Dammit Nick, you’ve ruined my whole weekend now So who do I have to kill to get one of these?

Its only a matter of time now before these start popping up on ebay, and you know they will…for astronomical prices.

Still Jealous…..

Thanks Nick…a great bottle…If I catch a plane, I can still make it.

All of us here (at home) are all sitting here looking at those pictures, and we all have that same look of defeat on our faces.

Whos got balls enough to open one, too taste it?

That’s at least 5 blair’s reserves that I’ll probably never have now…so long as I’m married that is. My wife would flip if I spent $400 + on a hot sauce. Suicide is looking good right about now

Im gonna go check ebay now. ——————————–Just kidding.

Theres a n-59 up on Ebay now……

Im seriously lacking, I dont own a single blairs “reserve”, someone want to give this lowly college student a job. Haha im looking for an orange county, california; Engineering Internship?

post a link parker…I can’t find it

I cant find the n-59 on ebay. Was that a joke?

Made ya look

WOW!

That was fun

That was nasty, lol

parker394 your moms up on ebay.

made ya look.

Yea…I guess it was

Sorry, I couldn’t resist

Allright no Mother comments now…..

You had me!

I gotta get one of those!!!

yea yea low blow, but i had nothing better.

I wonder when Blair will release the next one with a 24k gold skull… there’s gotta be one, surely? Just a matter of time

I still need a 24k skull to go with my 6AM. Nobody will part with one.

Yep, same situation here… got the 6am, but the only 24k skull I got is on top of my Caldera… can’t see anybody selling one though, I know I wouldn’t if I had one!

I don’t even have a caldera yet. about a year ago a guy was sold several 24k skulls on ebay, but I was unemployed at the time and couldn’t afford to be indulging myself with anything

that didn’t come out right. disregard the word “was” i nmy last post

now i can’t even type…damn cold medicine…i give up

My Caldera is a new acquisition – only arrived yesterday (courtesy of ebay), and sadly, probably due to temp fluctuations during shipping, developed a crack and corresponding leak !!!

I simply had to try some of the leaking stuff, being from the 10mil bottle at the top…. yeah, I dont know if my tongue has forgiven me yet – certainly the hottest thing I’ve ever tasted!!!

maybe we should all save off the picture cause its the closest we will get.

wait until next week when there will be only 5 lucky winners in that limited bunch of bottles?

The Calderas like to explode. LOL

I hope the baggage handlers in NM are on the up and up. There will be some good stuff (N-59) moving through there soon.

Can you imagine, getting an N-59 only to here “sorry sir, we lost you bag”?

I just noticed what Nick was talking about. It has white inside the purple resin. Like a bowling ball effect.

WoW it looks great!!! I wish i could of made it out there to get one. Now i have to take out a small loan just to snag one off of ebay lol.

I’d not noticed that before Scott – sure looks incredible! I can only hope that one does show up on ebay, and is available to the uk!!

I CAN SEE IT NOW….N-59 Starting bid 500.00

I have all kinds of unkind things running through my head at the moment…I won’t say them, but I had to get that out in the open

Take a breath ryan. If one does go up for sale, it may rival emans prototype caldera in terms of $.

Why did Blair have to make it so awesome? It would have been a whole lot easier to swallow if it were a “normal” bottle.

I’ll be fine tomorrow. I’m going to my local hot sauce shop to go on a shopping spree to help with my depression

good idea…think of how many bottles “normal” bottles you can buy for $100…work on the base of your collection.

Imagine owning #1

You guys can buy my Numbered 3AM . It has a bowling ball effect like the N-59. The yellow and red resin got hot and melted together to make the “N-59 effect”. Looks kinda cool with the red and yellow mixing together.

There you go Scott, list it on there and say its an N-59. Put a nice But it Now price on it. Anyone not reading this wont really know as they havent seen one yet…lol

I am just kidding on that!

My starting bid will be $1000. You to can have a 3AM like the N-59.

S———————TTT!!!!!!!!

That could be taken a couple different ways, Tracy. Could you elaborate a little more?

Wow. Those are super awesome looking! I should’ve gone, but oh well.

OK, OK, how about $999 for a first bid? LOL.

And ill even drizzle some vanilla cake icing on top of it.

Inhale..Exhale…Inhale…Exhale…all together now..in..out

better yet, fling some boogers at it…some really nice runny ones.

DEFCON Creator here, live from the NM show! Ahhh, a lull in the chaos. I can finally enjoy looking at my bookends of N-59. Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

HEY SMART GUY! Your really funny!!

