Ancient man, 10 B.F.* *Before frontgate Catalog Charlene: My husband bought a grill. It cost more than my car, but that's not important. The important thing is that my husband's grill is bigger than our neighbor's grill. Our neighbor's grill can only cook 24 hamburgers at a time. My husband's grill can simultaneously cook 72 burgers, two 30-pound turkeys or nine whole chickens. And then there's the matter of quality. "You deserve the best", He said. 25,000 BTU burners...Infrared rotisserie system...porcelain enameled, cast-iron grill grates... restaurant-quality, 18 gauge, type 304 stainless steel.. My husband used to spend money on sound systems and electronics gizmos...but no more. He sacrificed it all so he could provide something I never dreamed our little family would have... ...A $9100 hot dog!! Simon: Would you like a few pounds of grilled veggies with that?

And how often do you need to feed that many people? If you can afford the food after paying for the grill.

Of course. Now he can happily watch it rust and corrode into an unrecyclable eyesore and then hire someone to take it away. Enjoy the hot dog. It’s about all you’re going to get out of that.

He sounds like my ex. He just had to have this big expensive grill. Even got the custom fitted cover for it and a matched set of tools. The only person to ever use the grill was my son.

I guess it is a status symbol to have a grill that specifically violates the Kyoto Protocol. :) :(

After paying for a grill like that about all you can afford is hotdogs and veggies.
Ah, another beautiful Sunday – perfect for grilling. Enjoy your day!

I guess “moderation” is not in this couple’s vocabulary …
HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, “Cathy” Clan.
