Guys, we're a very small community, almost a family ::). I hate to tell you how many times I, my brother, or a cousin has thrown his or her napkin on a Thanksgiving dinner table, stormed out of the room shaking their heads in red faced anger only to return in 15 minutes, smiling and reaching for a second helping of turkey. We should be able to discuss uncomfortable subjects, disagree, get pissed, and then come back to the table and enjoy each other's company.
BTW Kirk, I taught Grasshopper Kummok everything he knows about making bait. ;D
I, of course, have refilled my drink at a distance.

I was in Orlando a couple of weeks ago. It was realy hard to come back here to ND. Went from 90deg to 40. :'(
40 is not bad. From my recollection from living by the peace garden your still good for another drop of 80 f degrees. I will say though 40 degrees in SD is the coldest I could ever feel.
I agree TOMG, I got time for one more round and a six pack to go ! Let's have
one verse of kumbiya before lights out and be back in form by breakfast.
One big smokin' family :)
Nite Ya'll,
Coyote

Guys, we're a very small community, almost a family ::)......
I've used that statement before to describe some of my staff meeting experiences....."we're family alright, the MANSON family!" ;) ;D
The simple fact is that, for the majority of us, we are a web presence personality and have a "virtual relationship". If/when true friendships arise out of the forum, (and I can attest to the fact that they have), that is a great thing. Regarding the recent "discourse", Olds and others were party to, Olds and I have been a BS web presence for a few years and we get along just fine off-line, on the phone AND on-line but I look forward to the day when we can actually sit together sip a brew (without a cigarette...GO Olds!) and look at the sunset, (discussing whether it is setting a little more to the left or to the right ;)).
Grasshopper Kummok appreciates your wise counsel oh ancient one ;) and it is indeed good advice in order to allow adult discourse and yet not lose anyone to collateral damage.....the "off-smoking" topics boil down to little 1's and 0's on a screen and are certainly not anything to lose sleep or "virtual" friends over.
I've seen quite a few forum battles on this forum over the years, but nothing yet that's worth falling on my sword over. I probably enjoy the discourse too much, but after 35+ years in emergency response service I'm used to facing fires of all kinds and STILL look forward to not only the heat, but the forging that occurs as a result....must be some Italian in me but I CAN'T imagine life with out some heat, smoke & spice ;)
P.S.
21°F up here this morning.....perfect for keeping salmon cold until they get into the fridge!
I know im a nut case.Just dont tell my wife. ;D.Very well said i resemable that remark :D.As long as everything thing is low and slow.Its going to be alright.Guys once again its miller time.Have a great weekend enjoy. ;D ;D ;D

I'll second that one.
My doctor told me cut it down to two cans per day Icerat4 It took some looking around and some damn tough deciding( too many choices)
but I finally found the perfect brew for me.........it comes in 64 oz. cans