Don’t forget Deffy, at some time in the very near future, you WILL be back in JERSEY! Enjoy!!

Bookends…you have 2???

arent you supposed to be at your booth???

Tracy, comment 47 (as ryan said) could be taken 2 ways.

I guess you are saying something about the N-59!
or talking about Scotts post above yours about selling his 3am N-59.

By the way Scott, good marketing tactic. There is only 1 3am/N-59 and you have it! See what you can learn here?

BTW Tracy, I did not say anything to Creator…wink

Creator – did you sell out of Batch 2 yet????

I still can’t figure out what the second way might be..scratch head…I must be missing something

I sent you the answer Tracy

So Mr. Creator sir….what do you want for one of your N-59s?

Scott, your 3am/N-59 isnt listed yet?

ryan, why dont you call someone in china and see if they can produce an N-59 knock-off for us??? It doesnt need the hot sauce in it, as we would not open it anyway!

thanks chris k for the email…I get it now..

I meant..SHeyeT!!!

I know what you meant…just funny it was afters scotts post. sometimes it changes here so quick that when you type an answer or a comment, what you were talking about ends up several comments above where it should go.

I think N-59 is code word for….N-YOUR FACE!!!

or NOT any of these 59!

Ok guys, it does look as if the Batch #2 just might be available after the show. Granted it’s only the first day, but in my infinite wisdom, I think we will have some left. Perhaps it’s a mixed blessing. Since we are so new to this industry, not many people outside these various blogs even know what a DEFCON-ZERO is. Most of the people who have inquired about it so far just have sheer horror in their eyes. Kinda strange, but good for all of you guys, the few people who have gotten them really like the new packaing, it is really cool. Anyway, back to the masses…

how about “Not for sale online -59″

Creator – How much you selling it for?

Think what I’ll do is finish off this bottle of 3AM I’ve been slowly but surely consuming and just go to my local craft store to get some sealing wax and make my own I’ll fill it with grape juice

Hey Creator…buddy ole pal…I sure hope that you have a wonderful fun filled time in NM..Just thinking of you buddy..disregard my previous comments to you..it was really my wife posing as me. Your the best Defcon, Your Pal, Tracy

The #2′s are going for $40.

I need to get at least one of those, Mr Creator sir

Hey Creator, Don’t listen to Tracy, that a$$ kisser…. On a more serious note: do you want me to go shovel your walk while you are away? I’d hate for you to come home from a long trip and have to walk through ice and snow…..
(sorry Tracy!)
-=john=-

good idea ryan,
call it the cryin ryan i-wasnt-there-so-I-made-my-own N-59
heck I want one.

another bottle to the collection, thats what it is all about.

Heck, you shovel the snow/ice huvason, I will pick Creator up from the airport and carry his bags in.

in terms of names, I was thinking more along the lines of BS-1 :-p

Wow that N-59 looks nice! I cant wait to see what the second edition ZERO looks like!

Hey Creator – Let me know if you can send one of those DefCon 0′s out to Canada.

Also guys – check back soon – My Hot Sauce Hottie has some new Pics ready!!!

If you cant tell already buy all the comments here

AWESOME job on that bottle Blair!!!

how are you going to top that???

darn it: by not buy

Like wise Anthony. Soon as Nick gets back he’s gonna post a couple picks from me. One being my wife with a hot sauce, the other is the horror I unleashed on Albuquerque!

Hey huvason!! Check this out..Creator Sir, On your flight home, if you have a layover in Atlanta, I would be more than happy to drive the 7hrs it would take for me to get there, just so I could buy you a BIG ICE COLD BEER!!!

If I win tonights lottery I am going to commission my own Reserve. (I hope you are reading Blair!)

Just thought I would mention again that if anyone is up for a hot sauce chat you can always find me on MSN messenger at delerious110 at hotmail . com

I am humbled by the generous offers, even though the ulterior motives are quite humorous.

Oh Yeah Tracy….
I’ll drive down IN A BEER TRUCK. Creator names the BEER, I’ll find the truck!

Now THAT is an offer!

Yeah I think I’ve now come to terms that I won’t be getting an N-59!! I wish I could but don’t think anyone will let them go for anywhere near their price tag – do you blame them?!? me neither.

does anyone have any idea of the scoville rating of the N-59? I’m still loving my B-99 as I ony first saw it 2 nights ago – it’s #18

please Mr Creator let us know where I can get a DEFCON-ZERO after the show. I wanted one of the first batch but was a bit slow on the uptake. I’d definately love to see one in my collection though

Alright people
We’re here! Weather is Georgous! Was in Old Town today. Going to the show today

There goes the “O” face again!!!!

