Tc3, Who is going?

“Mike has already called me, and asked me when the first Tc3 planning meeting is!

LOL.

There ain't gonna be no Tc3.”

“There will be a Tc3.”

“I didn't spend a total of 3 hours being interrogated by the Rangers for nothing.

There WILL be a Tc3!”

“LOL.. you did, you did!!.. I was wondering if you were ever going to post THAT story!”

“"There WILL be a Tc3!"

Ladies and Gentlemen, do I hear a volunteer for President?.. LMAO.”

“Come on TD, it's kind of like childbirth for a woman. Once you forget the pain of childbirth you don't mind doing it again. The pain/time spent is still too fresh. I didn't see you the whole weekend when you didn't have a big, goofy grin on your face. I know that is wasn't just gas the whole time.”

“Tc3, held in 2007.”

“Good, while TD has gone to the bathroom let's vote him into office.”

“Besides.. there ain't gonna be no Tc3."

LMAO@chili”

“Aye”

“I do want to hear the story about Chili being grilled by the Rangers. That sounds interesting.

Lawyer gets third degree from guys with Smoky the Bear hats”

“TD - delegate more man! have someone in charge of site, fundraising, website, reservations, etc. We have enough responsible folks here to handle it.

If not - TC3 in my back yard, 2003.”

“Aye.

The Ayes have it.

Towndawg, you are it for next year. Sorry, we had a vote and you won.”

“"We have enough responsible people here..."

Buddha, you were there right? Think about all of the folks who raided the Buddha Bar.

Seriously, I would think there are enough folks to help shoulder the load. TD'll come back.”

“There ain't gonna be no Tc3.”

“The bar was there TO BE RAIDED! lol”

“TD, well either your english is worth then mine, or you just said "yes, there will be a TC3"...”

“wow.. someone FINALLY got it.

Hey Gem.. if I had the contest in summer next year.. would you wear a cute swimsuit?”

“There will be a Tc3 gemini.

I will post the Ranger story when I have more time to type it up. It was a two hour ordeal. It will take some time to get in into print.”

“That is it was a two hour ordeal the first time.....the little guy came back and shot the #&%!$ for another hour during the cookoff.”

“sorry no swimsuite for me. :) I have a sister........”

“Does she like horns?”

“hmmm....I am not sure. She doesn't speak a lot of english. How would that work?

Kidding. she is going to get married next year, and hates hiking, backpacking and all this good stuff we love so much.”

“Bring her to Tc3 and she will be hooked!”

“Well ,the hard part is done. Yu now know what worked and what didn't. Doesn't seem to me like a time to stop. Seems people are willing to pick up the slack. If I can go next year (depending on when I go to show next year), I would be more than willing to help and organize. It's easy, really...”

“By the way laqtis.. heard so many nice comments about you from a friend of yours.. :)..

I might have to hike up your way one day.”

“I would like to go to it next year if it is close to Tennessee.”

“And, did the other signs and banner work for ya??

They CAN and WILL work for NEXT year !! (they will work BEST in October !!)”

“Holly: The national event will ALWAYS be held in Tennessee, as long as I have anything to say about it. :)

Trekker John: The Tc2 sign was incredible! We awarded it to Matt Johnson the webmaster for attending the event. It was so nice having GOD there.”

“Will it be posted at REI again?
Or, Do I need to check here for information?”

“I wanna go! I wanna go!”

“I'll be there with bells on next year! I can't wait!

Hey I like having it in December. Yes, it was cold, but camping in the snow was a new exp for me that was gorgous! I want to go back and actually hike the area. OPIE and I kind of kicked back and didn't get to check out alot of the scenery. We were having too much fun sitting around the campfire talking to everyone!”

“Hey Gemini I'm glad someone finally said something! I too noticed what he was saying after reading it over and over.”

“its sad, im from the south.. i can understand bad grammer”

“I'l be at TC3 For Sure!! I'll be more involved in the planning next year and WILL be there by Thursday this time.
Put me down as a committee member.

TDawg. There WILL be a TC3!!!!”

“You'll be there with bells on, eh?

Maybe there should be a bear bells pageant next year, lol!

Perhaps a fashion show of sorts, with the latest gear?


YEAH, COOL!”

“TD - Look forward to meeting you as well. Sometime soon I hope.”

“I'll volunteer to help too if needed!”

“I will be down also!

It would give time to go crazy down south a little.

“I am licensed to practise law in Tennessee, but I suspect that TownDawg owns some sort of common law rights to the name "Titanium Chef" as it pertains to a cooking contest. Anyone can set up a backpacking cooking contest, but only TownDawg can let a contest use the name "Titanium Chef". If he was smart, he should register the name "Titanium Chef" to preserve his rights and control. This would keep some big company making a big profit from ripping off his GREAT IDEA.

TownDawg should either personally register the name and run the competition or not as he sees fit, or he should form an association and let a group run the event as the group sees fit. Chili36, would you be able to help him? There are pros and cons to keeping the event a manageable size of less than 100, as compared to marketing the event nationwide and having 200 to 500 people show up.

Either way, TownDawg's "Titanium Chef" is the best original idea for backpacking since nylon and ziplock bags. TownDawg, you have to allow TC3 to continue. After all, how could you face your friends if you let a lawyer (me, prosecutor) keep the coveted traveling trophy forever that you should have won and probably will win next year if you rememeber to bring your red pepper, (and lighter, and paper towels, and knife).”

“Correction on the typo, it should read NOT licensed in Tennessee.”

“I nominate the one and only TOWNDAWG as Chairman Emeritus-

Titanium Chef can only exist if the Towndawg is in charge...
anything else would be a poor substitute.

He is of the founding family-THE JFK.THE MLK.THE EMINEM. THE SNOOP DAWG- of the Titanium Chef Franchise-
Accept no substitute.




ps. Congrats dude.”

“TC2 wasn't the same without Josh Man, Raddy, Rabbitman, Katiebug, Leatherneck, WWWwanderer & SKULLY & GOOSE & clan. You must come next year, at all costs. Oh, and inch worm too. How”

“Well said BB.”

“Lizs, you can come with Khatru and I, you get to ride shotgun, Khatru is in the back seat...I might just have to enter a dish or 2...”

“Lizs, you can come with Khatru and I, you get to ride shotgun, Khatru is in the back seat...I might just have to enter a dish or 2...”

“Hey JoshMan -- so when are we going to sit down one weekend in the woods together and repair an old friendship?”

“prosecutor, sometime after the first of the year, TD and I will sit down to figure out the best way to protect the identity of Titanium Chef...best theory at this point is to set up a 501 (c)(3) corporation and trademark the name.”

“Sooner than that, JB. We are meeting for lunch this Saturday.

You pick the restaurant, I'm buying.”

“HOOTERS!!!”
