OTBS Nomination Thread

[beer-b-q]

I would like to nominate Fire It Up if I can...

I think he is deserving of membership the OTBS, he has posted tons of qview and I believe has now been a member for nine months...

I'd have gotten on here sooner but My puter is still busted.

Staples "fixed it " but when I got it home it still didn't work, $338.00 later. Now their techie is down with the H1n1 flu. The swine! So I can't get it back till he is ok'd to come back to work. They don't know if he fixed it or not so I am stuck with sneaking a few minutes on my wifes puter to type this. Anyway its a fine Nomination that I heartily endorse.

Fire it up also deserves the Nod. Great posts from both these guys.

Thanks everyone.I talked with FIU(JIM) and Cajunsmoke(STEVE) earlier and we were concerned FIU has another 6 days for 9 months.Not sure if the rules get stretched,but Fire it up would be a heck of a reason!!

 

[cajunsmoke13]

I agree Alex. Fire it Up puts on some great q, recipes, everything...been wanting to nominate him...

Congratulations to all the newly appointed members for the OTBS. Everyone has gone out of there way to help me, as well as, every other newbie that walks in these doors. I honestly thought I knew what I was doing until I got to this site....now I use less wood, less ingredients in my rubs, and a new ET-73 to monitor my meat...instead of taking the lid off, sticking it, waiting, waiting, waiting....then stumbling around for the next half hour getting the temp back up. Thank you all, and I would nominate a few more, but they are a few days/months short of the 9 months make or break rule.

Thank you all

Congratulations to ALX on a well deserved nomination.

Now as far as FireItUp goes...I would be honored to give him a 2nd. I remember I nominated PignIt a few days early and there wasn't a problem since it takes a bit to go from the actual request to the Squires List to the actual hazing ceremony of the OTBS Membership Committee.

If I may be so bold as to request that we allow FireItUp's nomination a few days early. If anyone around here deserves it, he does. Very active, friendly, full of great advice, knows his Q, has grown by leaps and bounds since joining, very helpful to those that need it, got the exchange back up and running, hosted not one but two fatty throwdowns, and a highly respected member in good standing of the SMF.

My $0.02 for what it's worth.

Wow thanks for the nomination guys! Oh wait.........

 

[meat hunter]

I agree. He has helped me out a few times, is very active here and always willing to share what he knows with others.

Go back a page and look at post #248 and I think you'll find Fire it Up has been seconded

 

[ronp]

I think you are worthy of a nonimation too. Sometimes people are overlooked, sorry, you have added a lot to this forum and have some great posts.

Can I get a second?

 

[pineywoods]

I would like to second Fired Up's nomination

 

[alx]

Awesome.Well deserved CHEF BRAD!!!!!!

Fire It Up and Fired UP usernames are so similiar.

 

[ronp]

Yes that is the problem.

 

[pineywoods]

But I believe both are deserving

 

[alx]

Definetly IMHO.Congrats to JIM and BRAD!!!!

 

[fire it up]

Like Bub and Bud

I have to say I am humbled by the nomination and all the good words and also agree that Fired Up is a well deserved nomination for the OTBS.
Not sure if there is a good way to distinguish the two names, we both obviously love to smoke meats, not sure about Fired Up but personally I enjoy firing it up.
Noticed Fired has been a member since 12/12/2008 so he is definitely past the 9 month criteria and though I can't second I whole heartedly agree on his nomination.

 

[erain]

congrats to the new noms!!! Fire it Up, Fired Up, and ALX. all have noteworthy acccomplishments!!! great choices folks

 

[Dutch]

ALX-not to worry, by time I get around to adding the new noms to the Squires list those six days will have passed.

 

[beer-b-q]

Loosely translated: I just laze around since my foot surgery...

Squirrels List Huh...

 

[Dutch]

It's not "I just laze around", there is a medical term for it called "Recuperating"!

ALX, FireItUp and Fired up added to the S Q U I R E' S list. (How did this squirrel thing get started anyway???? Um-never mind

)