Will be back tonight! Gots to go.

Matt, not a problem. Do remember, after the show, IF there is some left, it will be a first come first serve basis, it’s really the ONLY way to make it fair.

I gotta get me some of the ZERO hoping I get in on that first come first serve thing! Hopefully it doesnt get all bought up at the show

Creator, I can make a one time cash offer – Just counted my change jar. $40.23 US CASH.

How’s that for an offer?

On second thought, Can you please post your address. I will be waiting there when you get back

Where is Nick??? must be really involved today!

today is the deadline for the Ultimate Signed Blogger Sauce

hows that bottle coming ryan???

Scott still no 3am/N-59 up there for sale???

Taking a break at the moment Chris…need to regenerate some taste buds before I continue to finish off this 3AM

I just checked out extremefood.com and Blair has added my helmet pic to the pics of my collection! My geekness has now grown beyond the HSB.

O man that N-59 looks sweet! 787 miles, 12 hours and 7 mins, that’s how long yahoo tells me it will take me to get there from California.
– Hey Daniel up for a road trip?

Creator, How do we actually go about buying when you get back? What day will it be available?

I had a bottle of beer and a bottle of Sudden Death in front of me.

I grabbed a bottle for a sip and it was the wrong one……….

Ive done slaughter sauce in frozen yogurt, and jalepenos in icecream, i fear not chocolate covered habeneros.

Sorry guys, I had to go out for a while. Ill send some pics of my 3am-N-59 bottle to nick in a few. Ill see what you guys think. LOL. Also that bottle of the “Unbearable” sauce is cool. I got one about 4 years ago. Really nice looking bottle.

ryan, you finish that 3am yet?
I just got done drowning my sorrows by eating a buffalo chicken cheesesteak (with a bit of extra hot sauce)

Cool pics…thanks Nick for bringing us some of the show.

I’ve gota make a show at least once – as soon as I’m ou of uni it may become an every year event

Sorry Chris, that’s a no. Been trying to get some work done…hence my little in the way of posting today

Great pics Nick, I’m jealous beyond all jealousness…

Yea HUGE Thanks for the photo’s…I was feeling pretty down about not being there. I feel Much better now.

Next year!

Thank you Nick, my capsaicin-based homunculus is now a media darling.

I sent some pics of my 3am to Nick. We will see if he will post em. I like my 3am!!!!!!!

I like ALL of the AM’s!

I should have set up a “Help Scott get to NM fund”. I want to buy some sauce there.

Parker, nice pics on Blair’s site!! Noticed the shortboards in the background. Please tell me that they belong to the kid next door.

Ummmm….No They belong to me.

The kid next door plays video games

well i’ll forgive this once..the old skool decks make up for your shortfallings in surf equip..haha

Creator, is that your entry for an HSB Hottie
- your capsaicin-based homunculus?

just asking, thats all.

mattuk I agree
the show, next year

don’t forget about the show in Houston during Sept..

I’ve even more jealos after the new picks! Damn, I wish I were there
-=john=-

Whoops… meant I’m even…. not I’ve…
Too many beers tonight.
-=john=-

Cheers John!! You’re not alone..

Cheers! Unfortunately I have to work tomorrow, so I have to stop soon!

I don’t know how to send a pic but I am the very proud owner of 19 of 59. Nick, Cheffy & Bob, MSK, CREATOR, I sorry I had to bail. I owe everyone a beer! My (pregnant) wife and Jr. couldn’t take any more. I had to go. Sooo. This show is F^&kin Awesome. Mad scandal!!!! Appairently the N-59 wasn’t supposed to be sold untill Blair sows up tomorrow. We’ll I was under the impression that vendors were only allowed in today. So me like an edjit was doddling arround today. Seeing old town and the rattle snake museum. I came back to the casista (like a hotel) and I wanted to check out the web site for the show. I saw that it was open at 4:00 to the general public (YIKES!) My poor wife just wanted to go to sleep. I was like “COME ON WE GOT TO GO NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Well I got just about the last one. eman call me. This show rules. I got to meet up with some of the lads (Nick tomorrow man!) which is just unbelievable. Great food, Great people, I just dosn’t get better than this. I can’t wait for tomorrow. I met CAJohn. Some German fellow Harrold who has Germany’s first hot shop. I’ll see him in June for the World Cup. All I have to say is YEAHHHHHHHH BAAAABY!

sorry guy’s but I just tapping away here. And I have to say one more thing before I turn of puter and put my sauce in the safe – Na NaNa Na Na NA

That’s it! Lock me in a rubber room!

