    Dad had the same big Weber kettle grill for about 40 years. It held up great, but of course he always stored it in a garage or shed.

    I got one of the Weber Smokin Joes. Even though there's just me-n-the missus, we like to grill up a mess of meat if I'm firing up the grill. Only way to to that is like in 3 or 4 shifts. So I'd like something big enough to do like 4 chops, 6 chicken breast halves, and 6 burgers in one shot.
    Still, the truck schedule I'm running doesn't permit a predictable grill schedule, so no point in getting one now.

    That doesn't stop me from standing in front of the display model grills, turning knobs and raising lids, though.

    I think the over blown dramatic theater that is more pronounced now in our social interactions. Is a direct result of reality T.V.

    It was not tolerated well before. The masses have become numb and/or participatory with the spread of reality TV. Life does not need to be a confrontational drama every minute.

    About the only place I watched that happen in the '80s was when a gay "drama queen" was around.......

    ######, you think like I do. I've never quite understood the social convention of niceties we didn't extend to an individual prior to their departure. I had a coworker once ask "did you talk about me behind my back about something", my response "yea, but I also told you the same thing to your face".

    In other news Uncle and Aunt did a fine job of getting 4 kids ready for school this morning ON TIME! My sister and B-I-L went to get round 2 of their vaccines, and we were left in charge. Not bad for a couple who don't have kids and rarely do more than basic monitoring of normally self sufficient elementary kids.

    I don't qualify for vaccination yet........ Just more proof I am a "disposable citizen" and not an "essential worker"

    Well I'm glad I didn't leave. I'd say pissed off and leave, but the pissed off was a given.

    Cracked flex pipe. Now fixed. Everything else was good.

    Waiting for the bill. It's taking a lot longer to write up the bill than it did to do the work, so it must be fairly huge.
