[Spinaker]

Thanks for the kinds words JGrana. I am happy to help in any way I can. I look forward to hanging out for a long time!

[JGrana]

Congratulations J.R., your going to make a great moderator! Your comments on how AmazingRibs and all the great folks on these forums have made such a positive impact is spot on! Since joining I have gained an incredible amount of knowledge listening and asking questions. Not to mention discovering the KBQ. You have been one of my favorite "commentators", great to see it will continue that way!

Not a bad place to be...gets a bit hot in summer but no snow in winter.(except for some mountains)

[Amajeff99]

Thanks for the interesting Bio. Lots of common interests.

[Spinaker]

Nothing would make me more happy. I might actually stay down there!! Steve Vojtek Down under I mean!

[Steve Vojtek]

Agreed the GBR is a beautiful gift from nature. Maybe one day I'll see you there? (Under water)

[Spinaker]

Actually, I have never sailed in my life. But the name comes from a character in Tom Clancy's novels. He is the backdoor connection inside the Kremlin. He, Jack Ryan and James Greiier "keep the back channels open" to avert total nuclear war between the US and Russia. I chose it as an online alias years ago and just stuck with it.

[Spinaker]

Hahaha I don't know about legend.

[Spinaker]

I mean y'all do have a little thing called.....THE GREAT BARRIER REEF!!!! hahahaha, not a bad place to start. Although you'd have to head north east for that, but man that would be worth it!

[PJBowmaster]

So John, I have to ask how you chose the handle of Spinaker? I did not read about a passion for sailing in your bio....

[lschweig]

It is always nice to learn a little bit more about someone you are interested in. Great new avatar as we cal clearly see the man behind the legend.

Nice to get to know you BBQ brother. Wow only 32? At your age I was still partying and going to nightclubs. Of course I'm over that now. Nice hobby scuba diving - as a kid I used to love snorkeling. Exploring the bottom of the sea ( not too deep of course. ) Maybe I can make time for a new hobby?

[Breadhead]

Oh... you do have a legitimate job huh.🙈 I bet you could make a really outstanding loaf of bread on your very first attempt like some of the other guys have. There really is science involved in making sourdough bread. All you are doing is igniting a chemical reaction.👍

[Spinaker]

Thanks! We are gonna have many more KBQ cooks to post in the future! I am excited for you to get that baby rolling.