Mad, don’t have your cell #

Look’s like we have been busy today, anyone still up?

I’m still up, it’s only 9:12 here.

Mad, that was just cruel man. Thanks for rubbing it in.

Chris K, do I understand there is cynicism behind the HSB Hottie being my capsaicin-based homunculus? My little friend, who has been a steadfast guardian of the various cultures and gene-bending experiments that are evolving in my fridge, has an eternal and unwavering commitment to its pledge of Defcon Global Domination, and will not end its firm vigil until The Creator has acheived his true purpose of global assimilation. And even then, the homunculus should win, it has 3 eyes.

Sorry…. ryan, just shot you an email

what in the world is a homunculus?

“YES PAT, I WOULD LIKE TO BUY A CLUE FOR A $100″

No need to appologize Eric, for I have sent you a reply

Nick – I’ve been talking to my wife about the various discussions that have been going on here and she says “Tell Nick that if he adds a chat to the blog I’ll hunt him down and do very bad things”…Sorry, I may be the man in this outfit, but I can’t control her

There anyone other than myself that’s on the west coast? It gets awfully lonely here at night (on the blog that is)

I’m on the West Coast Ryan – Just got off work (11pm)

As I mentioned creator, I was just asking?

Thanks Mad for rubbing our noses in it – Im guessing that someone (after you sign) will white-out your name on our labels! I am kidding, just kidding! I had to say it. It will NOT happen.

ryab and eman, isnt this how the whole signed bottle thing started anyway. It was after talking about another special bottle to get of minds off the N-59 lol

sorry ryab (ryan) I just got up and had to check in for a couple of minutes. kind of like sleep-blogging.

Hows your 3am venture coming??? finish it yet!

Mad, (from comment 131: Appairently the N-59 wasn’t supposed to be sold untill Blair sows up tomorrow)

sounds like there was confusion with the N-59 and when it was to be sold? Maybe there should be another issue of ?-59 since some will miss out???

Thanks ryan, now Nick might think about a chat just to find out the consequences??? lol

Creator, I did some checking:
“The concept of a homunculus (Latin for “little man”, sometimes spelled “homonculus,” plural “homunculi”) is often used to illustrate the functioning of a system. In the scientific sense of an unknowable prime actor, it can be viewed as an entity or agent.”
“The term appears to have been first used by the alchemist Paracelsus. He once claimed that he had created a false human being that he referred to as the homunculus. The creature was to have stood no more than 12 inches tall, and did the work usually associated with a golem. However, after a short time, the homunculus turned on its creator and ran away…”

Houston during Sept – now that sounds interesting!! I’ll be working all summer so mite just have enough ££ to get there. Now to convince and drag someone with me so the flight wouldn’t be too boring. Also depends what’s there

Chris, you are partially correct, and I’m glad to see you did the research. Homunculi are “created” beings. The problem the previous alchemical tinkerers had was for one, THEY were not “The Creator”, and number 2, the homunculi they had were probably treated poorly, whilst mine is treated with the utmost in respect and is given free reign within his refrigerator realm. To even consider my homunculus a form of golem is to consider it less than a living being, for a golem has no heart or soul, no emotion, just a preprogrammed pseudo-life form. When Defcon acheives it’s global domination, the homunculus will be given a title of its choosing. Man, to think I just woke up.

Yeah, getting kicked out of the bar last night was very interesting.

NO WAY! Guys, I praying I can get the hall pass tonight. I here two days and basically “no beer”. That is so funny! I was looking for you guys just to tell you I had to bail but ….. Anyway I’m going nuts today, Can’t wait to see Blair. And to all my chillihead friends… sorry for rubbing it in, i don’t know what came over me. Maybe it was the cool wax, or the number, or maybe it was the cool sticker that says LIMITED EDITION but anyway.. Didn’t mean to rub it in (too much hehehehe).

Hey Creator…. You now show up TWICE on the list of top posters!!! Does that mean you are twice as cool as the others?

Good eye huvason…how did that happen? Maybe its his Capsacin-Based Homunculous that posted those.

Creator, I had to look up some info on your Capsacin-Based Homunculous . If I dont fully understand something, I like to find out more about it. I am not knocking it, just curious.
Will the Capsacin-Based Homunculous end up on a defcon sauce bottle or label?

