I have one SIL and he's great! A father of two as of yesterday. He is a great dad, and a very patient man, to deal with his wife. She's very hard on him, for no reason. Glad you have good ones too.

I bought him a new grill as a house warming gift. Sometimes he feels obligated to grill for us. :naughty:

The grill in this commercial is what I have and use constantly. I highly recommend the brand. They have a wide variety of models to choose from.

Joking aside, if you can say that, you are blessed and a lucky man. I was clear winner by a mile in the SIL category, buy my competition wasn't very steep. We've had a couple of doozies ourselves. Good ones aren't really all that common.

We hit the lottery with these kids....

...with some of the early contenders?
I'd have had to take 'em out back & shoot them.

Napoleon Prestige and Pro models are great. I have a natural gas model and love it. The Rogue line is meh.

It's obvious, "Y'all aint from around here".....

Us southern boys grew up correct and proper.
We know, from experience, at an early age how to deal with such things.

If you really want to have some fun, give him these for Christmas.
He will learn (hopefully) real quick how to get a professional fireball in the grill.

For those not accustomed to such pyrotechnical details, let me enumerate....

1. place a layer of tin foil in the bottom of the grill.

2. Carefully stack the charcoal briquettes on the tin foil taking care to make as neat a pyramidal structure as possible, discarding all broken and uneven briquettes. If you think you have enough charcoal, add that much again.

2. Drowned the briquettes in lighter fluid. This is critical and cannot be understated. At least half a container of lighter fluid is the minimum you should even consider.

3. Wait exactly 2 minutes, and toss in a lit match. I cannot stress how important the match being lit is. All will fail if this is not done properly.

4. If all the previous steps were accomplished properly, you have learned an important life lesson.

STAND BACK WHEN YOU THROW IN THE LIT MATCH....!

You are welcome.

I was wearing a terry cloth robe one morning around the house and went to the stove to cook an egg..
We have gas burners and I made the mistake of leaning over the stove and the robe went up like a fireball.
Scared the hell out of me but I set a record pulling off that robe..It was all very superficial but still scared me..

Sounds like the Valentina mistress of Tony Soprano who got badly burned when the stove caught her bathrobe/dressing gown on fire.

i had that happen to a tank top. It was terry cloth and I wore it all the time. We were in a booth in a pizza shop, I went to light a match for my cigarette and a spark from the match flew onto my shirt. This wave of flame shot up the front of the shirt and poof, it was gone (flame, not the shirt). The shirt was not burnt at all. If I had been alone, nobody would have believe me but my buddy was sitting across the table and saw it too. Made me wonder if my sweat was flammable

None other than in her mind none are qualified for the job.
A trait she inherited from her mother. :laugh2: :laugh2:

I can relate to that.

We got to the point we could tolerate each other....as long as we were in different zipcodes... an improvement over different time zones for a bunch of years....

Love my SIL and I love my DIL...

My DIL is perfect for edroson... She has a black belt in something...He didn't go all the way to black but should've.... I'd like to buy a giant bag of popcorn and watch that fight...

SIL is perfect for my daughter... Me saying that surprised my daughter... She still brings it up that when she was dating in HS, my rule was 'He' comes into the house to pick her up and will come in the house to bring her back home... It just worked out that I would be cleaning one of my 1911s every time... I told her I cleaned handguns on weekends. Just worked out that way....

She said 'Yeah, but you wouldn't even talk to em, you just would smile at em...... while putting your handguns back together.... You scared every damn one of em...' I love it when a plan comes together... I had no issues with her dates... Didn't phase my then future SIL when she was dating him in college.... We seemed to have an understanding. He understood me so I never had to explain 'me' to him. So we never had a single issue. Still don't..... Took him to the gun club a couple times when they were down. He understood. ;)

Is he the one that trimmed your daughters shrubbery (not bush) down to a nub?
