I'm in.
Houston people - lunch?

I can't.

Actually I need to bail as well.

Good thread.

Frito pie #1 down the gullet. Colby jack cheese and chili made with some brisket I smoked. Was delicious! #2 will for dinner will involve Hormel chili and some "showboating" jalapeños.

It is proving impossible to find Colt 45 around here.

You may have to settle for Olde English 800.

Colby Jack sandwich with arugula and avocado. Yum.

I can't find that, either. You would think that anything that comes in a large bottle would be popular here. I can find the tiny bottles of Corona just fine. Those make no sense to me on any number of levels.

Consider it punishment for this.

It wasn't exactly effective, in any sense. I wasn't able to get very far into it before Davis dispatched us, maybe the magic is in the bottom?

I would recommend buying two, though. You'll need the first one to make the second one taste good.

The Statesman published El Real's chili recipe today, straight from Walsh's new cookbook. I hope this will come in handy in the future.

After my noon meeting, I went for a second lunch at Avalon Diner. It's the best I can do.

Finished off my Homesick Texan chili with frito pie today. If we win, I will make another batch for the LCS.

Can't get it on a menu in Charlotte, but I took a bag of Doritos to a good place with shitty Cincy chili and made my three friends (a Mets fan and two who don't care about baseball) and our waiter all eat it with me. I hope that works. I am typing this from the bathroom.

Look for it in this size.

I ate a stick of Colby Jack cheese last Friday and on Monday.

I have abstained today.

I will buy you a beer if you abstain from telling us what you're abstaining from.

I think it's safe to say there were a lot of stains.

I went back to the Armadillo Palace today for a venison Frito pie.

I noticed the other day that Dairy Queen has a crunchy Frito chili cheese Hungr-buster. There must be bonus points for that.

Just brought home 20 lbs of fire wood for my back yard "Fiers" tonight. Just in case.

Just looking at a picture of that thing has laxative effects.

You guys are seriously going to have to pursue a wheatgrass cleanse.

Couldn't find an Colt 45 Malt Liquor but i did find all the letter and numbers on a bottle of Real Ale Brewing Company's Lost Gold. Just laid a bed of Fritos brand corn chips in a bowl, covered 'em with Wolf Brand Chili, sharp cheddar, chopped onions, and a daub of sour cream.

Of what I was able to find Night Train was the closest in spirit to Colt 45. And no, I didn't buy any. I'm just not that invested in the Astros anymore.
