Re-Imagine

Boston Butt

I put a butt on the Big Green Egg last night at 11:30 PM and took it off the grill 12 hours later.  Good, good stuff!  The BGE is the best, and I feel like I am getting better and more confident…

For Father’s Day, Angela got me a meat themometer that is wireless.  Good stuff because now I don’t have to open the grill to check the temp of meat.  Thank you baby!

I plan on doing ribs next.  They are much more difficult to cook properly.  And speaking of ribs, I was in Kansas City last week and went to eat at a BBQ place named Jack Stack.  Oh my!  I was very impressed with everything!  Ribs were very tender.  They weren’t better than Dreamland but different, if that makes sense.  Yummy!

Rental Car

I am driving a rental because I crashed my Pathfinder.  When the rental place told me I would be driving a Mazda, I was not very excited at all, but that all changed when I pulled out of the drive!  The Mazda 6 is a really fun car to drive!  This one is only a 4 cyclinder, but it has pep and drives very good on the interstate as well.  VERY fun to drive.  Zoom, Zoom!

 I don’t think I will ever buy a Mazda, however I have been pleasantly suprised.  Oh, the biggest plus:  I got 480 miles on a tank of gas!

How to keep talent...

Sometime back I was in a conversation about how you keep your best talent from leaving.  One person mentioned that he knows a fellar that just pays his best people about 25% more than they can make anywhere else!  

I wonder if this guy is pleasant to work with.  And what happens when he runs out of money?  Will his talent stick around?  I wonder.

Hoover Hoochies

It’s that time of year again: Baseball Season!  I love baseball and I really love Fantasy Baseball.  The Hoover Hoochies won their first championship last year on a shutout by Cole Hamels on the last day of the season.  This year’s team is ok.  I think I will need more offense, although I really like my pitching staff.

 Go Hoochies!
