A few months ago another fairly frequent poster and Charter Member was chosen as the first of 2 contingent (backup) winners, but the main winner responded and it all went through. Of course I can't say who and all, especially at the time, but it was close!
I am really happy to see a frequent poster get selected as a first round winner this time! Although it's a honor for me to deliver the good news to anyone, it's a special honor to deliver it to such a fine fella as Mr. Bones. He really does deserve this and it made my week!

I don't know what many of you people have posted about this Mr. Bones person but he hasn't posted a single thing on this site before...a CRAP LOAD of things posted, yes, but not a SINGLE thing posted. When I read who won I actually said "Yah!" out loud! It's not that I am not happy for others that have won but having someone you read and laugh with everyday made it way better! Congrats Mr. Bones ! Have I missed it? Did you decide what to get? These congrats have now gone onto the 3rd page!
Mr. Bones Entertainment and education. Have to put on my Southern glasses to read 'em but that is port of the entertainment!
I also understand the researching part. Sometimes I research so much I don't buy anything 'cause cain't make up my mind. If you still can't make up your mind, maybe Huskee will give you an extension? Heard he was an 'ole softee!
Wow, I've been a member here for a couple of years and this is the first time (that I can remember) that a regular, contributing member has won. Couldn't happen to a better guy, congratulations Bonesy!
Well, yall, there's jus a whole dang dang Imperial Shite-Ton of cool things on offer, at present, an choosin is not easy, at all.
Blaze? That there is one fine-arse gas cooker, an would be th envy of all who beheld it...but, utimately, it wouldn't git used too often, which would make it sad, an lonely, an depressed. I'll not be responsible fer alla that guilt trip!
Broil King is undoubtedly a great cooker, but not where I'm headin, at present......
CyberQ is undoubtedly highly useful, an cool, but kinda eliminates my job position, tendin to my pit(s)...
So, my initial selections to pick from were/are, The Good One Open Range, Hasty Bake 256, PK360, an PBC...
All great cookers, all with their own merits, no doubt! ...
