I have a slightly different opinion. The Bills offense benefits immensely from two components, and it explains a lot of long third down conversions which we've we've all seen and enjoyed, especially since the Thanksgiving Dallas game. First component is Allen getting out of the pocket and buying time towards the sideline. Second is the receivers recognizing the scramble drill and getting open when the initial timing of the play is disrupted. I think the Bills are extremely good at the scramble drill passing offense, and especially Diggs and Beasley. Josh gets them the ball because he has the ability to throw from many arm angles, even if his balls aren't super accurate. So far, works for us.

Been to China recently? Don't try to buy dinner with yen.

I should have mentioned, if you need to replace that part, its a fabric gasket. Ten minute job to replace. Pull the old gasket off, use a chisel/knife/ blade of whatever sort to get the adhesive off, and put the new one on. Let it sit for a day and your back in grilling business.

Not sure about other brands, but I replace the seal on my Primo about every three years. Regular low and slow meals don't cause any wear and tear, but pizza and other things I do at about 500 degrees do. Easy and cheap to find on Amazon or on any user forum for the particular brand.

My response is, I really wish I wasn't behind that guy.

It's very difficult to judge or evaluate IR video from a HUD camera. I've flown many sorties at sea using FLIR and you get some really strange images. Even the accurate ones are suspect unless you know the range and heat source. I doubt one in ten would be able to identify an aircraft carrier at 60 miles using FLIR with appropriate magnification unless you knew what you were looking at. It's an odd, distorted image.

And that doesn't include the Israelis.

The land is of inestimable value. It is simply impossible to value it without regard to Jewish history.

And the Arab world's treatment of the "Palestinians" throughout history is another interesting subject. Only works when they are leveraged against israel.

Plenty of US blood has been lost as the result of Iranian action. A US retaliation against that regime would not involve significant US troops. It would be air, and it would be effective.

Christian Wade can do everything he can do better.

Glad you made your decision and are pleased with it. As I said, I've been cooking on a Primo XL for years, and if there is one bit of advice I would offer, because I think it's invaluable, is to purchase some kind of temp controller. If you want to do long cooks, like brisket, pork butt, or ribs, it is essential that the temp be controlled accurately. Same with turkey/chicken. It is way too much work to actively control it with vent placement, and even then the temps are not accurate. On my Primo, I cook brisket and pork butt at 225. In order to get 225 in the cooking area, where it matters, the dome temp indicates 305. In other words, the dome temp is useless if you care to cook precisely. Controllers are not cheap, my DIGI Q is about $125, but it holds the cooking temp within two degrees without any work, or opening the lid, on my part. I get it stabilized at the cooking temp for 20 mins then don't open the thing for ten hours until done. Pays for itself after about five cooks, and I wouldn't operate without it.

I've owned a Primo XL Kamado for years. I use lump charcoal only, and control the temp with a Diqi-Q controller. Not a cheap combination, but works great and I really enjoy it. I always use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Those are quite inexpensive and very accurate. I've cooked just about everything in it. Not sure about your non ceramic question. The benefit of ceramic is that they really hold moisture in, as long as you don't keep opening them, which you never have to with a controller for the pit temp and a meat thermometer.

I have an even/odd thing with gas also, but it's octane based. I will only allow the fuel to be an "even" total octane. Sine the choices are 87, 89 or 93 octane, I have developed charts that I carry to blend to three in hundreds of potential volume options so that it averages 88, 90, or 92. Takes a bit longer at the pump, but peace of mind is pricless.

Did a five day thing there as well. Nice place in the desert Southwest, but the new age stuff, to use your phrase is a bit, well a lot, over played, in my view.

Nah. They'll get the kings. Ms. and I will make do. Living on an aircraft carrier in a junior officer's bunkroom for months on end, I get in one position and don't move much.

Here's where we're going on Sun- next Thurs. The cabin is near Sevierville TN., in the Great Smokey Mountains. Our three adult kids will join us. https://www.cabinsforyou.com/brothers-deja-view.htm We always do a mountain cabins with the kids once per year. I'll bring the flyrod and waders along, so we'll see how that goes, and plenty of other things to do there. The Mrs. and I will do the annual Europe thing in late Oct, but no specific plans yet, as that situation re Covid changes weekly.

Please no K.C. on this site. One guy I never want to hear again, in any context. I'm sure the guy wasn't into football, if you get my drift.

The Navy operates near the San Clemente Island facility. Those operations have nothing to do with the closed San Onofre nuclear power plant, which is on the mainland, south of the city of San Clemente, (not the island), and was run by Southern California Edison. the Navy does not defend civilian nuclear power plants. Very few aircraft operations are conducted on San Clemente Island. Years ago we would use targets there, but environmental pressures have pretty much ended that, and even then it wasn't used much. The area that those FLIR images came from is called the SoCal Operating area, and is where carriers operate during work ups for Pacific cruises. It is international waters. Anyway, not trying to be impolite, but linking these recordings to a suggestion that there is some nuclear component is a non starter.

Iraq was stashing WMD's.

We will own the sixth round.

You came to this conclusion from somewhere else, and I am interested in finding out where that was from. I have operated in the area where these were recorded. The US, nor any other country that I'm aware of, does not operate nuclear facilities in international waters. So where is the area, and where is the claim?

I hate to nag, but I'm quite interested in where the reference is for this claim. No response for a couple days, but I'm hoping.

China claiming some bizarre sovereignty over the South China Sea is like claiming sovereignty over the moon. International law and right of passage is clear, established with agreements and precedent, and indisputable.
