MAK pellet smokers are amazing and the customer service is the best I have had from any company ever. 
 

Also, I am lobbying for a griddle. :)

I have a Weber Performer with the propane burner starter. Can’t recommend it enough. There’s been many an evening that we grilled (when we wouldn’t have otherwise) because I knew starting the coals would be foolproof. 

Gas?  Weber Spirit 3 burner...yes I have a gas grill, a charcoal grill and a smoker. Don’t look at me like that. :)

Amazingribs.com is the place to look for reviews. Possibly THE source for grill/barbecue/smoking info online. Check it out.

BTW, if you’re looking for a smoker, I vote MAK.

Scientists question…

Scientists question everything, all the time. That is their job. Those are the people who should be the skeptics.  It’s the people who can’t understand the answers (or the questions) that should stop being skeptics. A cohort of people that almost never agree have statistically agreed that the climate is changing. Couple that with a species producing carbon emissions unlike any other in the earth’s history and I’m just not sure how you can conclude that the decisions humans are making in this area are ok and sustainable.

In addition, fossil fuel will run out, period. Even if climate change wasn’t a big deal, why the heck would we not want to transition to fuel sources that won’t run out?? Question for another thread I guess...

Incredibly Sad...

Maggie was the cog that kept the wheels turning for the MMB.  Couldn’t believe it when I heard the news this morning.  As an MMB alum, it feels like part of the MMB itself passed this morning  

 

Seconded...

And the new cherry chocolate doesn’t suck either...

Boss Tweed

IMO one of the best IPAs available in the country right now.

I don't post much...

But I love the site Brian!  Try not to let the idiots get you down...

It wasn't execution when the game was on the line

Check the film on the 2pt. conv.  3 recievers on 5 DBs.  That is not putting your kids in position to succeed.  If they had converted, it would have been in spite of Borges, not because of him.  And that is why he needs to go. 

I was ok with him staying...

Until the 2 point attempt.  How on earth do you run the same formation out there after they call timeout to see what we're going to do?  He's just got to go. 

Not...

If you've got Tthe skilz...

I was there as well...

Junior in HS at the time.  Soaking wet, and just happy to be there!  I actually thought what I was wearing was waterproof...lol

I'm not sure

Whether to cringe from TMI, or ask for more info...

 

amazingribs.com

I second the suggestions to head over to www.amazingribs.com.  If you're a fan of Alton Brown, you'll be a fan of this site.

I also have a performer and love it.  There are some suggested mods on amazingribs that can help you add smoker fuctionality to your performer (or any weber kettle for that matter) that may make more financial sense than purchasing another piece of equipment...

I have

A Mac Book Pro retina display from this past fall. It is by far the best computer I have ever owned. Light, powerful and reliable. The only downside is the hard drive size, but the ssd drive is so fast I actually don't mind handing to carry an external.

You get what you pay for. Apples stuff is more expensive because they test the shit out of their hardware configurations to make sure it works correctly. After using windows for 15+ years I switched and il never go back. Besides, if you ever want to use windows, just get parallels or something like that. Best of both worlds.

I'm with you.

I may be the only one.  And I am really embarrased for this board right now. 

The problem

Is what people are finding funny.  Just because I think that you shouldn't laugh at other people's misforture/mistreatment doesn't make me a jerk.  And, laughing at racist/sexist jokes might just be wrong!

The problem...

isn't the medium with which you're voicing that opinion.  The problem is that you have that opinion at all.

Ummm...

Some of us don't have jobs that allow us to post a ton.  I usually only post when I can offer useful info on a topic, or when someone is posting something offensive.  Like the other poster said, you may just consider this a harmless joke, but it's not.  My wife volunteers for Safehouse here in A2.  You would not believe the things that happen to women here.  And this is an educated, low crime area!  Sorry if my response is strong, but you hit a nerve.  As a man, I'm tired of seeing other men make disparaging jokes about women.  So please don't. 

And I usually do enjoy your posts.  Just becuase I don't post a lot, doesn't mean I don't check the site...obsessively. 

You're usually a good poster...

Don't be a douche. 

Did you read the article?

Or just think, "Forbes said it, it must be true!"

Kid Prez is awesome!

You need to watch some of his vids...

No Politics

kthxbai.

I'm not sure...

I'm not sure the whole "wall street" thing is good thow out right now if your intention is to look smart. Are all the sub primes belong to you??

That sucks...

Do the surgery, follow the doctor's instructions.  If they tell you not to walk on it, then don't.  Do the PT, do your exercises at home. 

Shower the morning before surgery, because you may not be able to for a few weeks after.  (that really sucked...)

As soon as you can after surgery, get Vitamin E gel caps.  Pop (as in break open) one a day and smear it all over your incision.  My doc couldn't believe how fast my incision healed and how good it looked.  Oh, and if you don't want a scar (minimize it anyway), keep the incision out of the sun as long as you can. 

You're going to build up scar tissue from inactivity, so when there's a terrible ripping noise in PT after the surgery, don't freak. 

Don't rush the PT after the fact or you'll get tendonitis and back to crutches you go. 

Hopefully your tear won't be as bad as mine was, I was on crutches for like a year.  :(  Anyway, there's a summary of my ACL tear experience.  Good luck!

/s, right?

Maybe my sacasometer is off today. If no sarcasm:

B. i feel sorry for your significant other.

Edit: First double!! WooHoo!

I can't get over...

The body language and the apparent attitude of the team during last night's game.  I understand that we're young and building a toughness is going to take some time, but there appears to be no leadership from any of the players.  That is really concerning me and making me feel like we may be lucky to make the round of 32.

The other huge concern is the lack of a third offensive option when shots aren't falling and teams are shutting down the pick and roll.  If those two things get taken away from us we do not seem to have a thrid option.  To me, that is coaching.

Agree.

CJ Lee leaves, team lacks leadship and nose dives.  Zack Novak/Stu Douglas leave...  This slow start on the road thing is no longer a fluke.
