    I will struggle to try and throw something together this year. Have no idea what we can possibly do with leftovers from soup beans and cornbread.

    Make all the assumptions you like-no rules posted, game on.  I am going to toss some turkey pieces/parts on after delivering a pulled pork banquet to the local fire-house. 
    My challenge will be the creativity-and a "give a $hit picture" approach.  All in good fun!

    You know what happens when you assume?  You make an ass out of u and me.

    Thank you @JohnInCarolina as I have an issue with "assume":
    Since I'm here in a thread hi-jack, the word I have wanted banished from the language for longer than I can remember is "assume".  It is a cop-out that facilitates the user.  It is an enabler, interpret things as you want/wish them to be.  And that interpretation is likely not the true reality and certainly will skirt the tough issue that, in most cases will include a potential uncomfortable situation or scenario.  Thus the "assumer" shirks the responsibility of pursuing the correct answer.  Off the soap-box.
    The above is a saved deal from many years of dealing with the word and the sentiments.  I truly hate the word.  Off another soap-box.
    I assume all will understand  ;)

    You have a rabbit in your forum pic.  I feel pretty good about this.

  • Ohhhh. Interesting. Now I have to establish an entire BGE electoral college, run off system, vote count officials, oversight committee....

    I feel like that election thread could really shadow Blake’s dividing “Peace Out” scandal.

    Just pretend you are some vote counting certified out-fit.  Da-n the torpedoes, full speed ahead.  Then "have it your way", Burger King will be fine with that.  =)
    Of course not so much high drama and will certainly lead to lower posts.
    In the end game, always remember "WIC, BIC".

    Here is my entry. Nothing fancy or complex. The beauty is it’s simplicity.
    We eat early - about 2, so this is prepared at about 6:30-7:00pm. 
    Leftover dark meat on a Kings Hawaiian roll with leftover coleslaw and a hefty amount of fresh cracked pepper. The side is potato chips. Have had this every year for as long as I can remember, and have zero plans on mixing it up. I actually like it better than the main meal. 


    If if you need an updated and better pic, standby. I will get one for you about 7:00 pm on Thursday.
    I’m out  =)

    Another reason why I hope this forum will never become a personal meal posting picture thread only.
    @lousubcap this is exactly what ruined my vocal cords years ago when I took the necessary time to enlighten one of the team members on a proper thinking process.
    If you think you know, you do not know. When you know, you know, then you know you know.
    Borrowed your soapbox.
    Thank you.

  •  I assume it is ok to request an extension to the deadline that has not yet been defined for Likes.
     Just want to be sure every Like is counted as there are many folks who aren’t members that intend to vote for me. I will advise of the number recieved post deadline.
  • If this thread gets sunk tonight I nominate last years winner @tarheelmatt to start a new thread tomorrow.
