[Jorge]

I will roll in Thursday night, does anybody need any Bourbon or other southern treats? PM me

I hope you had ample room in the PM box for that invitation:wink:

 

[Doctor Porkenstein]

We're going to this. I see there is a sausage category....what are the rules for this type of thing? Do they inspect your meat, or can you have it seasoned before you get there?

I wouldnt season it Alex

 

[Scottie]

I wouldnt season it Alex

Wait a minute!!! That salt lick sausage you turned in down in Arthur won you first place!!! So maybe heavily salt before hand??!!! I think I might be on to something.

 

[Plowboy]

I don't think they have inspected it in the past. Presentation is anything goes as long as it fits into the standard clam shell.

Parking In the Outfield

In the past I have been commisioned to take care of the parking in the outfield. But since I will not be there to do this I am handing this task over to Marla the team Chemist. She will be on site early Thursday morning and will be overseeing the parking in the outfield. If anyone gets out of line or has a problem with your spot, she has been sanctioned to contact Mike Lake and Mark Born, and they will kick your ass.
