@The Cen-Tex Smoker Did you experience a gravity fed "man down" event?  Asking as this was the first Zoom in a few weeks where we did not have one on the call.   

Apparently I was mobile. 

Are your neighbors looking at you funny today?

Haven’t been out. Lying low for a few days

Right call.

I have no idea what I did after I got off the call but I woke up with my shoes looking like this. Hope I had fun. 

I had burrs on the shin of my pants too so I can confirm that I was at least partially clothed for whatever this was. 

No good story ever started with “well I was making a salad”. Need further details as they become clearer to you.

There was a video that may or may not have caused memory loss in some participants.

Your friendly weekly bump.  Who's on for tomorrow night?  It's not a holiday weekend, so some of you stragglers need to come out from behind the shadows and jump in to the deep end...

Some suggested topics:

1) the looming income tax deferral
2) what would you pay for an XXL?
3) Are we running out of Rockwood?
4) What are you doing... right now?
5) What are you drinking... now?
6) Is there a difference between "right now" and "now" ?
7) WTF is Lacto Fermentation, anyway?
8) Natural casings
9) How to spell "experience"
10) The rub and sauce exchange
11) Why you should never attempt to drive through Atlanta
12) And stay away from the airport
13) Atlanta sucks in general
14) A toast to Brent

Most likely, I have some theories on Lactose Infermentary Syndrome

I may pop back in this week. Hopefully John doesn't kick me out again.

Rumour floating there maybe a Barbie meets Batman project in the works

If I join, I’m only having one beer.....

Can we get a trail cam for Centex?

@JohnInCarolina way to help guide us into the wilderness.  Game on (around 9 PM EDT) with minor pauses for me.  Gotta get the BGE under control for the planned over night cook once I crawl away from the evening's carnage.

A dangerous gambit but I may join you in that endeavor.

Bump and  a roll-call request.  Doors open around 9 PM (EDT) and close once we have a confirmed man down...generally in the 1-2AM EDT timeframe but have been know to stay open longer.    
You will definitely be entertained and anyone is welcome.  

dmchicago

As usual, I plan on crashing the bar around 9 CDT. But facts on the ground will determine the action plan.

SciAggie

I’ll make an effort to pop in this evening. 

JohnInCarolina

I plan to make an appearance myself around 9, just to keep things from getting out of control...

Anybody bringing the bull$hit flag for @JohnInCarolina?? 
Edit:  Upon further review I have found a flag from my past life that I will bring to the watering hole.  It qualifies.

I’m in tonight - have had our son and family the last two weeks so my grandchildren were more important than you degenerates. 😎

More importantly, are the neighbors pets looking at you funnny?

could someone kindly remind me which time zone I'm in? It may facilitate my actually joining in this week.

And, yes... cocktails started early.

I hate to tell you but I go man down earlier than that... I just politely excuse myself before I fall asleep on camera!! Hope to catch you tonight.

It's not over, until all you can see is @bucky925 's porch ceiling fan, or the top of @thetrim 's hat.

Great to see folks. Sorry for my abrupt exit. I wasn’t falling asleep!  Apropos our chat, @caliking and @buckey925, last night we found out our kids have been around other kids exposed to the ‘rona. None positive yet, and I hope those fomites don’t give it to me!
