    This is my last Post. . .

    Dutch, Good luck with the move, give us a shout when you get things back in order. Just remember to keep your priorities striaght. Get in the new house, set up the puter and get the smoke rolling again. Or maybe it's get the smoke rolling WHILE you get into the new home and set the puter up. Mike

    Ribs and Shrimp

    Earl, Congrats on the new home and especially the BIG screen tv. The menu sounds very good. I can recommend the shrimp they were good. Although I did over cook mine a tad.
