  1. I don't feel too bad for you. This is our roller coaster ride. Only in Michigan or the Great Lakes States
  2. Agreed. Great course
  3. Thanks Brent. I know literally nothing about noise cancelling headphones. Been reading but didn't see wirecutter. Thank You! Of course you don't know this grandson has a short arm (aka no hand) on the left. IEMs were my first thought but as talented as he is with one hand I couldn't see how that would work. I'll let me daughter know.
  4. Can't believe I'm resurrecting such an old thread. My 4 year old grandson needs noise cancelling headphones. Apparently he has issues with loud environments. I looked at the sony wh1000xm2 but that doesn't look like something that will fit a 4 year old well. Considering how they would be handled might not be a wise choice anyway. Any help appreciated.
  5. Not exactly appropriate for here, but RIP Cathedral de Notre Dame. She was a grand lady and one of the few structures that actually struck me with awe.
  6. Stretch has the Elite. I have the Advantage. Like all pellet poppers the Memphis is great for low & slow cooking and for smoking. Not so great at grilling. The flame insert helps, but the other night when I made a steak it was put on at 225 to smoke it, wrapped in foil while the the Memphis heated to maximum temp, swapped in the flame insert and finished the steak. If you have time the Memphis can work for grilling, but there are better options. Another alternative is to have the Elite with natural gas grill. Have all your bases covered
  7. Best primer on the science of all things grilling Grilling basics A-Z Several great grilling books and recipes available. These two are staples in most BBQer libraries. Enjoy.l Might want to check out https://amazingribs.com/ for information and go to the forums for advice.
  8. We can now make appointments in advance at the DMV here in Michigan. Even get updates and reminders texted to you.
  9. I was on two panels but rejected both times by the defense attorney. I'm okay with that. Ran into him on the street after the last jury selection and he told me the reason he rejected me was I was too sure of myself and would influence the jury. I am okay with that as well.
  10. Closed on my new home late yesterday and moved today. Too tired to celebrate tonight but picked these up so I am ready. 4 months living in limbo. I am home now.
  11. Thanks all. Had a great birthday!
  12. Condolences from my ice box to yours. Our temp this am was -2F. We have warmed to 0F. Current windchill -28F. Glad it was just a clogged intake. Easy fix :).
  13. A Les Paul Gibson or Leo Fender Stratocaster? Book review is intriguing and I'll be adding "The Birth of Loud" to my reading list. How can any book that devotes an entire chapter to Jimi Hendrix's "Star Spangled Banner" not be good https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2019/01/how-electric-guitar-was-born/580969/?utm_content=edit-promo&utm_campaign=the-atlantic&utm_source=facebook&utm_term=2019-01-23T15%3A49%3A54&utm_medium=social&fbclid=IwAR1yRv227ZOCG2E0QNyGcFsWmjcLIAbv-eGkq6zaLfCd5hLKbqO6QlLDXL8&fbclid=IwAR3lV2czwFZHomp5jZX4zu6G6lbCL7al2S268e-BqwgdzT-HCq_SdaXei38
  14. Just found out a friend of mine died 1/1/19. George Vuillemot was a good ole boy. Lived life his way and lived it to the fullest. 82 years young when he died. He was a bat boy for the Chicago Cubs and had several autographs. No doubt valuable but to him they were priceless memories. Raced cars on dirt tracks into his 70s. I met George when I needed a dog trainer. We developed a good and long lasting friendship. He trained the famous line of Smith English Setters for many years. Tough as nails and could out work me in his 60s even though there is a 16 year difference in our ages. Heart of gold. I'll have to look for the setter painting he gave me tonight as I have it stored away as a memory of him. I will toast George properly when I get home tonight. RIP in my friend. May all the dogs you run be Field Champions and may you win every race.
  15. Awful news Wayne. So sorry Antonio.
  16. Cheers to Mrs K. May her hate consume and shrivel her. Galaxy Quest Coleslaw Brisket Sweetcorn Cornbread Debris fries
  17. Sorry Craig. Condolences to Carole. Seems like Sue is now finally at peace.
  18. Funny. My mother just asked how I'll get back from Drummond Island in October if it snows. She was not amused when I said drive.
  19. RIP John McClain. An honorable politician. Often disagreed with him but he always had my respect.
