    And all this time I thought @bgebrent was a pretty good guy!   The Army does not promote dumpster diving like these squids when they come off of their six month sea duty.  They are much more  proficient at making questionable decisions when it comes to members off the fairer sex.

    Either way, dibs. 
    Thanks for taking one for the team. 
    @CTMike You said you needed someone to “stoke your fire all night long”. 

    I figured you would have jumped all over this deal. 
    Sorry, but she’s uglier than three bags of smashed a$$holes.

    If she is working we need to take some food over to the office, it's a county park/county job for her and their might be a rule preventing her from attending. Hopefully she can stop by for a while.

    Also folks, let’s not forget that you learn things here too!

    Here is @JRWhitee learning that there is not really an option to have an invisible, weightless top on an egg. Someone was letting him know when this picture was taken. You can see he is listening as they are telling him right when he was putting the “lid” down. 


    People are nice, they brought him the real top back. 
    And even reinstalled it for him.


    First, this is just a classic picture. Very nicely done. Secondly, is it possible we simply missed the new translucent dome BGE is rolling out as part of their new enhancements? Jim may actually be ahead of us all. Perhaps he was part of the prototype experimenter team? I don't know....must be a legit reason some where.

    I *think* we had a few of the park staff come through the food line the first year we did this.  I can't remember.  But in any case, absolutely, we should get some grub to Kitty.

    @northGAcock That flag turned out on point. 

    Shame it will be stolen.

    At Good Friday tailgate....my boys whooped up on Tennessee last night. They must suck cause we are not a very good team right now ourselves (no offense to my Vol buddies).  At any rate, where I was going with that......is I raised a new flag (for picture purposes only)....and sharing to add to the momentum building as we count um down. 

    Dropped it......and moved on to our tailgate      

     Happy Easter to you all.
    Great flag!!!
