another smokin day

Really, it wasn't much of a deal.  I smoked a chicken yesterday for evening meal.  Dinner for you Nashvillites.  It was quite good.  Used mesquite instead of Hickory.  I don't think it imparted as much smoky flavor as hickory.  This AM it is 30 and sunny.  May get to 43.  I think I'll crank up the Road King for a couple mile ride if the roads are dry.  Nbraska killed K-state last nite in b-ball.  That was fun.  Also watched "who the $^%# is Jackson Pollack" it was good. not great.  I'd recommend it though.  Found an old Motorcycle documentary from 1971 called "On any Sunday"  I'll be getting that on Netflix soon.  Some of you folks out there should watch it.  It has some good footage of Malcom Smith riding trials bikes over rocks, logs etc.  Plus some early motocross footage and enduro riding.  Goin to church to fite with the little kids.

Hi kids.  Took me 15 minutes to get to this little screen.  Some password problem.  I was just about to quit.  I get so disgusted, then Darlene is disgusted at me for being disgusted.  I sure am spelling disgusted a lot.  It is disgustingly cold here today and worse tomorrow.  I can't wait til spring.  I just wish it could be here tomorrow and all the work I need to have done could magically be done also.  Please pray that it will be so.  I smell the pork chops cooking so without further comments I am about to eat.  I'm looking forward to finding out whether I will have a grandaughter or grandson Jan 20.  I hope the little person will co-operate with the Doctor ow whoever is doing it.

Happy new year!
I'm finishing a Starbucks coffee.  Went to the Groc. store to get half and half and came back with 40 beef sticks, 3 odd little cheese samples, some rib-rub and a fresh smart-chicken (brand name, not an actual smart chicken).  Darlene is preparing enchiladas for NU vs Clemson game.  Funks and Keith and DeAnne are planning to watch the game with us.  We had a nice christmas here with all the kids, spouses, friends etc. home.  Smoked some chicken in my new smoker that kids gave me. Turned out really quite good I thought. It will be used again this weekend on some meat of some kind.  Thinking of growing a beard and not shaving it off until I go over 1000 units over my corn sales goal, or until I get 100 rejections.  We watched " No country for old men" last night.  Sure wish someone would explain this movie.  Maybe there is no explaining it. Michael, fill me in if you can. If you see someone with a pixie cut carrying a bottle of compressed air, I'd steer clear until you can establish that he is only killing livestock.
