"OTBS"

[gypsyseagod]

i will vote for catfish. there's a couple others that are "newbies" but really know their stuff or work in the industry, but as i got a screaming kid w/ colich i can't get to the member list right now to remember who they are.now i DO think debi deserves a special acclaim as mother hen of the smf & some kind of special title in her sig.. in the words of capt. jack sparrow... "what say ye"? - i say aye..

Good to go on all!

Take care, have fun, and do good!

we overlooked shellbellc- i think i should nominate her- she is always helpful & had made many posts- all of which are good or jogs our smoke filled brains to come up w/ an intelligent answer.

 

[gypsyseagod]

i third catfish. not sure which arm of our fine armed forces you are but as they said 40 years ago & still rings true... "xin loi" get some- ty for your service my brother.god speed & safe return- we will keep a smoking lamp lit for you.

 

[monty]

Shellbellc, Michelle, has been a Knight for some time! But I am sure she appreciates your thinking of her!

Cheers!

 

[monty]

Perhaps you were thinking of smokincowboy! I respectfully submit him for induction into the Order of the Thin Blue Smoke!

He is always ready to welcome new members, join in the "funny" times and offer advice!

What say Ye?

Cheers!

 

[gypsyseagod]

[crewdawg52]

Sorry I wa out all yesterday afternoon. I would have seconded, thirded, forthed, etc for all those nominated. Big Congratulations to all!

 

[hawgheaven]

Wow, lots of nominees, how'd I miss this?! Musta been busy smokin' something...

Anyway, y'all have my vote!!

 

[gypsyseagod]

bumping this up and i think mossymo needs a nomination for fine posts,help & advice, & general knowledge. hell,just look @ his grinder..... thats awesome.

 

[gypsyseagod]

bumping it again.

 

[monty]

MossyMo Gets my second!
And while reviewing a bunch of stuff today I came to the conclusion, while a bit young with us, Richoso1 deserves nomination as well!

How 'bout it, folks?

Cheers!

(Dutch is gonna have a fit with me! Gigggle! Giggle!)

 

[gypsyseagod]

yes he do.i 2nd that. while we're on the subject... for willingness to participate,fitting in,and because he has to take a cruise courtesy of the u.s.n.- brennan deserves a nod. plus he's posted a few good smokes & that flowerpot rocks.

 

[monty]

Brennan gets my second and more than that, my most sincere appreciation and thanks for all he does for us!

Cheers!

I would like to welcome all the new members of the OTBS, and support the nominations that are pending. May your smoke always be thin and blue.

 

[vulcan75001]

Brennan defiantly gets a

here...
and now Sir Monty...as long as you are mentioning the "Young Ones"...how about smokinmeat...if he has the B*lls to show up at the the gathering...a virtual unknown...and joins right in...and to score a free smoker as well....sure sounds like he has the desire to to fit right in with the crowd ...he also has some good teachers close to keep him on the right track...

 

[gypsyseagod]

i hate to overload the nominations but low&slow had the b*lls (or addiction) to smoke in that texas flood( die hards get points too) and posted some fine Qviews.... i'm still a newer otbs member so i'll offer him up to the group for someone to make the nom.

 

[monty]

Gosh, darn it! Y'all make too much sense!
Makin' sense don't bother me.
But y'all makin' sense and being right...now that's a bother!

All right here goes!

Since I started this I am going to end it!
To this point all recent nominees have my unequivocal and irrevocable second and best wishes!

I am temporarily closing nominations into the Order of the Thin Blue Smoke until reopened by the Grand Knight Himself, Dutch!
He has to have a bit of breathing room here!

When Dutch catches up he will once again reopen membership.

Remember that entry into the OTBS depends upon:

Demonstrated ability
A sense of the Thin Blue Smoke
Sharing of recipes
Willingness to help others
An effort to greet new members to the SMF

Thank you everyone for your enthusiastic participation!

Till the big man inducts!

Cheers!

I would like to publicly thank gypsyseagod for nominating me and his compliments to me,…. and my grinder !!! Here is a link as to the grinder gypsy was talking about, it should be in the middle of the page – http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=251&page=3

Also wanted to thank srmonty for seconding gypsyâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s nomination.

I am fairly new to the site and honestly feel overwhelmed that I would even have a nomination to the OTBS at this point. Even if I am not inducted in at this point, I am truly honored to have been even thought of, let alone nominated.

Along with Jeffâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s organizational skills, the members are key in what makes SMF what it is.
