  1. Ranks right up there with watching the Bills over past few decades.
  2. Plus you get the whole bed to yourself which is a huge sleeping bonus.
  3. What am I missing here? Is the Don a POTUS reference?
  4. I'm amazed the attention Cam's hat is getting. Especially since the visor has been around for approximately ***400 years . ***I'm relying on @DC Tom to confirm this.
  5. I wish I had musical talent.
  6. I've never met anyone who did a sleep study who wasn't recommended a CPAP. I'm a terrible snorer, but I'm never overly tired and I dont have headaches. I'm a light sleeper by nature, so I think my body has adjusted over the years to not getting great sleep. I move around a lot at night and I can't imagine being strapped to a breathing apparatus. I'd probably end up strangling myself.
  7. All things in moderation as the saying goes. I'll take my chances with a few steaks over that abomination of a burger.
  8. All is right with the world right here right now .
  9. People need to know the truth about this man.
  10. Ok buddy...it may work for you, but how do you explain your friend Grimace?
  11. I'm no doctor or nutritionist, but I think this mostly applies to processed meats and processed foods in general.
  12. Zimas especially.
  13. Indeed he has, but when I first started listening when I was 15, I had different beliefs. At least he's consistent. I listed to most of the Sphinctour live show at work today.
  14. I second this. I forget what they said when we bought it, but I thought it was supposed to retain its original shape within an inch for 15 years.
  15. I love Ministry's music so much. They're playing with Slayer, Primus, and Phil Anselmo around here in November, but Jourgensens political stuff during the shows has put me off on spending the money.
  16. 10-4....I never was big into Neil Young. I'd probably be a little more discerning of covers of some of my more familiar bands.
  17. What are your thoughts of the Typo O Negative version....personally I love it.
  18. Until the food runs out by the looks of it.
  19. I researched kamado grills for months. They are very versatile i.e. smoking, searing, grilling and you can even bake in it if you so choose. Big Green Egg is probably the most commonly known, but as others have mentioned there are brands such as Primo and Kamado Joe that are really good, but also really expensive. I ended up getting the Louisiana Grills model from Costco. It was $599, but we had reward money so I ended up getting it for around $300. I've had mine for about 5 months know and here's what I can tell you about it. This is the only one I've ever cooked on so I don't have anything to compare it to. 1. They are HEAVY. The gross weight of the entire package was ~300 lbs. Me and my buddy had a hard time loading it into my truck. I believe this is pretty much par for the course for all ceramic type kamado grills. 2. Use hardwood lump charcoal only. The briquettes, especially those with lighter fluid in them will leach into the pours of the ceramic and will screw with the flavor. 3. Depending on which style you buy, some accessories come with the grill. A heat deflector is pretty much essential for indirect cooking/smoking. The one I bought came with the grill which is another reason I chose it. 4. There is a learning curve regarding temperature adjustments and damper settings (I'm still learning). However, once you get the temperature set, it holds amazingly well for a long period of time. You can start it before you go to bed and it will be the same when you wake up. 5. Mine doesn't have a removable ash tray. I have to remove the fire box to clean out the ashes which weighs 40-40 lbs. It doesn't have to be done every time, but you need to make sure the ashes are clear to help the air circulate. 6. If you plan on doing any smoking, make sure you get a good thermometer. I used a wired blue-tooth thermometer. Mine just busted so I need to get another. 7. The lump charcoal is tougher to light than briquettes. They make fire starters that help, but I found it best to use a benzene torch. 8. Once you're done cooking, the grill is going to stay hot for a while. Even with all the dampers closed. By a while I mean a few hours before you can put the cover back on. 9. So far I've cooked 2 briskets, wings, pizzas, steaks and a pork butt. The first brisket I did, I made a lot of mistakes along the way and it wasn't good. The second one kicked ass. The pizzas are awesome once you figure the method out. You'll need a pizza stone which is also extra. I screwed a few of those up too and am still working on my technique. My goal is to smoke a turkey for Thanksgiving, and I need to do a few practice trials first. 10. I wasn't sure how much I was going to get to use the grill and I'm certainly no master chef, so I didn't want to drop $1K right out of the gate. I believe this and most likely the Vision are good starter grills. I believe this is the newer version of the one I got. Again, it was $699 on costco.com, but was only $599 in store. https://louisiana-grills.com/shop/grills/charcoal/lg-k24-black-lg Have fun and happy hunting.
  20. That's a good way to stay alone.
  21. I remember that. I think were close to the same age, but I seem to recall it being earlier than high school.
  22. Nothing good ever comes from Four Loko. Weren't they banned for a spell?
