That's ok, Cape. Really. You staying home was a good thing.

I don't think I should catch the grief for Arthur dropping a pizza. That's like blaming Tom Brady when one of his minions farts around with the footballs.

And yes, I did just compare myself to TB12.
 
I think what I hear paul saying, is he was making pizza, but putting his own spin on it. I'm totally cool with that. You should open a pizza tasting room.
 
Now hang on a minute Paul. Deep freeze a softball size scoop of ice cream, cover in chocolate, wrap in puff pastry. Freeze again then cook in said pizza oven. Brilliant hot pastry on the outside... cold yummy ice cream on the inside.
Come on now... this could work!

She's a friggin' genius. I don't even like chocolate, or ice cream, and I'm on board with this.


I'm so f'ing lucky to be friends with experts on every f'ing subject under the sun.

You are. I could even help you learn to make beer, or set up a brewing rig so that it can do more than heat water to a simmer.

Seriously. That brisket was wicked awesome. Please make it again soon.

She's right. Again. Your brisket was fantastic. And I'm just not saying that to get invited next year. I'm hoping for a venue with indoor plumbing.

I did enjoy the "hey..the top isn't cooked..lets flip it over and let is cook that way for a bit" method :)

OMG- I forgot about that!!!!! That actually came out pretty good, in the end. Poor Arthur- he felt so bad about that.
 
Enough with the killing me about the bathroom. I'm about to kill the contractor already, I don't need to be encouraged.

Besides, we had a toilet, a sink and a shower. Show me where it says they all need to be in the same room. (Or in the case of the shower, actually inside the house)
 
The airline offered a private jet to bring it back but she left it at my house till next year.

This is the same airline that left me in San Diego in June, by cancelling a flight and then not having any other flights for several days. And on my way home this time, sent me a text while I was in the air about "rebooking my flights". Then, when I went to the gate, there was no plane. Oh, the sign said "BOARDING" and I ran the entire way, but there was no plane. No. Plane.

Now, I'm no employee of Delta, but even I know that when there is No. Plane. at the gate or even in the vicinity, we are not boarding. After Bob left to go to the airport to pick me up at my planned destination, I was told that there was No. Plane. But they would try to find a plane. And then we would board the plane. When they found one.

I told the gate agent that I was not happy, and she smirked. I think she agreed that I didn't look Happy. I probably more resembled Dopey or Sleepy after arising at 3:30 AM to travel. I dunno, maybe Grumpy. But not Sneezy, as I'm a germaphobe except for cheese.

Still, there was no plane. No breakfast (it was 11 AM central by then), no lunch, no beer, nothing. So, Delta brought a drink cart and offered soft drinks and pretzels. Seriously, at the gate in Minneapolis, she was pushing the beverage cart.

Delta sucks. Bad. And it is the only airline servicing our area, within 250 miles.

It was at that point that I fondly recalled Paul's awesome pizza oven and the great time I had making pizza. I would have killed for a piece of burnt raw pizza at that point.

You all don't know how good you have it. You had beer.
 
Yes, patiently waiting for you to show up.

You weren't there, so I had to accept the Masstoberfest Cup since no one else would.


I can't believe I missed a chance to meet THE Yooper. After all the stories Paul and Bird have told over the years not one mention that you were going to be there.
 
Not that it would have made a difference but it would have been nice to see everyone. I was debating coming and bringing my boy, but him seeing Pauls house on fire would have raised too many questions. "Dad, why was that large man burning all that food?" "What is that awful smell?"
 
Your assuming that I read all the dribble this thread and the other has. If id read all this and the football thread, I feel that I'm dumber than normal and that's pretty dumb.


I hate to bust your bubble but you condensed a six hour brew day into three hours of agony so that you could go to the opera. You are WAY dumber than normal
