    Thanks, Dan.

    I did so many mods to that smoker, and was on forums discussing that brand where guys said they can really "dial it in," but that's not been my experience. I never thought of EWEtube to find guidance on that smoker. Of course, Craigslist might be a source for a decent smoker.

    My husband enjoys "smoking stuff," too. But his equipment looks like this...

    Back in the 70s (maybe even earlier) there was an chain of 6 record stores (Penguin Feather), one of which was in an old tiny house on the main drag in Vienna. They all had a head shop in the back.

    You walked through the classic bead curtain into the world of paraphernalia. They are no longer around, but have a Facebook page.

    I guess there's a connection between this and the burnt ends D.B. posted ;) I'm feelin' a little toasty myself.

    There used to be what seemed like hundreds of head shops in the Houston area. Or so I've heard. :D

    Hey @John Brunner I grew up in the same small town as you, just in a different state :D. The record / head shop in my little slice of heaven was I B C N U.

    @Beth Gallagher I haven't seen Zig Zag in a month of Sundays . Just your husband Gracie? I can see you fighting for that coveted middle spot ;)

    Oddly, I have never smoked pot or done any drugs. I tried pot once when I was about 30 years old and it made me cough. :D I will have a beer, however.

    I smoked pot a few times, but it tasted awful and either did nothing for me or it made me feel tired and stupid, neither of which I was looking for.

    It feels like a 100 degrees in the shade right now so no BBQ. I like hubby to grill out though.

    I wish my hubby would BBQ or grill stuff, but he sucks at it. He just doesn't know how to cook anything, bless his heart. :D He will light the charcoal and clean the grill, but meat is too expensive to let him ruin it, haha.
