Kili said they've got a Weber Smokey Mountain. I've heard very good
things about them. I wanted something bigger. The electric smokers
are kinda lame. From what I've heard they're only food for fish, and
that's pushing it.

Hey! Gig 'em Aggies!

My college was elsewhere and not near as interesting.

The weber will do a great job.

Your sister is a "tea sipper" as most Aggies would refer to the folks
from U of Texas.

I went to Redbird High School, aka Lamer on the Neches, aka Lamar
University in Beaumont, TX. It was close, my GI bill money paid the way
and it was a pretty good school for an older person to attend.

More like $5,000. $100 a gigabyte, depending on the type.

Four of us are going to Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, CA. We
will hear the SF Symphony and Lauren Bacall is doing a reading. They
usually have fireworks but might be cancelled due to fires and air
quality. We are taking the asian wraps from Costco, 2 salads (one
beet, corn and oranges and the other a jicama slaw) drinks, chips and
fruit and cookies for dessert . Should be tasty and easy. I hope
the weather will be OK.
Wishing you a safe and happy holiday,
Ellie

me.

Then you would probably not want to attend a "Big Fat Geek Wedding".

Probably not, but I just watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding this
week and it's just as good as ever. Too bad the TV show spin off
flopped.

You've been away from *work* for a few years and the "tech field"
consisted of you punching buttons on a computer at a restaurant. Nice
try, gold digger!
