I'm surprised that Mr. Benander didn't break you of that habit in speech class!
-
Beefchop Good ol' Mr Benander! No, I don't do it when giving talks/speeches, (that I know of), only conversation apparently. Did you know he passed away a few years ago? He was one of my 3 most influential high school teachers. Ms Laitner was another. I had her in elementary school for music and high school for American Lit. Will always remember her.
-
Huskee I did hear that he passed and regret that I wasn't able to make it home for the funeral. I agree with you on his being an influential teacher! I had the privilege of impersonating him at one of our assemblies. Ms. Laitner was also a wonderful teacher!

It was another good pitcast. I do look forward to a followup wings pitcast with those guys and others (maybe even with Spinnaker). It would also be great to have one on pizza.Last edited by JimLinebarger; September 29, 2018, 10:45 AM.

I'm glad someone picked that up!

Oh, I picked it up, right away...
Jus didn't wanna mention it, in front of th kiddies... BBQCentralShow Huskee

Another great show BBQCentralShow & Huskee ! Crap, now I have pizza on the brain and will have to try to figure out how to fit into this weekend's menu.
About the splitting the brisket, I have tried doing it a few times and I felt kind of dirty doing it, like I was cheating or something. I didn't tell anyone for fear the BBQ gods would strike me down and I would be banished to a room where all they do is boil the ribs. Thank you for rescuing my BBQ soul.
Yeah, yeah, yeah...I know I'm behind on listening. I promise I will be all caught up by Christmas. In the mean time, keep up the good work!
