoughts.

Dredger

@YukonRon, I know that you and Suzy had to deal with a similar situation not too long ago. If one lives long enough, these things are inevitable. Thank you for your thoughts. We really appreciate it. Can't remember when we fired up the egg last, but it's time. Ready to jump back in.

Sorry for your loss Dredger......all the best while you work through your loss. I might suggest that being with friends always helps. We would love to see you at the Butt Blast this year.....I promise you will smile.

Dredger

Thank you so much @northGAcock, would love to make this year's Butt Blast. We'll have to see what we can do. Would love to see some smiles and friends for a change. You guys are the best.

would love to try some of those peppers some time but growing them would be another story, havent found away to grow any peppers  in the yard in any quantity as its just too wet, even the raised beds. thanks for the offer.  planted garlic last fall, will find out if it all rotted in another month or two

Grow them in containers. Those plain black 3 or 5 gallon nursery containers work well and are quite cheap. I had about a dozen pots of peri peri and pepperoncini going last year. Pretty good yield from them.

I doubt you get more summer rain than I do but if that is a problem just make a well draining soil mix for the pots. Then don't forget to water them.

You'll also want to feed them every week or so also.

maine has a season of snow and 3 of mud   there has been ducks swimming in the garden with roots on the tomatoes 6 inches from the ground thats the reason i raised some beds. been experimenting under the house eve where its drier and hanging pots under the eve with a drip system. will try that with some piri piri seeds i have and see where it goes with those black pots. the tomatoes not in raised beds do not need watering all season, the sandbar im on is a wet wick off the river which makes some things easy to grow.

Builder's buckets are really cheap. Drill a few holes and you're away.

I wish.  Really challenging go with the help of a neurosurgeon on Friday in a youngster.  Seriously dicey.  It's all good.

@bgebrent - glad the boat was ready to leave hibernation for another season.  
Looks like the lake level is a bit down??
Best of luck with the Friday surgery.  You've got this.

Thanks @bgebrent and Nichole for being my scout this afternoon.

Thanks Cap!  The lake is down about 10 feet.  We need some serious precipitation to get back to full pool. 
Thanks for the support, I've got her covered.  Really appreciate it my friend.

At least let her be there when the patient awakens. She's easier to look at.
