Welcome to the IHoP

Bought a new bed yesterday. Suppose to be here tuesday. I can't wait!

I bought a king size Serta Euro Top. OMG is this bed plush.

Right now I have a king size Beautyrest I bought about 10 years ago, was plush up until about a year ago.

The technology mattress companys are using now is insane. My Beautyrest was top of the line 10 years ago and now its more like middle of the road.

OMG I can't wait, all I did last night was dream of my new bed. COME ON TUESDAY.

As a matress salesman I thank you. You're spine and joints do too.

I think the best money a person can spend is on a quality mattress, pays for its self over and over again.

I got the Serta at American Furtiture Warehouse on sale, out the door for 1200. I pick it up tomarrow!!!

I scored a new comforter at JCPenneys. They are on sale also. I got a pimp 300 dollar one for 130 bucks!!

Even better, everything bought with cash. no CC.

I already have a friend that will take my old mattress, SO I just have to drop it off at thier house on the way to the pick up my new one. Two birds with one stone FTW. The 460 drinks the gas.

Do you have any experience with the .300 min mag or .300 RUM?

Plenty of info out there with the win mag but the RUM cartidge seams to talk a lot about possible short barrell life. More so in the 7mm from what I read.... Any thoughts?

I'm still waiting to hear back on a possible time frame on the .338 lap.

Ever left the cap on in the smoker and rendered afterwards? Smoky tallow might be an interesting addition to a lot of dishes. I've never, but considering you are in Texas...

Neat idea, but I'd have to upgrade to an insulated smoker before I could try; usually takes 3-5 hours to fully render the fat, and on the Brinkmann that would require a second batch of coals

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

Spend more, get an insulated cooker and use just a little charcoal, or spend less, get a cheap tin metal cooker and use a lot of charcoal; either way you're gonna pay

I smoke at 200-225 depending on how fast I need the food, but had never thought of "catching the fat" and using it.

Time for some Japanese food tonight. Amusingly I am out of Japanese rice. I buy in bulk, so I am not sure how that happens. I guess I'll get to make a different variety.

But on the good side, I did get it installed and pumped the air in my "commuter" bike tires up to 80 PSI. It rolls a lot better now. Excited to commute to school on a bike now.. Hopefully that will help with losing more weight!

What did you get?

I'm riding a specialized expedition currently. It was given to me free a while back. I don't know how long I'll be riding it though, it shifts like shit and really pisses me off sometimes. Especially when you stand up to pedal and it slips into a new gear your foot slips off the pedal and hit the ground and the pedal hits your calf.

Going to the rec later and I'll definitely be riding my road bike.

80 psi?! that alot of presure! I only put 30 psi in mine, but then again it's not a road bike.

I run 120 in my front and 130 in my rear tires on my bike. My mountain bike gets 65. I HATE pinch flats.

I'm run 110 Front/Rear on my rode bike and 80 F/R on the "commuter" (the max they recommend)

The "commuter"

Rear or front sprocket slipping?

Wow, isn't that an ugly piece of shit.

I was thinking more along of the lines of throwing beef trimmings in one of those cheap throwaway aluminum roasting pans, placing in the cooker and letting it render on the residual heat from a smoking session but yeah your method would work too

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

I do miss having a local butcher shop; giant slabs of beef fat for practically nothing ftmfw
