PHAT!

I went on a search for pictures depicting Lubbock, the town we just moved to yesterday, and this is what was number one on the search results. I'm not quite sure what it means, but I have a pretty good idea. Since I've been here, I sure have seen a lot of "big" people, them Texans sure aren't joking when they say, "everything in Texas is big!" hence greasy spoon!

................................

We went to Rudy's BBQ last night for dinner. Not saying that the food was greasy, in fact it wasn't at all, it was very delicious! and Jeff nor I ate at all with silverware. Also the ambiance of the place was very picnic table setup- no plates, no silverware, everyone gathers around a table and eats. yummy, my kind of eating.

I'd say it was the best brisket I ever had, but it was the only brisket I ever had, however, the ribs- EXCELLENT!!!!

The menu you order by pounds... crazy

The kitchen had these huge ovens in the back, I'm sure they're big enough a large person could fit inside them, where do they get their meat from???

And this is the tray in which you get your food!

Lubbock, TX

We are staying at the TownePlace by Marriott for the next 2-3 weeks. It wouldn't be fair to compare it to the Residence Inn, where we were staying before, because we were definitely pampered. It is as though our room was made for a midget. all the counters are not even three feet high, the bathtub is normal until you get inside- it is raised. and the bed is a big twin. I can't complain too much because apparently we are living in luxury compared to where the Technicians are living, it is so ghetto they are thinking of installing an alarm system in their apt. for the time being! eek.

This does not really show the minitureness of what we are dealing with, however you know how tall Jeff and I are, we are seriously going to have some back injuries by the end of the summer. Everything in TX is not Large! Our kitchen is mini.. a mini sink, dishwasher, fridge, stove, countertop, etc! Jeff looks like a giant standing in the kitchen.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT........

I don't know who eric "badlands" booker is, but he should not be eating that burger... he is already fat! I swear, every restaurant in America wants to kill Americans and anyone else who eats... the portions are ridiculous... and you wonder why 1/2 of the population is obese!

Also, why is he wearing a helmet? is he also retarded? I guess that's not a politically correct statement, but hey this is my blog!
