  1. MacKenzie decided to start the new year with a milk bath. So she gives the local dairy a call.

    Moo Milk Company: Yes, could I help you?

    MacKenzie: Yes. I would like to have you deliver 25 gallons of milk so I can take a milk bath.

    Moo Milk Company: Pasteurized?

    MacKenzie: Oh no. Just up to my waist.

  2. Sometimes it depends on the person with the horrible job of stacking the bags of lump. If he's miffed about his job, wife, kids, mother-in-law, he'll throw those bags and beat them into submission to get them stacked. I've seen it with charcoal, Dorito's, eggs...you name it. And if you buy the bags on the bottom of the stack...which are now the top of the stack, it'll look a bag of black sand from Hawaii. Get something that works for you and stick with it. You'll learn how it burns and adjust to it. 

  3. Tony has passed away and unfortunately has a free ticket to the giant Komodo known as Hell.  Satan greets him and gives him some choices:

    Satan: Greetings Tony, you can spent your afterlife in one of these 3 rooms.  Here’ s our first room.

    Tony looks in to see a guy on a rack getting stretched and he’s screaming.

    Tony: No thanks. That looks painful

    Satan: Maybe you’d enjoy room number 2.

    Inside the room is a fellow chained to a wall and getting whipped.

    Tony: That’s not how I want to spend eternity. Let’s see the last room.

    Satan: As you wish. Take a look inside room number three.

    Inside the  room is a bunch of people standing around drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes. However, they are waist deep in cow patties.

    Tony: The cow crap part sucks but it beats the other rooms by a mile. I’ll take it.

    As he enters the room a cup of coffee and his choice of smokes are offered. A short time later an announcement comes over a speaker…”Ok everyone, coffee break is over. Back on your heads.”

  4. Home Depot or Wally World should have it. I agree about the red bag Royal Oak lump. It's pretty good but too many unusable pieces.  It's what Big Green Egg lump is. Royal Oak has been making it for them. But give the briquettes a try.  You'll be hard pressed to find something wrong with them.  Sorry I got carried away earlier.

  5. This Royal Oak isn't cheap ass charcoal. It says right on the bag...100% all natural hardwood lump briquettes. That means no filler or other crap in it.  I've used it for at least 6 years and never had any problems with it.  There are some crumbs at the bottom but I'm sure that your $3 a pound charcoal has crumbs on the bottom of the bag too.  I paid a lot for my Komodo so I should pay a lot for my charcoal.  My smoke wood should be imported expensive stuff from very far away too.  We all know a hickory tree branch that fell isn't worthy.

    Speaking of great all natural lump charcoal briquettes, Weber makes a wonderful product.  It's $20 a bag for 20 pounds. It's on sale now at TruValue stores for $7.99 a bag. I won't buy it because my KK cost so much. 

     Lord have mercy. And to think that Tony is one of the smartest engineers in the country!

  6. A policeman pulls MacKenzie over for speeding in her Corvette. 

    Officer: Miss, do you know how fast you were going?

    MacKenzie: Yes, officer, I was going around 40 in this 25 zone.

    Officer: I'm glad you admit it. I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you a ticket.

    MacKenzie: Can't you let it go this time? I live just a half mile from here. I won't let it happen again.

    Officer: A half mile makes it worse.  Don't you know that most accidents happen within 5 miles of your home? 

    Mackenzie: No sir, I didn't. 

    So the next day MacKenzie moved.

  7. 20 hours ago, Tyrus said:

    Funny you mention that, a few years back I wrote a piece here somewhere lost to the archives explaining the difference and history related to this choice. Yah see a few years ago and unbeknownst to Dennis I hooked a ride on Bali Airlines, 3rd class with the luggage, it was kind of a clandestine mission. I arrived on the island and observed the plant from a distance. What I discovered regarding the tile/pebble dilemma would amaze you, a factory secret which should only should be shared between you and me. Yes, the tiles as C6Bill has stated were broken tiles refurbished on a grinding wheel and incorporated into a new line. Now don't mention any of this to a pebble owner, they'll just say "that's just horseradish," and try and change  the subject.  Don't be dissuaded, follow your own path...I have the blue denim, only because I have always liked faded jeans. Get the Roto, Dennis will make you an "offer" you can't refuse.

    That's just horseradish.  Now let's talk about the Saints.
