Huh, @TAKODA had similar advice. Maybe you guys are on to something 

I've been trying to avoid that thread. Figured it would quickly turn into a fully engulfed dumpster fire.

@desertshox I do find it a little surprising that the tanks aren't required to have the standard hazmat label on them. That would make sense  This was the first time I've ran into the waiver requirement. This supplier is the largest propane vendor in the county. Not sure if they're being overly cautious/stupid or what. I assume they will continue this procedure, at least until they realize it really does them little good. My best guess is, they had one little issue and their lawyers kneejerked to this ridiculous idea.

This reminds me - how absurd is it that pharmaceutical companies have to advertise "Do not take [medication] if you may be allergic to [medication]"

I get it's legalese but it makes Americans seem like idiots.

If we didnt have to litigate everything to make a quick buck. There are things that need warnings but damn everything is taken to an extreme.

It turned out a little better than normal. Times past I’ve just rubbed it with black pepper and smoked it and it was pretty good. This time I put a few more things in the rub and then when it hit 165 I coated it with honey Dijon and brown sugar, covered it and took it to 200. But I didn’t get that sticky glaze consistency I wanted. Next time I’ll probably wait until it’s about 195, then glaze it and turn up the heat for a bit.

To get the sticky you want keep it uncovered after you coat it the second time, final hour is what we do. 

@man eating mastodon Yeah, I suspected that would be the case and should've known better. The recipe I was sort of following had it going on at 165 and then getting wrapped. I pretty much knew it wouldn't get sticky/glazy but wanted to make sure I got the flavors in there. Next time I'll just unwrap it about an hour before it's done and then put it on.

Paul is six different kinds of awesome.

@knapplc I remember that thread when his book was coming out. I started reading at that time but it became torturous reading/knowing what made the program great yet here we were after Callahan, in the final days of Pelini and then mediocre Mike. I just couldn't take reading it anymore at that time (thus my previous name Comfortably Numb). I had forgotten about it but luckily I stumbled across it in my Kindle books a few nights ago and now that I know things are headed back in that direction with the program I can once again read those stories and accounts and be happy about it rather than discouraged.

I'm sad to say I have both volumes, trade paperback, and I've never read them. Paul put in a lot of work to produce them. I need to dive in.

When I go missing, please have the authorities check @GSG ‘s basement.

I always decline @GSG‘s party invitations. Something always seemed off about them, like the Super Bowl watch party in December.

I'd go so far as to say caps lock Friday is a capital offense.

Hmmm, I don't think so. He would've buzzed in and got it wrong.

....and 2 separate tailgating recipe threads.

I'm so excited I could s#!t

And you will if you eat the wrong canned chili....and probably the right one too.

Morning Wood. We have a new leader.

Well I did not know you meant that my bad. Please chill as I did not realize you were referencing stupid mistakes. You said bench them for making mistakes and I would just disagree but you must be mentioning the dumb mistakes. Stupid mistakes such as Roughing the passer, yes you give em a talking to. Scott will never change his mantra though.

He did. He benched lamar jackson and marquel dismuke

And tyjon lindsey

Sorry, I felt the way this game was going that inexcusable stupid mistakes we're obviously what I was referring to.

These night games are probably tough for Riley.

Put good tequila in glass. Sip. Repeat.

Here's what I came up with and they were pretty good.

6 oz Tequila

2 oz Triple Sec

4 oz Frozen Limeade Concentrate

8 oz Frozen Sliced Strawberries

Put all that in blender then fill with ice.

Also made some with Frozen blueberries. Had to add some Agave Nectar (2-3 TBS) to the blueberry because they weren't sweet enough.

Wanted to make some plain lime ones (or coconut) and then layer them red, white & blue but it was a bit too hot out and I knew they wouldn't layer well without slightly freezing them first and I wasn't that ambitious.

I did get a bottle of Cabo Wabo Anejo. Liked it a lot plain....very smooth. And no, I didn't waste it on the frozen margs.

I will say I just perused the Huskermax site and the ads did not appear overwhelming and I experienced no pop ups. Sure they’re there but they were fixed in place so I could tune them out. Maybe it will be tolerable.

@JJ Husker, the pop ups are very sporadic, can not exist for months. I’m pretty sure they’re unintentional. See the cafe forum there for some examples of problems people have ran into.

