I'm going offshore fishing and helping the GF move out. What's everyone up to?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Rostered day off in Australia... 
Not much. Having some friends over for patio time a couple nights while refining my grilling skills. Had my Traeger over a year now and it’s time to completely master the brisket process. If that fails, have some racks of baby backs marinated in teriyaki for the ancient Weber.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Thanks, if I can’t get around the excess 150* stall time with the usual lower temps and a sooner / lower temp wrap, the high temp option may be up next …

My buddy had that same issue, that stall time like so many others. I've never cooked a brisket before, but got his feedback and told him - Hey, I'll do an experiment. Granted I've only done beef ribs before, which takes little effort. I like to find loopholes/shortcuts in life so I had to experiment with a 12 hour smoke.
