I like the way you think!frazzdaddy said:
When I was younger and still actually working on the cars, I would swing from the swaybars and kick them loose. That was a couple of pounds ago though.WeberWho said:
I had the same issue with the wheels. I had to go around the wheels with a mallet. The roaters finally budged when carefully hitting it between the lugs. Fairly simple task but those roaters sure put up a fight.frazzdaddy said:
Had my share of those, Most Mercedes are stuck w/o the salt treatment. Sometimes the wheels would stick as well.WeberWho said:Consider yourself lucky if you wrench on your vehicle and it doesn't see snow and salt. I spent a good 15 minutes trying to knock these rotors loose with a mallet and hammer this afternoon.
Now do I try and convince my wife that this was part of her Christmas gift?
Ugh. I hate shopping.

I just started putting a small amount of soy sauce and just a touch of sesame oil in my scrambled eggs before cooking them. Add some black pepper and Cajun seasoning, and you have a winner.=======================================

Could be home for breakfast before 0930. Result!OK, I think I have figured out you guys are using an American redneck BBQ forum for back-channel covert communications. My guess is you guys (or gals, no proof you aren't) are MI-6 having to make communiques outside the normal parameters and you needed some alternative communication channel.Not like you're MI-6 in deep cover, you are likely working on some off-the-(official)-books operation in broad daylight, but with some professional obfuscation, probably exposing malfeasance at the highest levels by fascist operators colluding with Russian FSB."Food order pick-up" = cache ready at dead drop"M&S" done = mum got her sh*t (AKA briefing)"Waitrose - I need progress" - Handler named Rose being told to wait, she's cheeky."Could be home for breakfast bla bla bla" - when you'll be back at HQ, and with good news.Kids and chickens, these are code for double agents feeding misinformation to their (opposite side) handlers. Still in bed means they aren't ready yet.So obvious! I should have figured this out hundreds of posts ago!In fact, it makes sense you're MI-5 busting Brexit collusion on the local level. Nigel Farage probably has a copy of the FSB's PeePee tape, and he used that to leverage US candidate support, and this all goes back to Sir James Goldsmith and UKIP back to 1994.It's all making sense now, the nonsensical (to us naive 'mericans) chatter, probably an operation called "Soiled 51.9 Percent Diaper".Anyway, don't want to blow your cover, carry-on gents!

That don't look like no Egg. What brand of smoker is it? I'm looking to get a vertical smoker but I can't decide what to get. Maybe just go cheap then build something.WeberWho said:A couple of smoked turkeys for sandwiches this evening

Up early having an espresso with the kids before the maximum destruction button went off. The only thing I needed to do was make some queso, get some green lightening shrimp started and make breakfast after the bomb went off.northGAcock said:

Cracking open my second beer in an attempt to soothe my nerves. Almost got T-boned twice within 1.5 seconds. Luckily I have mastered the art of swerving to avoid people who can't obey basic rules of the road. It was a bad idea to drive into town on Christmas eve. I'm staying in for the rest of the year.It's "Smokin Gal", not "Smoking Al".

My lovely wife enjoys decorating and hosting friends for Christmas. I love the finished product but really hate lugging the boxes up and down the stairs. In the end, it's all worth the effort.

Forgot to take a plated pic but it came out killer.
Food coma in full effect but I have many miles to go before sleep.
Creme Brule was tasty but my torch skills need work.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
