Gas stoves and grills are preferred, no doubt. With stoves, you want to be able to instantly increase or decrease heat, and with grills you get more flavor from a flame. Thus, gas. But these are not qualities that are important in an oven.
In an oven that is used for baking, you want the temperature to be stable and precise. You can generally achieve tighter temperature control in an oven if it is electric ... providing that said electric oven doesn't suck balls, that is.

Mmm, they were your Vermont Crunchy Hairy Armpit variety...with leg warmers on a 3 mile hike.
I usually can't be bothered to put on clothes for the hike, I wore my PJ's today!

if your dog is growling, you should be correcting him. holding is good, but having people's dogs growl at you sucks. ugh, it puts me in a funk for hours.

I did scold him, but this was a first for him...hoping its attributable to his funk.

My entire left latissimus dorsi muscle is in total spasm right now.
I sit here being thrown around by a stoopid spasm. It doesn't hurt, just annoying as hell!
Flexoral here I come!

I checked again, like I do every morning before I walk out the door.
FUK!!!!!!!!
What the fuk is rong with those fuked up losers? Why the fuk can't they get there fuking shit together. It'z been well over a fuking month. Not sure how much more of this fuking shit I can handle. Well I guess, it'z going to be another day on teh slightly overhanging slabs. Still, I just kinda had this feeling...
Sure, I got to go back to several areas I hadn't been to in quite some time and a few that I haven't been to before. My torn bicep got some rest and I actually saw a few of my old friends. Still, I just couldn't shake the feeling.
Even though it'z an hour out of my way, even though I had just checked the FS home page before I walked out the door and it was going to make me late to the crag I had agreed to go to... I just had to check.
The fuking signs were still up... What the fuk is rong with those guys. The fire never got closer than 20 miles and, there was no acess to the fire location from this side of the forest. I was just about to call my partner to say I was going to be late. Figured I would just roll one up... and then head down the hill.
Shit!!!1 a fuking cop just pulled into the turnout. cept he didn't pullup next to me and he had a FS truck right behind him. They pulled past me and the ranger jumped out of the truck and took down the closed sign. huh??? I watched while he continued up the hill, stopping in each turnout removing the signs. I made a call, and followed them up the hill, untill they pulled into the turnout at teh WNSG and took down the signs there. And just like that the forest was open.
Still no mention of the forest opening on the FS website as of a couple of minutes ago, but the forest is open and the WNSG is back in effect.

The road to teh Old New will be closed for months, likely thru next year.
What other crag? There is no other crag when teh WNSG is in effect.... at least not any that are local. I thought you knew?

Why the fuk can't they get there fuking shit together. It'z been well over a fuking month. Not sure how much more of this fuking shit I can handle. Well I guess, it'z going to be another day on teh slightly overhanging slabs. Still, I just kinda had this feeling... Sure, I got to go back to several areas I hadn't been to in quite some time and a few that I haven't been to before. My torn bicep got some rest and I actually saw a few of my old friends. Still, I just couldn't shake the feeling. Even though it'z an hour out of my way, even though I had just checked the FS home page before I walked out the door and it was going to make me late to the crag I had agreed to go to... I just had to check. The fuking signs were still up... What the fuk is rong with those guys. The fire never got closer than 20 miles and, there was no acess to the fire location from this side of the forest. I was just about to call my partner to say I was going to be late. Figured I would just roll one up... and then head down the hill. Shit!!!1 a fuking cop just pulled into the turnout. cept he didn't pullup next to me and he had a FS truck right behind him. They pulled past me and the ranger jumped out of the truck and took down the closed sign. huh??? I watched while he continued up the hill, stopping in each turnout removing the signs. I made a call, and followed them up the hill, untill they pulled into the turnout at teh WNSG and took down the signs there. And just like that the forest was open. Still no mention of the forest opening on the FS website as of a couple of minutes ago, but the forest is open and the WNSG is back in effect. I assume the rode is still closed up to teh old gnu? (what's left of it)
That road is still closed. Drove up there this afternoon. It's amazing how close the fire got to the homes up there. People's lawns burned, but the firefighters' saved the homes.
