Is that like regular dynamite but with a shorter fuse?

Yeah, my annual training conference on how to pimp Rx meds will be in Phoenix on the 5th and 6th of June.

The pressure is on Sean to keep up my perfect streak of liking the Axiomites I meet in person. I'm 3 for 3 so far: pmbuko, tomtuttle, kcarlile, and I sure hope I'm not forgetting anyone.

Where are you and Sean going to eat? That's key.

Well, if I can pass him off as my date, then he can join me at the welcome dinner at the JW Marriott.

We haven't worked out the details yet.

I have to warn you, I'm ornery and testy. . .or is that horny and sexy?

Hmm, either way, it's gonna be interesting!

Oh, yeah, JP, you'll have to squash Sean's advances, but other than that he's a hoot.

Should I tell JP I live in a nudist colony?

Since when does one constitute a colony?

My own brand of Fusion cuisine; listening to Tangerine Dream while making gumbo with chicken and Oktoberfest sausage.

Q - "What are you using to thicken the gumbo ?"
A - "What does a coyote say ?"

Made my first successful roux. I guess a roux is basically deep fried flour... very strange stuff when you look closely. Boiling oil is is a bit disturbing too.

Anyone have any recommendations on grilling beef ribs? I'll probably be doing my usual seasoning of tons of garlic salt and nothing else (per my wife's requirements), but I've had trouble not making sticks of carbon in the past. Any tips?

My father in law swears by the indirect heat method, but when I tried that, I basically just ran through a ton of propane and had lukewarm, raw ribs. Then I carbonized them, having little patience.
