Hello all!!!    I remember Oenophile, Jim Wood, CA Dreaming, and Exxie from the WOW year.  I lived near you, CA Dreaming, and drove a 1961 Dodge Pioneer.  Could fit four COMFORTABLY in the cavernous back seat.  
I'm not sure how I missed the keg party at the end of the WOW year . . . I was probably there but just don't remember.  
I decided to take some time "off" today and somehow ended up in GSC.  What a fun place!  Have enjoyed reading several pages of this thread, where you planned and pulled off the  2006 Texas BBQ.  Got a kick out of your various definitions/descriptions of authentic Texas BBQ. 
I live near St. Louis, am single-again (AKA divorced), have two AWESOME daughters.  TEach high school English, am working on becoming a reading specialist.  Am playing a fair amount of music, (gigging makes nice part time job and gives me an excuse to play every day) and have managed to write (maybe) a CD's worth of children's music . . .  
Would love to hear from y'all.   
Mary
