from this to, the next pic 

getting some grass down, clean up started. 

The Last Rib.

Just found out my bro who comes over nearly every weekend to watch football and do his laundry and just hang out, likes my ribs.
I didnt think he cared one way or the other.
He missed ribs this sat. he went out of town.
I cook ribs nearly every sat.
If not on Sat. then on Sunday.
anytime your in town and want some good ribs give me a shout.
For all yall freaky veggie people, I have an organic garden, we can cook you up some of that crap also!
Me, I will stick to bourbon and coke, and any kind of food that use to run around some way or another.
Cow, Pig, are the first choice, then it would get complicated.
Chicken is not a meat, nor is fish, but they are better than veggies.
I guess after pig, I would go for seafood, then catfish, then rattlesnake then chicken.
chicken only higher than cat or dog cause I have never tried to slow cook them.
and realy, how many meals can you get out of a cat?
not many more than a rat.
never tried rat either, but slow cooked with the right seasoning, I bet it would be good. (the Rat not the Cat)

so come on over, we eat some ribs, and you might get lucky and it wont be the day I decide to see how cat or the rat taste slow cooked over mesquite!


And yes I have had rattlesnake, I even killed the SOB, skinned it, cooked it and then ate it!
and no it didnt taste like chicken. Tasted like bacon, cause we fried it in bacon grease! Next time I will slow roast it, heard it taste good that way.

Ohh, I did kill a squirl and tried to skin it so we could cook it up, but kinda messed up on skinning it, so have not got to try that yet.
And rabbit stew is awesome in the winter!

And the flying cicus monkey we killed was not one, so we didnt get to eat that.
now that is a whole nother story.

@#$#%%

While doing todays pour with son, walking with a wheel barrow full of concrete I stepped into the pool, falling in, hitting my knee, hurting my back and my still broke foot.
had to do a quick change, and keep going. cement dont wait on scraped knees or hurt backs!


Fell in pool while working 

I too can be President

Watching or rather I tried to watch some of the debate tonight.

DAMN

George is a better butcher of the english language than I am!
He make me sound like an english major from up north!

You have to have a very simple mind to think his ideas are correct.

partial birth abortion, its yes or no.

This was his reply after Kerry says what about when a Womans life is in danger?

It is never as simple as YES or NO but GW and his followers just dont get it.

I have decided until GW is no longer president I will tell people I am from Portales New Mexico!
