Good to hear from you, Bix. Best of luck in your move. Do remember that barbecue is vinegar based in these parts. And Southern Baptist Chicken Mull dinner is as distgusting as it sounds.

Y' know, this "economic downturn" has really, really sucked. People losing jobs, losing homes, uprooting their lives.... BUT-- Sometimes out of the most unsettling circumstances come the best things that can happen to us.
Here's hoping (and praying, if you don't mind, Bix) that you'll find something really great that you might never have found in your old SoCal round.

Man, I love this Board!
I just got my flight info. I should be touching down in Cracker Central (Charlotte) around 9PM next Wednesday.
Vinegar-based barbeque, you say? Hmmmm.
GIMME GIMME GIMME!
I'll have to get over to Sky's place sometime and check out his vast collection. Hopefully NOT when a hurricane's a- callin'...

Good luck Bix, give 'em hell! They've already got hell in South Carolina. Hell IS South Carolina. Sorry, have to poke a little fun at our slightly slower moving and thinking neighbors. SC is purgatory at worst. Come see me sometime, Bix. Hop a train maybe.

Seriously though Bix I hope everything works out for you!

Thanks, Y'all!
I've been helping my brother & his wife with moving all there stuff into their new house in a ritzy town called Tega Cay here in SC. This place is pretty cool actually! (not the weather, though. 85 & muggy, usually, and it hardly cools down at night)
It's located on 12,000 acre Lake Wiley, which straddles the border with North Carolina. The place seems like a resort! I went swimming in 80 degree water yesterday, with no thought of shark attacks, even.
I haven't tried the barbeque yet Sky, but the cigarettes are only $4.22/pack!
And here in SoCar, we refer to North Carolina only when needed. Remember, the war of Northern Aggression began HERE. And the South's gonna do it AGAIN!
(Rebel Yell)
I need to join a local re-enactment group. Oh, wait. I'm a felon, so I'm not allowed to be around firearms. That's gotta be the best part of make-believe war, and I WON'T be involved if I have to just wrap bandages or drive a horse-drawn ambulance...
Anyway, things are great so far. Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts.
Bix
(sarcasm) "Bix cruises trains"...I'll get you, my pretty!
Edit:
I do have internet access at home now, so I'll be here more often. You guys are SO lucky!

I need to start posting LESS on this board. I hate it when I look at the main page and see BixDugan as the most recent reply on like, half of the threads. I've been playing an electronic trivia game called BuzzTime at the local bar. Ever heard of it? There's a website at Buzztime.com
You play against people, live, all over the country. I even had a Number 1 Ranking in National game, once, that got kicked down to a Number 2, so I have a Silver Medal. And one Gold Medal for my perfect game of Lexitopia the other night. But there were over 200 perfect scores for that too, too easy a game.
But a gold is a gold!
So if you happen to see the name Bix on a Buzztime scoreboard, it's me...
