Happy Birthday Grahame. My apologies to the Monty Python guys but I felt it was apprpriate: Man: You sit here, dear. Wife: All right. Man: Morning! Waitress: Morning! Man: Well, what've you got? Waitress: Well, there's egg and spam; egg sausage and spam; egg and bacon; egg bacon and bacon; egg bacon sausage and bacon; bacon bacon sausage and bacon; bacon egg bacon bacon bacon and bacon; bacon sausage bacon bacon bacon bacon tomato and bacon; Vikings: Bacon bacon bacon bacon... Waitress: ...bacon bacon bacon egg and bacon; bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon baked beans bacon bacon bacon... Vikings: Bacon! Lovely bacon! Lovely bacon! Waitress: ...or Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and bacon. Wife: Have you got anything without bacon? Waitress: Well, there's bacon egg sausage and bacon, that's not got much bacon in it. Wife: I don't want ANY bacon! Man: Why can't she have egg bacon spam and sausage? Wife: THAT'S got bacon in it! Man: Hasn't got as much bacon in it as bacon egg sausage and bacon, has it? Vikings: Bacon bacon bacon bacon... (Crescendo through next few lines...) Wife: Could you do the egg bacon bacon and sausage without the bacon then? Waitress: Urgghh! Wife: What do you mean 'Urgghh'? I don't like bacon! Vikings: Lovely bacon! Wonderful bacon! Waitress: Shut up! Vikings: Lovely bacon! Wonderful bacon! Waitress: Shut up! (Vikings stop) Bloody Vikings! You can't have egg bacon bacon and sausage without the bacon. Wife: I don't like bacon! Man: Sshh, dear, don't cause a fuss. I'll have your bacon. I love it. I'm having bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon beaked beans bacon bacon bacon and bacon! Vikings: Bacon bacon bacon bacon. Lovely bacon! Wonderful bacon! Waitress: Shut up!! Baked beans are off. Man: Well could I have her bacon instead of the baked beans then? Waitress: You mean bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon... (but it is too late and the Vikings drown her words) Vikings: (Singing elaborately...) Bacon bacon bacon bacon. Lovely bacon! Wonderful bacon! Bacon ba-a-a-a-a-a-con bacon ba-a-a-a-con bacon. Lovely bacon! Lovely bacon! Lovely bacon! Lovely bacon! Lovely bacon! Bacon bacon bacon bacon!

Happy Birthday my friend! Sounds like it's been a great one so far. You deserve it. I'll toast you later tonight.

CanJam Atlanta.

Up at 5:00 AM to drive to St. Louis for the Schlafly Cabin Fever beer tasting. Good times to be had with Debbie's brother, sister and bro-in-law.

Currently waiting in line to see Book of Mormon.

Good deal Lil Bro.

^^^ What this guy said.

My deepest condolences Dusty.

As I said before Peter, you're a good cat person and your kitty knows you've given it a good life.

I agree. We are using mostly cast iron - two plain cast iron skillets and two enameled cast iron dutch ovens. As mentioned above, the heat dispersion is excellent and they go from stovetop to oven with no problem. And cleanup is easier than I ever expected it to be.

You're a good cat person Dusty. Good on ya.

Cod with a tomato, red onion, kalamata olive and caper sauce. And green beans.

Yeah, if the time permits I might want to try a few laps...

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday!!

Congrat Jacob. You will own math.

Always a maybe. Let's see where the dates shake out and if I actually expect to have any money at that point.

Sorry Peter, that must truly be awful.

Eye of round for the meat Al.

Debbie made a very nice beef bourguignon:

28 degrees outside. Grilling a filet for Debbie and a porterhouse for me. For the side, it's garlic Hasselback potatoes with herbed sour cream. Happy New Year Casers!

Happy Birthday!!

May your knives always be sharp and your shovel swift and decisive. Happy birthday my friend.

Happy Birthday!!
