Happy Thanksgiving, gang. Wow, made it. God is good. Grabbing a ph00 and not touching any food - - save the space for later.

Great link, Stan - - had to lay down and rest a bit after watching that. Stood up and fell down. Put that on full screen on my 27" monitor. Going to see it later when company comes on the TV. Wonderful.

Going to run - - be good and enjoy each other............

Bob

Have a safe and happy T Day and don't over do it

Cold and clear for today, may get into the mid 20°s. Mrs C has started on the feast. Should have plenty for any of y'all that might drop by. Just wipe your feet before coming in first.

Nah, I deliberately kept the really hot stuff away. Figured that most of you wimpy 'Merkuns and Canucks could not handle anything really hot.

I've consumed ghost peppers...and colors changed. I would sweat where I've never perspired before. Palms of hands, eye lids. All my teeth went numb. Best combo with ghosts or habanero's is buffalo chili.
Maybe you could mail some seeds to me. ?

Be careful about sending pepper seeds across the border. Marijuana is OK, crack would be fine, but for pepper seeds they'll hang you by your

Scotty, to the best of my knowledge, you do not need me to mail you any seeds. Just obtain some of the peppers of chilies that you want, remove the seeds and plant them. In some cases the seeds may need drying before planting. Start the plants indoors and wear gloves when harvesting. Did you know that habanero peppers are spicy at a Scoville heat unit measure of 250,000 units, but ghost pepper has a Scoville rating of 1,001,304!!!!!!!!

One ghost in a huge pot of chili sent one friend to the shower , another had to get his wife to come get him. I felt like I was going on a trip...it definitely works the central nervous system when it hits.

Wasabi habanero burgers are yet another experience.

My brother grew several ghost plants when he lived in Houston. I still have a few dozen dried ghost's. Had to put them in a glass jar. The plastic container began to distort and discolor.

I did my shopping on evilpay yesterday. Got a 3/8 ratchet set on the way. Might swing into sears and see if the $40 combination wrench set in their flyer is reduced in the store. They had their sale prices out already on stuff Wednesday afternoon but not on those wrench sets. Would help to have some metric wrenches since that's all the amigo's got on it.

The amigo's alternator was bad. Made funny noises when turning it, no output on bench test. Carquest was $2 more than NAPA but with lifetime warranty and had it next day. NAPA had one in the system in Washington would have taken 5 days.

Still a lot of money for a itty bitty 60 amp reman, but the regulator by itself is $100.

That's 1:30 AM by my clock. Don't you ever sleep?
Threw some remains out on the table. The crust on the punkin pie is made from almond flower. The wiped cream is the real McCoy. Organic turkey with stuffing made from no-wheat bread.

Single digits overnight and the ice fog persists. Might get snow tomorrow.

Something wrong down here in Florida. It is supposed to be a black Friday and the sun is outn, not a cloud in the sky, chilly at 66 degrees but gorgeous out. What is this thing about Black Friday? DUH. No black here.

No green here either - - treat us and bought a 65" LED Smart TV yesterday - - list price - - 1499, store price - - 1199 - - - yesterday price - - $688. Could not resist it. Gorgeous picture. My 52" LCD just didn't have it anymore after these LED's. Now they come out with 4G - - holly smoke they are expensive. I will wait 5 years and buy one for 500.

Grabbed me a ph00 and go watch pfffffuuuuutbaawwll. ...............
