Posted: Jan 10 2009 Post subject: So, I met Burbs this morning |
|
|
My wife looked at me funny when I told her I was meeting a guy from the internets this morning before work....lol
Met up with Chris(aka Burbs) on my way to work to grab a bag of Wicked Good that he graciously ordered for us.
Come to find out, we are the same age, and he knows my boss...small world.
Anyway, thanks again Chris, this is what the Ring is all about..
On a side note, I am thinking us in the Northeast need to set up a meet sometime in the spring/summer! _________________ Pro Q Frontier

Funny, I also go to a jeep forum and once went to meet a guy that I met from online. My wife said something about it being Chris Hansen from Dateline. Wifes just dont understand. _________________ Traeger 124, 125 |

Sounds right for y'all up north - the episodes down south I've seen aired have sweet tea instead of lemonade!  _________________ Let's hope SoEzzy can ditch his heavy hand on photos in 2016!

actually, you were invited Tim, we even mentioned you. However, you said you were all set for fuel because you still have rancher.
I am seriously plotting a Spring/Summer get together for NorthEast Ringers...

I don't think its strange at all to meet someone from the net. I met one of my best friends on the net and fly in to see her a few times a year in Chicago. Its not any differnt then meeting anywhere else. _________________ He who laughs last, thinks slowest

Ringer get-togethers are always a lot of fun. We usually get together a few times a year for a happy hour some place here in Tulsa. Otherwise, we usually get together at competitions in the area. These are some of the nicest folks you could ever meet. _________________ Steve

Shoulda' called rprata. He stopped by my shop when I was in the Bucket. I think he's still there but I haven't seen him post in awhile.
Imagine two guys in Rhode Island having a common friend!
I had some great winter smokes and met some great BBQ friends when I was in New England. _________________ D. Tillery
