ChuckAb3 Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Happy Monday all. Hope the weekend was good to you. We finished up the day with mesquite grilled ribeyes (her favorite) and the Jude Law movie 'Black Sea." Fine movie. Carl, thanks to you and the other mods for keeping this a fairly peaceful and civil place. Obviously not an easy task at times. It is appreciated. Cheers guys! Later. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 My oldest son was given his bachelors Finance degree on Saturday. It was bittersweet because his grandfather, who was a career educator and also a graduate from Marshall University passed away two months ago. We are all very proud of him. He is the president of the Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity, graduated in 4 years with 1 major and 2 minors, and is staying for another semester to finish 2 more baccalaureate degrees. My first son up to bat has put me in his dust. His grandfather would be very very proud, as I am! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallette Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Cooked for my wife last evening. Thai styled beef with green peppers and tomatoes. About 6 diced Thai chilis and a Serrano. She loved it. Rice sat too long and was a little chrunchy...but with the gravy it was still pretty good. We have Peet's dark roast at work, and done with it for the day. Monday...my video staff is at HQ in Tulsa doing a taping of our CEO and it's pretty quiet here. And I am also pleased to see peace and civility restored here. The only "moderating" I really want to do is blowing away swamis and other spammers. Dave Edited May 11, 2015 by Mallette 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted May 11, 2015 Moderators Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Missed alot here lately, been kind of busy, with the youngest daughter and family drove down here Friday from North Louisiana and left last night, so been a little busy. This is not unusual, but what made it unusual was my son-in-laws parents are visiting them for a few weeks from half way around the world. So of course they came to visit also, They speak NO English so this made it a little strange at first, the son in law had to translate everything. They are very nice people and we had a really good time showing them around, this is there first time to the US, and it was a real culture shock to say the least, they are from Saudi. So Saturday we went to the Zoo with all the kids which was there idea, next the good part, that night we took them to the French Quarter, this was quite the shock for them but in a good way. We walked down Bourbon street, listened to some music and ended up at café du monde for coffee and beignets. it lasted longer than that really, when we got home the sun was rising. Yesterday we just hung out here after getting up late, I smoked a meatloaf and some chicken, and we just hung out. I was a little worried how it would go but it was really good and we all had a good time. It was quite the experience, my son in law was in a car accident and had surgery so he is in a wheelchair, one of the reasons his parents are here to see him. But can you imagine pushing a wheelchair around the quarter, it was not easy so I just used the street, it's smoother than the sidewalks. It was fun Edited May 11, 2015 by dtel 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 That sounds like an interesting weekend! I have never heard of smoked meatloaf. If you would be willing to share the recipe, I would be very . I'm sorry to hear about the son-in-law's accident. Is the wheelchair permanent? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 At my son's baseball game and it's 50 degrees, and windy. Yes coffee is in order. Sounds like everyone is keeping busy. Hope everyone had a good mothers day. We celebrated my son's bday yesterday along side of mothers day. I smoked a ham, pork shoulder, and beans. I used my ugly drum smoker for the first time. Let's just I don't plan on going back to any other smoker. These things work great. Well cheers to you all and have a good one. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
