Subject: Ribfest, Saturday, Nov. 4 - the day of Reckoning


RIBFEST IV

Mike Paradise produced an unparalleled performance last year managing to 
dominate the lowest ranking of all the contestants by a considerable margin 
for the second year in a row!  Additionally, the judges showed tremendous 
wisdom picking the winner.  However, the nagging question remains; how good 
does the perfect rib taste?  Thus, as the artist must pursue beauty, the 
fourth annual celebration of the Baby Back Rib must take place.
 
This event involves many of the things you need for a perfect weekend day: 
eating a lot of ribs, imbibing libations, enjoying an autumn day, and 
watching some football.  This year, the contestants will be cooking an absurd 
amount of ribs, allowing the crowd to voice their opinion on the "people's 
choice" along with the official judging of the champion.  Cooking techniques 
are hotly debated, and the insults are legion, but within a month, most 
people are able to speak to each other again.
 
If you think you,re going to make it please call Greg or Martha (713) 
861-2766, we need to know how much to stock up on.  Kids are definitely 
welcome, we are renting an inflatable moon-walk, and we'll have someone there 
to help watch the kids.

Details:

Date: Saturday, Nov 4, 2000

Time:  We start the grills around 12:00, the first judging will occur around 
3:30.  Most people don't have the emotional wherewithal (myself especially) 
to make it much past 7:30.

Where:  1443 N. Oxford Street (in the Heights) 

 From I10 
 If you are coming from the West and driving East, exit at Studemont.  Take a 
left at Studemont heading north, and take it up to 14th street (there,s a 
Fiesta Grocery on the corner).  Turn left on 14th.  The first street you can 
make a right is Oxford.  Turn right on Oxford, one block up, we,re the second 
to the last house on your left.

 From the inner-loop:
 Get on Montrose and head North.  As you cross under I10, Montrose changes to 
Studemont then to Studewood.  Keep heading North until you get to 14th Street 
(there,s a Fiesta Grocery on the corner).  Turn left on 14th.  The first 
street you can make a right is Oxford.  Turn right on Oxford, one block up, 
we,re the second to the last house on your left.
