"... On the east coast they have slaves and they believe in slavery.. and made in China". WTHeck?  "... They have fruit trees and vegetable trees. That's where fruits and vegetables come from!" It's almost so obvious and stupid, that it's smart...  To answer an earlier question, Santa Maria and Santa Cruz are not close together. Santa Cruz is up near San Francisco... I really don't have anything positive to say about Santa Cruz (other than it's scenic location), so I'll just leave it at 'Go Banana Slugs'. 'Nuff said. Thanks for the informative video, Neill, I think I recognize that young lady as one of the current advisors on Obama's stimilus package team.  And I agree with Wood_Junkie, Santa Cruz is located in one of California's most beautiful areas, but it is best to look around and just pass on through. |

I`m sorry to hear that I should just pass on through because Margaret and I are booked into a B&B in Santa Cruz on evening of May 24th. |

It's fabulously beautiful, the beaches are nice, the weather is glorious. It's just known as a haven for ... umm.. hippie tokers and surfers (and I'm on the liberal side of the scale!) From Wikipedia (some very pretty pictures in this): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Cruz,_California"As a center of liberal and progressive activism, Santa Cruz became one of the first cities to approve marijuana for medicinal uses." and this is brilliant: "In 2006, Measure K was passed by voters, making marijuana enforcement "lowest priority" for law enforcement" A very relaxed city.  |

Weren't they also the first city in California to outlaw referring to your dog as a pet? (the legal term now being "companion") I think Santa Cruz, San Francisco, and Berkeley are in close competition in their political "atmospheres". San Francisco is another wonderful place to hang out and play, we go there frequently, but I would NEVER choose live there. |

Neill,
Oh my...that's quite a video. Only on my second viewing (ok, I know that sounds weird, but I didn't quite believe they REALLY make humans quite that intellectually troubled) did I notice the small blonde child sitting on her right...observe, if you will, the bewilderment and consternation on her face as she tries to understand just how it is that she is more intelligent than a grown adult.
Bless you for amusing me after a difficult week. I'm raising a glass to you, my friend! You remain, as always, a source of delight.
Rick

My Dad lived in Lompoc for a number of years, we loved going up to the Far Western Tavern in Guadalupe. Been about 35 years since I've been there, probably gentrified now - like the Spar in Olympia Washington.
Favorite food, I can't help it I'm a lowbrow: Louisiana hot links on a baguette or an oyster po'boy, grilled fresh Chinook or Albacore are pretty tasty too.

IF there were ever to be a grand assembly of forum members, and if it were to be in warmer months, and if food were to be served in an outside setting,
what kind of foods would Foggers like to eat?
Well, I've always felt that the feast is at the table, not on the table. At a grand assembly of FOGgers, the company would make bread and water a feast. Bon appetit, guys and gals. Regards, John |

I like Guadalupe too. I was there just a few years ago, and it has changed very little. |

Oh man... why did you have to tell me that. My money is all reserved for Festooool...
I was back "home" several years ago (dad passed away). I love that it's so pervasive that the Home Depot in Santa Maria sells that style of BBQ.
This one's for you, Wood-Junkie, I went to a big barbeque in Los Olivos last weekend. Tri-tip sizzling over the open flames of coastal red oak  : |

You are probably correct. Just recently I have had this craving for beef stew in the can. The thing is, I seem to want to munch on the can more than the stew. I have also been wanting to grow a goatee. Been feeling a little horny, too. Thought it was my age. I also thought I had this focus problem because I kept bumping into people with my head. Thanks for providing an explanation for all this. Neill |

For those Foggers who would like to try the Kamado style of outdoor cooking - i.e. the Big Green Egg - a cheap version is avaialable. Home Depot has reduced the price of the Bubba Keg Grill to $299 in their stores. It is still $449 on their website. It is a non-ceramic imitation of the BGE made of steel and insulated like an oven. Has the ability to be taken to places - like FOGfest on a vehicle using the receiver hitch. Mine is seasoning as I write. Ten outdoor cooking devices should hold me for a while.

Peter, I've been looking for a Bubba Keg, where did you find yours? My Home Depot isn't stocking them any more. I live somewhat near you in Alexandria and would be willing to drive a couple of hours to pick one up.

Dane,
I am going to another Home Depot later this morning. I'll check to see if they have any more stock. I'll send you a PM.
