Kipper will eat just about anything. Even that poor excuse for
BBQ I bought at the BBQ place next to the IGA in Bryson City.
A word to the wise, I tried the beef and the pork and both were
just not good. I was disappointed because the only Yankees I
ever knew who could do BBQ right were my grandpa and the black
guy in the plywood shack next to the railroad tracks on Missouri
Avenue in East St. Louis. All the rest of the really good BBQ
I've ever eaten has come from south of the Mason-Dixon line.
(Hint: if it's covered in Maull's thick red goo, it ain't BBQ.)

... To tired to unlace boots
and pour a Manhattan, but I am working on conditioning in order to guide
Jeff Miller into Slickrock next spring.
If you could just treat us a little nicer on the net we might invite you to
join us,.

I won't fish with chronic top posters.
