Morning all. Today is the anniversary of my arrival in this weird world 55 years ago.

You know what? I'm happy to have all three and break the tie..... Where would you consider Central to all three to be? Southern Missouri?

So for the unwashed…here’s your BBQ primer…

NC BBQ - split into Eastern NC (vinegar based sauce w spices) and Western NC (Tomato/ketchup/molasses or sweet)
SC BBQ - mustard based sauce. Good but not my fav…

Both of these mainly piggy

Tennessee - Dry rub spice
KC - a mix of dry rub spice and sweet sauce

Mainly beef and Tennessee mostly ribs

TX - spicer sauces with a healthy mix of the rub and others. Brisket is king

BBQ is kind of like sex…even when it’s bad…it’s still pretty good!

My life partner’s daughter is in ER with neck and joint pain, headache, and entire body rash. They are doing CT and spinal fluid test. Say a good word for them.

Yep.... she wants to plan our trip we r gonna take 10 days or so and meander around...

BTW how was the home visit!!! Is your lady wife doing ok?

That sounds like a great trip!

Thanks! Time off was hectic but very enjoyable... my Lovely Wife is doing well, but we're both very tired of the relentless winds we've been having.

Thoughts and prayers coming B2.

I’m glad you got to spend some QT with your dad in his final phase. I’m sure it meant a lot to him too.

Thanks! We had fun, were extremely tight, and yes, he told me stories he'd never shared with anybody.

LOL! When my uncle and I would go fishing he’d always bring Vienna Sausages and/or potted meat to snack on. He would tell me they were monkey peters!

Good morning L2WU

 

[BlackSatinKnight]

Good morning everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve logged on, and real life events are dragging me away from Lit. I’ll still pop in occasionally, but I wanted to thank everyone here. This is the one board where I could open up, get on my soapbox, and generally be myself without posing for the rest of the world. I hope you all stay safe and take care.

Morning all... that bad weather skipped my neck of the woods. Coulda used some precipitation, but not complaining

And for whatever reason he loved Godzilla movies. So do I!

Never got into the traditional Godzilla movies but the one with Matthew Broderick and Jean Reno? I've watched that one more than half a dozen times.

Sometimes best not to know..... hahaha

Skip my post! Skip my post!!
Decades ago, one of my brothers did Storytime with my youngest sibling. He told the story of "The Making of a Hot Dog". She hasn't eaten one since.

Morning all. Today is the anniversary of my arrival in this weird world 55 years ago.

Happy Birthday!!
Hotdog's on me

Keep us posted, B2! I hope it's something easily treatable... sounds very scary rn though.

Certainly true of the big box gyms

Long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away... I joined one of those Big Box Gyms.
Three days later I was diagnosed with Mono.
Almost needed an Act of Congress to break that contract.

Good morning everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve logged on, and real life events are dragging me away from Lit.

Good to see you!!
RL has been known to interfere w/ Lit from time to time.
No worries - just happy to see you as time permits.

Parenting continues even when they are adults. I worry and hold my tongue unless I see something that is self destructive. Watching their mistakes hurts but realize I had to make mistakes to learn too.

Yep, got one I just shake my head at. In general, this one is pointed in the 'right direction'. But there's a whole big pile of lessons waiting to be learned the hard way. This one has never wanted to learn lessons taught by others, always wanted to learn them the hard way. The "pain method" of learning seems to stick better here. Had one "big scary lesson" jut the other day (OK, it really was nothing, but seemed huge from their perspective. LOL! ). Rather than call and ask advice first...

Like I said, headed in the right direction in general, just zig-zagging between some life lessons on the way.
