I'm in.I'll bring lots 'o Brats!Will try to get my girl to make a batch of her incredibly good chili.Maybe she'll even want to come with me!

Forget the Brats...I can marinate them but no way to grill'em.Or is there?

I'm in and Mrs. Ratt will be there too. If I'm nice maybe she'll make some congo bars!

What time?Time and I have trouble coordinating.

I'm in, not sure what to cook this year???
Maybe ribs???
Maybe chicken parm...
Later,
Rick
OH Jimbo, you read this yet!!!!

As long as I'm not traveling I'm in for sure.

Wife and I are looking forward to attending our second TFCTGFN.

Will be bringing blueberry pies once again
Their delicious warm but wife says that they should be eatin at room temperature.

:happy: :happy:

no need to they will allready be there...........................

Oh Dave, I'm hoping you're not talking about the Bombas.
LOL.
Rick

Congo Bars?:confused:

John,

I think you sghould convene a super secret committee of the boards regulars and create a few annual awards. Some Ideas...

1...Rookie of the Year Award...for the loudest member that came in like gangbusters, pissed everyone off and now is just another one of the bunch.

2...I need a Life...this is the mike hog or net hog asward given to someone who just has to post on every little damn thing...related or not

3...Closest to getting Banned Award....for the member that will centralize this winter's insanity

let your imagination run....

Sounds like fun!

I think I will attend and get to meet everyone!

I hope I can make it!

I,m iin,lil Bomba meet ya at the Gorilla party at the gym at 1 am ok:smash:

bring the Peanut Butter!!

i'm down. will bring something good :)

I'll be there. I don't know what to bring. Will decide later I guess.
_Z_

And definately bringin a foldin lawn chair for the after party. If I sit on an exercise machine again like last year, I might break this years New Year's resolution of not exercising.

Both I and the little woman will be in attendance for the first time.

I do not think I have seen it on the list yet. I will bring plastic forks, knives, and spoons. I will also grab a stack of plates and napkins. Guess it is a run over to BJ's Wholesale on the way down.

This next statement probably won't be too popular. But $10 a couple is one inexpensive night out. If money is short keeping this site open JohnR, I wouldn't have a problem with a bump on the ticket prices. If not, I will purchase something for the raffle table. This is a great site, and a long winter - I want the lights left on.

-IWK

Ya' gotta make this post sticky JohnR

That's OK - Buy more raffle tickets :hee:

I don't want it to be expensive, I just want it to be a good time. The TCTFN generates half of the funds to keep the site going well. But I don't want it to be expensive (not that I'd mind making more :hihi: ). But we keep the ticket for significant others so we can prove (or disprove) that we are not (or just are) a bunch of lunatics :rolleyes:

i volunteer to do the raffle again.. :hihi:

Count me in again! I will something to be determined at a later date - The Mrs is very under the weather right now. I will tell her we have a date on the 26 after she gets better;)

I will be there, numbers to follow.....

Notaro Congo Bars is the dance we do when we order drinks!:laughs: Naw they are my wifes chocalite chip brownies, they go pretty fast!

John

-IWK

I'll be there.............

I'm there and I have no ADULT SUPERVISION that night...........

Yes, Rick, I saw this already, look about 13 posts ahead of you. Sounds like you're throwing down the gauntlet for some sort of Iron Chef Striped-Bass competition. Well, Iron Chef RickBombaSakai, Iron Chef JimboKenichi will will consider your most worthy offer.

Damn...there is some sweet stuff on those tables and I know this year will be killer.

I'll have to be there in sprit this year....:(
(Family trip planned that week)

Maybe I can donate something…. Perhaps a guided ( me as your guide) surf trip (night) during the derby (for no more then 2 people) I normally fish solo but I could make an exception for sb.com. :D...I don't know if that would be much of a prize or even of interest...but I will guarantee fish or I buy dinner the next night. You can't loose! If there is any interest in something like this let me know. Again I would be happy to do it

OIC, cool, man. I thought congo bar is just another name for hash brownie:p

Great offer Sandman, :kewl: I'd surely take it...

I'll be there with a Seared Foie Gras and Savory Rosemary Waffle with Prune-Armagnac Ice Cream, Carmelized Pineapple, And Veal Reduction. Or something similar :laughs:

-spence

Foie gras+prunes+armanac is a killer combo:drool:

Great idea. Hope I win this one:btu:

That is nice but don't need to win anything...you have an open invite, just show up anytime...

Awesome, Thanks a bunch, I'll do that.:happy:

I'll give everyone at TCTFN your number for the Derby :laughs:

Wish you could make it but a family trip is a good trip!

MikeCC - thanks awesome donation :btu:

My better half and I will be there. She'll make swedish meatballs. I'll donate 6 custom plugs.

S/M awesome donation //Just give me the dates // I,ll be there:rolleyes:
