    Just kidding!

    Twenty years ago I watched the Texas v. tOUS game with some friends, one if which is an aggy.  At the end of the game, he confirmed that he would still rather have their then head coach and quarterback over ours.

  2. Half the episode was Carol trying to keep the coyotes from eating her dead girlfriend . . . so I'm sure it's ends with her realization that all the other dead humans are being processed into food.  Remember when they offered to take care of the girlfriend's corpse early on?

    The question becomes - can the hive live off anything else or is it imperative that they eat Soylent to stay connected to the hive.  

  3. This is a good time of the year to keep the thread on the first page.  Someone that needs it* will see it, read it, think about it.

    *I read this thread and the one on Shaggy in the fall and winter of 2018.  Last drink was January 12, 2019

    It can be done in combination with a dry brine, or subsequent to a wet brine. I wouldn't personally do both.  The closest I've done after a wet brine is herb butter under the skin.

    Yeah.  I either wet brine or dry brine.  When using a wet brine, I rinse, season, then cook with no dry out in between.

  5. Stopped in Kyle this afternoon at Bloodworth BBQ today and was pleasantly surprised.

    Half pound moist brisket, pork ribs, pork belly, jalapeño and cheddar sausage, and slaw.  Everything was really good and reasonably priced.

    Brisket wasn't heavily seasoned so it didn't have a strong bark, but still tasted good. Simple glaze on the ribs with a good bite.  I tasted soy and brown sugar on the pork belly which worked well.  Sausage with a coarse grind and good snap.

    I'd be happy to eat there again.

    A bit of trivia from your 7th Grade Texas History class?

    Yep.  I wasn't born in Texas, but we moved here in 6th grade.  Since I was here for 7th grade Texas History, I consider myself a naturalized Texan.

    Any recs for insect repellent for a kid under 2?

    Karankawa Indians smeared their bodies with a mixture of mud and alligator or shark grease to ward off mosquitoes.

    Dove hunters show up with a swivel top bucket.

    So I got rid of my swivel top bucket years ago and replaced it with a nice camo directors chair.  At 6'4" its much easier on my knees.  I honed my dove hunting gear such that it fits in a back pack - mojo, decoys, ammo, shell/bird bag, and other random stuff.

    On Tuesday I met one of my older buddies for lunch.  He's decided that his hunting days are behind him so he had some stuff to give me - another mojo, another bag of decoys, a camo folding chair, a camo backpack, another shell/bird bag, and, you guessed it, a swivel top bucket.  I was hoping for a shotgun, but no such luck.
