    Smokers (BBQ - not grilling)

    Yup! Cooler idea came from Good Eats! Bacon-wrapped anything would benefit from smoking vs. grilling! Time for the heat to get thru to the center, and smoke & bacon are meant for each other. Which reminds me.. I need to make (and smoke) some more bacon! I'm nursing a glass of Knob Creek, my...

    Smokers (BBQ - not grilling)

    I've smoked a turkey (and other poultry) before, family didn't care for the flavor, even when using a light fruit wood like apple. The go-to became the fryer, and that's the only way I'll cook one now (although thin sliced smoked turkey breast makes awesome sandwiches!) Don't know why I didn't...

    The legend of the Angel on top of the Christmas tree

    Santa was very cross. It was Christmas Eve and NOTHING was going right. Mrs. Claus had burned all the cookies. The elves were complaining about not getting paid for the overtime they had worked making toys, and were threatening to go on strike. The reindeer had been drinking eggnog all...

    The sticker is supposed to be relocated to the very top of the windshield, don't ya know? .. on a related note, those stupid stickers on the sun visor in cars, I heard that someone ordered replacements at a dealership, and they would not sell them to him unless the stickers were re-applied...

    Phantom Blue Matte Paint encounter

    I guess with a top-case, you'll hardly notice the black anyway.. Anyone here in the vinyl business? Time to start looking for a match for the blue..

    20 years already?

    I saw them back when I was still living in the UK, and it was probably the best live band I've ever seen.. He killed himself not long after..

    All about Screwing

    I like to keep the provided driver handy when working on the bike. If a fastener is a bit sticky, it's good to use the designed driver than to mangle it with the incorrect tool... I bought a small set of JIS drivers a few years ago, but have never needed them.

    Making Jerky and other dehydrated foods

    I started to understand how good knives could be for what I think might have been a couple of years before I bought my first Shun. I had picked up a couple of Oxo knives that were so much better than the usual Henkel set you get as a wedding present, I started to look into it. Turns out the...
