    I just used two of his grills to cook hotdogs and hamburgers at the office today for my staff... One of the chief duties of the office manager, and using the legacy of a truly great heavyweight champion and food lover....

    Cheers George...

    I truly believe that the George Foreman grill should ad to his already great legacy.... Beating Joe Frazier, winning the gold medal, and becomming the oldest heavyweight champion, were all great acheivments, but the grill trumps them by far.. No one else, including Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, or Muhammad Ali were able to launch such a feat.

    I really need to buy one of those! Yes...it's a sad bit of evidence of my ability to procrastinate that I don't own one of those legendary grills already. :oops:

    j/k but that was cool of you to do that for them.

    What were their reactions when you pulled out the two grills?

    Its something that I usually try to do at least 3 times per year.. I work in a doctor's office, and most of the time, our lunches are brought by drug companies.. As of last week, we had no lunch meetings scheduled for today, so I informed the office that we were having a barbecue lunch... Everyone brought in food.. I supplied the hot dogs and hamburgers, plus the grills and did all the cooking... Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves..;)

    True, but in all seriousness, the Foreman grill is a pretty good product... Its easy to use, simple to clean and cooks food efficiently... I own two of them..

    Yeah, but I understand he only sleeps on your couch until he sells the next one. Then he moves to their couch. Think of it as an incentive to help him sell to your friends and neighbors. :D

    My mum had all the family round for a barbeque on Saturday night, for some reason George Foreman grills came up in conversation which led to me and my uncle discussing his merits as a fighter. My cousin stopped us whilst we were talking and basically asked us what the **** we were talking about. Turns out neither she, her pal or my 2 sisters knew he was a boxer, they actually thought we were taking the **** out of them.
