I was too young to see Willie Mays in his prime but I've been able to see a lot of his highlights over the years, and from them I learned that baseball is far, far more than just hitting (although that's sadly lost on a lot of modern players). Know a kid who's expressed an interest in the game...

You are truly a Man of Action.

Omaha isn't too terribly far from me, so it's not unfathomable to think that a CWS game might be in my future.

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? One, two, threeee...CRUNCH! It's a tough question. Different cooks require different charcoal loads, there's smoke wood to figure in, and if the WSM's been holding steady for what seems like a really long time I'm probably...

Don't wanna get busted? ;) We've had a 22 cu. ft. bottom freezer Amana for a number of years now. Every so often - like tonight, in fact - I have to empty the freezer, remove the rear panel and manually defrost the coils and fins. Apparently ours was an early model and the freezer duct tube...

If cicadas are considered delectable by the aforementioned possum as well as the other random critters that wander through the yard from time to time, maybe that's why I'm not hearing them. Maybe I need to listen for crunching and the occasional belch instead. ;)

I just stepped outside and listened, no cicadas. So maybe they're not here yet. Come to think of it, I haven't heard much from the peepers that're usually around, either. However, I did have to yell "You go home!" at the possum nosing around under the bird feeders.

Picanha! I cooked a few a few years back and they were quite good, especially when thinly sliced.

From what I've heard of Malort, cicadas are an improvement. June 20 is Cicada Night at the Kane County Cougars.;) We were in Brookfield (IL) last Saturday and could hear the cicadas. I heard them every summer when I was a kid, and it was actually a bit nostalgic.

Contact the seller/giver-awayer. If he'll hold it until Monday I'll pick it up and bring it along the next time I visit The Big Valley.

Since we're on the cusp of a holiday weekend and a lot of folks are going to be out ramblin' around...

Kudos to the costumers who did the quick-changes!

I'm thinking there's a way to work "ex-girlfriend" into the conversation...

"Closed" is important. Some sort of sole is great and it protects the bottom of the foot, but if the structure of the footwear actually traps an ember or coal that falls from above...

The way the grass has been growing, the only thing smoking for sure this weekend will be the lawnmowers! But there's a rack of small-farm spares in the freezer that I might be able to fit into the schedule.

Great steak, but spill a little on the potatoes! Just some oil and salt, or did you add something else? Nice depth of field, too!

And the Mysterians! (OK, I'm blatantly off the rails here...so sue me. ;) )

If your son actually recognizes those names he can't be all bad.;)

Apparently my younger self still exerts a highly unhealthy influence over my current self...;)
