i have a rownd 'banjo' canoe paddle made by Sawyer Paddles.
i have lived in Columbia, SC and
i lived many years in NC.

There is no way that the bar-b-cue sauce in Columbia can even begin to
compare with any fine bar-b-cue sause from NC.

still, some of the best bar-b-cue on earth comes from the 'Georgia Pig'
outside of Savanah... where it is cooked over hickery by locals, cut and
served to order.


i use an ax, not my paddle, to crack a roasted pig's skull to get to the
brains.

bye bye bliven
