a butterfly flaps its wings in copiapo

and earl ends up licking beer off the patio floor in the gundo.  i think it is safe to say i have had my fill of chili for a while…  no more chili con fussion, troversy, sternation, spiracy or petition (yep that's pushing it).  please hold the cur and quer as well. 

i'm not exactly sure what we are going to call it.  bfd has a good ring.  no matter, it was all so damn good.  i sure could have used some tums.

here is how the points boiled over:

s.k. 1st place

r.b. 2nd place

f.g. 3rd place

discretionary points:
p.n. coordinators choice for best chili

a.l. coordinator point

j.b. pulls off an 'ice pack' point. second month in a row!

b.t and j.w. we gave you a half-show point for bringing chili. you’ll get the other half when you leave your twelve pack at my side gate (don’t worry about a.l.  he has got plenty of leftovers)

bon appetit al
