BACFest 2012 - Gulf Shores, Alabama

Two items to share about BAC Fest:
1) I have arranged for a private wine tasting with PRP Wines for the ladies during their lunch. This is some of the best wine you will ever taste. It averages about $20 a bottle. Bring your checkbook or credit card as I know you will want to order. Our wine consultant from the private distributor will be doing the tastings.
2) Please change the listing from Doug Muse & Susan Klosowski to Doug Muse and the future Mrs. Muse :) We got engaged this weekend while at the Shrimp and Grits festival on Jekyll Island, GA.

Doug
 
Hey Doug and Susan,
Congratulations!!!!

Since "Tiny" has already been used, I guess the name of the first heir will be "Skipper"?

Again,
Congratulations!

I am glad you warned us about combining shrimp and grits and a place named Jekyll.

As I leave the safety of my New England home for BACFest, is there anything else in the South that I should be careful with? Brad Mitchell says that wine and crisp sheets have a curious effect on him.

Tom Corcoran - Too old for it to matter!

Well, my 5 day trial started and we are 3 days in. It will end on Friday, but we will have to schedule time to come back for closing arguments. After 5 18 hour days thus far, with more to come, I deserve to go and I fully intend to go if I am able. I will have to confirm reservations sometime after Saturday. Right now, I really, really want (need) to go flying.

Request to do the closing in writing....we do that a lot here in LA courts ;)

Doug, congrats to you and Susan. Can't wait to raise a glass and toast to the two of you during BACFest! I'm so glad you found the "ying" to your "yang." It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy! :)
 
Congrats to you both, Doug and Susan. We thought you made a very nice couple at San Antonio, and Susan fit in with the rest of the girls immediately. Just that much more to celebrate in Gulf Shores.

Tom, you slob, Shrimp and Grits is one fine meal. Something we order anytime we find it on the menu. Sandra even makes it for us at home sometimes. You do know that GRITS is an acronym dont you? "Girls Raised In The South".
 
Bo, Tom wouldn't recognize a good mess of grits. He's one of those northern city slickers with Yorkshire Pudding all over his plate! :) But at least he's smart enough to wash it all down with Maker's Mark.
 
As I ignore the uninformed words offered by B. Mitchell...
let me say to you BoBoggs...
Where the hell is the rest of your name?
Bo as in Bob?
Bo as in Bull Shine?
and here in Massachusetts we grow cranberries in a BOG! We call it Ocean Spray!
We don't need two G's to be fancy. We are fancy enough.
And, I can not avoid the moniker of "slob" as you so correctly pointed out... but
The true meaning of the acronym for GRITS is: "I tried that white crap all covered with butter and it made me puke"
Nothin' wrong with Yorkshire Pudding or baked beans.

While I sit here in tears laughing I must add another vote for grits and ......anything! Well my tummy is in Dixie, if not the rest of me.
 
Figuring TC is a die hard Celtics fan (he is after all wearing a green shirt in his mug shot), I'd give anything to see him high-stepping down Bourbon Street in a bright green suit, holding an umbrella and wearing nice shiny beads. That would be enough to stop the music in Preservation Hall!
P.S. I doubt he would've gotten any of those beads showing everybody his t*ts! :)
 
Tom,
Boggs is an old and honorable Scots-Irish name. My ancestors have been proud americans since the early 1700s, serving honorably in the French and Indian War and every war since then.
Bo is a nickname and very few people (sometimes even me) know the real name. It was my father's nickname and I have used it proudly since my early teens.
As far as southern food goes, it is some of the best in the world and it's roots are a cross between using all the pig except the whistle and keeping the best of the other cuisines that contributed to it (witness cajun and Tex-Mex).
 
Sorry that I cannot make it this year. I said a long time ago that I had a trial that could keep me out. Well, the trial ended last week, but the closing arguments are set for October 1, so it is a no go for me. I would however really like to see Corcoran in a bright green suit dancing down Bourbon Street. So, please post pictures (at least the ones not worthy of blackmail).
