At least it ain't propane -- the only gas properly associated with grilling comes after consumption, not in preparation.

What say we get some of these other real men to join, make it a bleeding convention give the Lord a big shout?

A Weber GAS grill, what, they had a rep at Vatican II or something, but I guess in a world where the real lectionary and novus ordo derived one can sit side by side in the same service book what can one expect. Just so they don't call grilling on a REAL Weber the Extraordinary Form or something!

It was free, so I agreed to use it for one season to evaluate it. Hated it from day one, but to be nice to the Missus, I elected to carry that particular burden for a season.<br /><br />We put the sucker on Craig's List, sold it for $150, and bought a brand new Weber charcoal grill for this season. <br /><br />I am a very, very happy man.<br /><br />So, take your choice... Spanish filets or Real Man (TM) Burgers... either way, you'll find it at my casa.<br /><br />Rob+Bishop Robert Lyonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10264379235175793061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-88320619608960712622010-05-09T22:10:13.114-05:002010-05-09T22:10:13.114-05:00Michael,

Why, it was a hot night in 1962 at Castel Gandolfo and John XXIII was going to grill up some burgers for the boys, and whips out a gas grill. Bugnini immediately produced a novus ordo burgerorum, Kueng burst forth in joy at a rebirth of the Holy Spirit, de Lubac wrote Burgers and the Common Destiny of Man in one sitting, but meanwhile Lefebvre soiled his cassock, Ottaviani passed out, and Felice said it would take at least a century to get a good burger after fifteen minutes of madness by the Pope, then hurled so hard it fell on Polyphemus' statue, making it look more like that of the other -phemus cyclops, his brother Blas, fittingly enough.<br /><br />Now I got all this straight from Godfrey, so there you have it.Past Elderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541968132598367551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-71822750449987108372010-05-09T20:19:59.429-05:002010-05-09T20:19:59.429-05:00"bull twinkie"???????
