I made an attempt at vegetarianism and then went to Texas to meet my wifes
family....
My brother in law took us to a GTO club BBQ and that was it.

The most delicious succulent tender juicyiest .........etc etc
etc...............  mesquite smoked steaks I have ever tried...... (drool)

However I did remember to respectfully feel thankfull for the Kritters that
had to be sacrificed on my behalf.
