Ron "I Metzger Vote Raht Here"

This guy is " surprised to see so much greenery!" Having grown up there, I am not. But those are the same words a HP exec from Germany once spoke while I ferried him around the Baltimore 'burbs.

iri said...: I was born and raised there. Long gone by 1978 for Texas. I lived N of the river so it was unlocked doors and playing with the neighbor kids way after dark all though my childhood. It was a wonderful time and town in which to grow up. But once away and years passing I swore once my mother passed I'd never go back. I haven't.

I will say that AB's BBQ was OK but it was so damn spicy one of those sandwiches gave me indigestion all day long and into the night. That big bare Black ham fist that served the beef up on butcher paper was a bit disconcerting too. I only traded there when somebody else was buying. Texas BBQ on the other hand rocks my world.; 4/21/13, 10:11 PM

Bonus points, iri, if you can correctly pronounce Mueller and Kreuz.

iri said...: Kreuz = Cross

Mueller = muller

I'm guessing. Hell, I didn't know Humble, TX really doesn't have an H in it until I'd been here 20 years!

Enjoy your chow!!!; 4/22/13, 3:54 PM
