    Got your message, Damon - thanks. Let's plan something indeed. How does the latter part of March sound? I've got some traveling for school training and spring break before then but that last couple of weeks in March are looking more open. Shoot me an email.

    Well I would cook in the bath tub, with the fan on, let them figure out that one. Is there a rule for BBQ's in the bathroom?

    Sorry, my friend - wasn't my intention to start something that would irritate you. In addition to a great resource this forum is also a family - that's part of what makes it so active, and that's why I posted this news here.

    Meanwhile, your post has generated two more - ooops! ;)

    Eggless but not friendless,

    you'll enjoy this, max....

    my seven year old son is making a card for a neighbor kid's birthday party. it's a "planet" party, kid likes the planets.

    so H makes a card and starts giggling. i ask him what he wrote, and he can barely talk from the laughing as he turns it around to show me.

    "Happy Birthday from Uranus"

    hahaah

    i bit my lip and did the stern, "ow, buddy,. that's not appropriate." then i took it upstairs and his mother and i laffed our asses off.

    Actually, I have thought about removing the grate from my fireplace and putting the Mini in there. Do you think I could swing that?

    dude. i went to their website. what's with the music? sounded like that royalty free stuff they use in cinemax softcore movies. i mean, i would IMAGINE that's what it sounds like.

    i checked out their picture gallery, and sure enough, nothing but roses and perfection. i didn't see any grills anywhere.

    tried playing around with their floor plan toy. i added a piano to the living room, and could even spin it, but they wouldn't let me add another one. how do they know i ain't maybe lookin to cram my grand piano collection into my one-bed? and when i added a table to the kitchen, i could only put one chair at it. made me feel real sorry for myself.

    those folks sound awful uptight.

    my vote? G T F O. woo-doggies begots a nice set-up. if you don't take him up on it, i'm gonna. me, the wife, and two boys. if we had space here, you'd be welcome.

    Dear Mrs. Dee,

    I represent Mr. T Rex in the action your organization has pursued against him. It's an infringement on his constitutional rights. It's outrageous, egregious, preposterous.

    Please realize that Mr. Rex has not "stored" his Big Green Egg on his patio as alleged in your letter. If you will refer to EGGSHIBIT A, Random House defines the verb "store" as:

    EGGSHIBIT A
    –verb (used with object)
    8. to supply or stock with something, as for future use.
    9. to accumulate or put away, for future use (usually fol. by up or away).
    10. to deposit in a storehouse, warehouse, or other place for keeping.

    Mr. Rex uses the equipment in question daily, therefore it is not stored....it is USED. Your allegations are baseless. That's deplorable, unfathomable, improbable.

    Regards,
    Jackie Chiles
    Attorney At Law

    PS: Mr. Rex, who told you to put the balm on? Did I tell you to put the balm on?

    Oh, Man!

    Life can be a veritable bitqch!

    How 'bout one, last, final cook [after you've moved out, just as the moving van was leaving].

    Pull Le Egge close up to the wall, and let 'er rip! Have a real "barn burnin' time."

    Then run like hell!

    It is clear that Jason has safely guarded his balcony from intrusions by the local Bear community with the latest in BGE bear trap technology. As Alaskan C can attest, a second egg has clearly discouraged the bears from further brisket stealing in Sitka AK and although it may have caused her accelerated usage of fire starters, the rewards were clearly worth the investment. No further briskets have dissapeared due to bears! Word amongst the bear community traveled all the way to Atlantal as Jason can attest. He has not lost any briskets to bears this past year! It is wrong for the management to place Trex and the apartment community in further danger of beas by removing his BGE bear traps. Just my 2 cents....

    Hey Eggtucky, one major point I think you're missing about this forum and one of the things that makes it so cool is the large sense of community. And this thread is a perfect example of that.

    There have been folks who've tried for years to sway this forum into their ideal and for all their trying, it hasn't worked yet... best just to roll with it and apply the mantra at the bottom of your post... Improvise, Adapt, Overcome.

    Be well!

    Well Leroy, I see you have had some time to think how we eggheads should handle the issue. :woohoo:
    A parking lot eggfest would work as well. Complete disruption of the community. Maybe a
    little less damage.
    I had someone steal one of my eggs. WHAT kind of punishment would that require. :laugh:
