So, I'm moving this weekend. Which means that jjns will probably win the shirt. I do, however, feel it important that I mention a future review that will be available for your pleasure.
My new abode is surrounded by bars, one of which will become my temporary monday home.
I will go to this bar, eat all the bacon I can and tell you about it in the most interesting way I can. Probably a mix of song and or dance.

Oh, and if for some reason this never happens.... I still win right?

Well, this month's contest for the coveted Meat-Shirt has almost come to an end. It has been a heated battle thus far between just two of our loyal members. Early on dirtykalb and jjns23 were running pretty much neck and neck with kalb holding a slight lead. But, in a flourish of article and recipe postings, jjns23 has taken a commanding and, dare I say, insurmountable lead. There are just a few days left. Who will be this month's champion? Keep checking back to see.

Here are the totals so far (sorry kalb comments DON'T count):

jjns23 - 19 articles posted

dirtykalb - 14 articles and "babes" posted

OK, this has absolutely nothing to do with meat. Other than the fact that there is a random steak floating throughout the entire video.
