Depends on who's going to be there and what group it's being
hosted from. If Jill, Ranger, Paul, and Sheldon were going to be
there, for instance, I might travel up to 1500 miles.

There are other food get-togethers in other groups, especially
the local food groups (though maybe not strictly a "cook-in").
Somehow I always get elected to arrang the local food
get-togethers, but their hosted at restaurants that can tolerate
us.

And there are a couple a year in AFB/ABF. Which I didn't make
this year due to transportation/time constraints, but really
wanted to. That would have been 900+ miles.

When are you going to be in the area again. I'd set a special
gathering up just for you...

I'll take that as a threat. It's a date: See you the first week
of September. You'll know me when you see me.

Speaking of the Devil - 10 days without a Sheldon? Do we have
any volunteers to fill in for him?

LOL.

If you're back in the area, post a note in ba.food. I'm sure you'd
be surprised at the turnout (and the number not interested if
someone put your head on a pig pole...)

You could ask Dr. Richard Tubb, the Air Force colonel who performed
GWB's colonoscopy. After what he's seen, I'm sure he could recommend a
suitable replacement ...

Oh my! I'm flattered! Would you pay for my airline ticket?! <G> I'll pay
for the food I'd cook!

Just because you're a social disgrace isn't reason to project
that onto everyone else.

Since I've hosted some of the ba.food'ers here when they visit
Austin, I don't have any shortage of invitations when I arrive.
Your's has been the least genuine, of course.

Further proof the cocktails aren't work again Steve; have your
"therapist" adjust'em. Be sure to mention the bout of paranoia...

Ahh, the 'ol,l "I called him on something and embarrassed myself
miserably so I'll just call him a drunken lunatic instead"
cover-up. Come up with something we haven't heard before.

And you really need to practice on that misdirection technique of
yours.

<yawn> The 'ol "When all else fails, stop many any sense or at
all and maybe everybody will think I'm somehow intellectually
superior" ploy.

Boring. Let me know when you're done.
