Gotta admit the Hank Hill reference got me too. Funny stuff. But grilling with propane is, well, for guys who cat-sit.  

Hey, how bout that! I'm first on page 400.

I agree, much rather grill the old fashion way..  Propane takes the tast away..  Also Blu, even though it's WI, I still grill year round.  Just shovel a foot path to the grill and get to work.  Almost bought a house that had a grill in the basement...  Wife thought it might be a fire hazard

Actually I prefer charcoal myself but when you're only cooking for 1 you're eating steak in 10 minutes with propane; not waiting another half hour for the coals to get ready. So sometimes a compromise is in order.

I prefer digging a pit, filling it with firewood, and setting it ablaze.  When the fire dies down throw a bunch of aluminum foil wrapped meat on the coals, cover the foil wrapped meat with wet boards, and cover the wet boards with dirt.  Next day uncover the pit and enjoy your feast.  Unfortunately, I'm affraid most campuses would frown on this type of food preparation.

I don't think that would fly at an apartment complex either.

Hey, Blu.  It's a bye week for my team so we're getting up early in the morning to get on the plane for Lincoln.  If the Horns lose, blame it on the Okie, but we'll be up in Section 20 with the other "visitors"

At the airport.  Jettin' up to J-ville this AM.  Looks like it'll be a nice weekend culminated by a Blueboy romp!

Roop- When we meet, you'll be quick to realize, I never compromise when it comes to food...

Tmerton- I envy you.  I've wanted to see a game in Lincoln.  That'll be a good one.  Not holding out much hope.  I've gotten the impression we've pissed them off one time too many.  Went to my first Red River Rivalry game.  That'll be a one-time thing.  Too much hate for my taste.  I've heard the fans in Lincoln are the best in the country. Something tells me that they may suspend some of their behavioral expectations...  Travel safe.  Hook'em Horns!

Let me know how long your stay in Beloit will be, what your looking for and I'll provide you a list of Roop approved restaurants. J.A.K.S. sports bar (actually in South Beloit, IL) has the best "scenery" if you know what I mean

Why the negative Karma?

[SNCOLDAD]

I didn't do the negative karma, but I wish you could count also. MWC has 10 teams, which means 5 games.

Also, as I was reprimanded when I was a youngster on this board, it is St. Norbert. No s.