@JJ Husker my only qualm with digital advertising is what kind of impact it has on site performance and load times. Certain types of digital ads (particularly one kind known as programmatic in the industry) can cause sites to take anywhere from 5-15 seconds longer to load. Google started penalizing sites that utilized pop ups within the last couple of years, but that hasn't stopped them from being used, of course.

Overall, digital ads have never really bothered me. I know I'm going to be served them, so if I'm going to be served them, they might as well be targeted to my interests. Part of this may be because I'm almost 30 and digital ads have just been a part of most of my life practically. Advertising is also how most online content publishers subsidize themselves. Look at The Athletic. They require a subscription and don't serve any ads, but they also have YET to turn a profit, and it's still unclear if they will. People want their cake and they want to it eat it, too.

@cheekygeek I'm about 50 miles north of Denver and the news stations are saying it's another bomb cyclone. I'm guessing their meterologists know how many millibars it has dropped....or maybe they just wanted to use the phrase again 

It ended up being a fairly minor snowstorm, but the mixture of rain/sleet/snow made the roads very icy after the sun went down last night.

Yeah it was a pretty lame "bomb cyclone". When I was a kid they would've just said "it might snow" and that would've covered it. Laughably, businesses we're closing and people going home early. I blame movies like Sharknado...

I love liver and onions... one of my favorite meals. Soak it in milk for a few hours first and it takes out the "gamey" taste.

Yep, that's how I do it also. Soak it in milk, light flour breading, and fry it......when my wife isn't home cuz she can't stand the smell of it. That's why I usually get it if it's on the menu when we eat out.

The liver I get, but I don’t think human bodies are suppose to have onions. Glad they are in good health though.

I did inject. 1 part Johnny's aus jus, 1 part Deschutes Obsidian Stout beer and 1/2 part water. Rubbed with black pepper, salt and granulated garlic and a little red pepper flake. It seems to be stalling at about 163. I'll let it go for a couple hours (or if it gets to 175) and then wrap it. Looks like it's going to be breakfast instead of a late lunch.

Well it's done. It stalled for a coupled hours at 158-160. I wrapped it at 163 and reduced the heat from 240 to 225. I should've adjusted my start back since it was about 4 lbs. lighter than my initial plans. I thought it would take 16 to 20 hours and I wanted it done by lunch or supper so started at 5pm but it only took about 12 hours. Didn't get much sleep. It turned out just the way I wanted. Was able to slice (barely) the Chuck roast portion for French Dips but the rest literally fell apart so it will be pulled beef for BBQ sandwiches. Seems to be moist, tender and perfect. I will say though that I prefer pulled pork over beef. I never have been a huge brisket fan and this is very similar but with a beefier flavor. Now to grab 3 more hours sleep before lunch and the ball game.

I think Chris is alright....

It's the same play as Dez in the playoffs a few years back, same rule, interpreted 2 different ways.

The Bryant no catch is more like the James no catch for Pittsburgh this year.  He catches the ball, yes, but he's going to the ground and reaches out to try to score a touchdown which causes the ball to touch the ground and pop up.  Again not a good rule, but correct as written.

And I bet my paycheck he stays. 

@JJ Husker Thanks!

@GSG I couldn't believe nobody had already posted that status. My son texted me and I got on HB and nada except a few comments on his profile in recruiting. How far we've (HB) fallen.

@ #10 MSU in 2014. We lost 27-22.

@ZRod That game was embarrassing for the first ~48-50 minutes. To be honest, our comeback began when most had already flipped the channel.

In terms of competitiveness of the games, I think Michigan State has been the best series since we joined the conference. Shame they're not in our division like they were the first couple years.

@ZRod yeah but that’s 12 over and you look like trouble  so the cop obviously knew what he was doing 

The other annoying thing is my detector had signaled the laser tone about 15 seconds before he got me and I just ignored it. X or K band is one thing but the laser tone is usually for reals.

@JJ Husker it was in my dad's black 300C after a concert. That Hemi got me! Truth be told it was so much smoother than my Camaro I had no idea I was speeding. 

I feel like if the laser goes off you're already screwed.

Still hasn't let me turn on Gameday in her room tho....

Divorce? 

DOH!   Hope she's doing well.

Everything went well. I'm ready to go home and sleep. 1.5 hours (in a chair) since 6AM Friday morning ain't cutting it.

@OH HSKR FAN did your mama tell you not to go?

...probably because Eli was coming.

....,to Apollo by the bay....
