I'm sorry that Big Poppa (who has been banned from the leading pellet cooking forum for childish behavior and thus stomped off and founded his own) carries a grudge. He'll gladly sell you a pellet cooker. I hope they raise a lot of money for charity, anyway.

- we be smoking, don't need a room I'll bring tents
- don't have to fly I'll drive
- Crown, Scally always said he would supply and I need a back up driver. Pappy Devo will be up for a road trip also
- Ft, up to Mr. T
