Attention everyone!! Secure your kettle and keep your lawn mowed. If you yard looks a little overgrown and neglected your kettle might just grow legs and walk away on you someday!!
Mark, is that sarcasm or do you think that saving these old grills that are abviously left out to die a slow death of neglect is the wrong thing to do?
Does anyone think that were going too far? Just curious..
Sorry, I've been away from the computer and net for almost a week.
My post was a little of both, I suppose. It was sarcasm in the sense that I'm assuming that every effort to make sure the claimed grills were truly abandoned was made. The cloak and dagger nature of these adventures is funny to follow.
I think it might be going too far in the sense that private property is private property. And, who's to say what abandoned is? Think of it like this goofy over the top scenario
:
You have a crazy old uncle with a yellow ranger, a sequoia, and a prototype for the first Weber kettle in his yard. He's nuts, everyone knows it. You ask for the Weber stuff and he says, "You can have it when I'm dead, but if you come get it before then I'll shoot 'ya!" So you wait, he croaks, but when you go to pick up the stuff someone has made off with it because his yard was overgrown and he was too nuts to ever answer his door.
So, was that stuff abandoned, or did it belong to a crazy old fart who was going to give it to his nephew with a Weber problem when he finally kicked off? I always like to err on the side of, "If I didn't pay for it or I wasn't given direct permission then it ain't mine to take."
Okay, buzzkill mode switched off.