Creator…My 3 yr old son is sitting here next to me and looking at some recent bottles in my colllection. (they are sitting next to my desk as I need to finish my family room to display – another story). For some reason, he keeps after the Defcon 1 bottle. (I recently got another) Out of about 10 bottles on the floor (recent aquisitions) , that seems to be his favorite. (based on the look of the bottle or what – sorry not on taste yet – havent broken him in yet). He also likes the skulls on Blair’s bottles since his is way into pirates. Tracy, he likes the “jolly roger” on the Cape Fear also. Since I explained the names to him thats all I am hearing now. defcon 1 blair’s, defcon 1, blair’s…

And no, he cannot access these bottles unless I am near him. I (my desk) has been shunned to the basement. I make sure not to let my (or any chid) near my bottles. Not only because they are glass and collectible. But also the intense heat if one would break and get in eyes, hands, etc…
Sometimes I think people need to be aware of what is inside these and make sure to keep the out of reach of children and amatures. I know its on the bottles, but some dont take warnings seriously.

My 6 year old daughter won’t even go near my hot sauce (she’s obviously a lot smarter than me!)

Hey Mad – If can procure my “package” let me know. Send me an email.
-=john=-

ok, reguarding post 151 and 153 , you guys have way too much time!! But then again, I’m the one who asked lol

Just to let everyone know, episode one as Captain Capsicum is in process, the ideas are a flyn’

yea eman,
and you were wagering $100 for the answer (comment 140)

Nick – Sorry to burst your bubble, but my wife’s exact words were “kill him”, but I didn’t want to leave such a threat on here.

Chris – not to worry about the chat things. My wife is the woman that coined the phrase “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”…Nick wouldn’t know what hit him

Mad – Its all good man, I’m glad that some N-59s found their way into good hands

Chris – don’t sweat the typo. Got a fax at work the other day that had my name spelled “Bryn” and its not as bad as Nick getting my last initial wrong

In regards to Blair making a new resere since the N-50 wasn’t supposed to be sold today, maybe he’ll make an M-40…that way it would be a complete NM set of 99

Ryan, just don’t sign it wrong when you get the label, you would never live it down.

MSK needs to be watching out for “head hunters”…next thing ya know we’ll see his head up for auction on ebay

LOL. I’ll do my best DK. Perhaps I’ll put my helmet on just to be sure

ryan, check out the comments under fiery foods show – friday night…eman is already to bid on it

I just caught that a bit ago. I just got up about 30 min. ago. waiting for the coffee and cold medicine to kick in…still need a few more cigs too

Well, I’m off to the showers. Gotta get ready to do some hot sauce shopping. Check back with you guys later!

Ok, its later and I’m checking in

HEY, how come no pictures of DEFCON ZERO, Batch #2?

The camera lens keeps cracking.

OK, so let’s make our best guesses. How many days before the first N-59 shows up on eBay? I say one will surface in the next 7 days.

I say by Tuesday. The show will be over and people will be home by then. That gives them a day to return, unpack, get rested up and have pics taken to put on ebay

There’s a camera out there that can take pictures of the guys around here, then there must be one that can take a picture of the new ZERO

Hey ryan…I just got back from some hot sauce shopping myself. There is a local farmer’s market near me with a hot sauce stand. I was never there before, and he has a bunch of cool stuff. Nothing that I havent seen on ebay or SNS though, but alot more than I thought. He even had a 2 and 3 am (not numbered though) and 10% off all Blair’s.
I picked up a couple of bottles to add to my collection, just stuff I did not have already. I also picked up a (new label) Hot Sauce From Hell for $3 cause it expired. Seems he sells off all expired sauce etc at a low price. I will be sure to keeping checking that section out. Heck, if its going to sit in my collection, its ok if its expired.

Them chocolate habneros looked tasty. I think I might look into getting an “Unbearable” sauce.

That N-59 reserve is sweet!!!!!! I would’nt mind trading my left hand for one…. JK

Sounds like you and your better half are off and runnin’. Keep it up!!!

That’s the same way I feel about it Chris. As long as the bottle and lebel/wax are in good condition, I don’t care how old it is if its going in the collection. There’s a couple farmers markets that go on near me, one I haven’t been to, the other has a booth that sells a huge variety of hot sauce, but he’s kinda hit and miss for attendance. I think he’s one of the owners of Taste the Pain. Unfortunately, neither of the markets are open until Spring. For now I have to drive about 30 minutes to the nearest LeGourmet Chef. They’ve got a few goodies, but again, nothing horribly special. I picked up 5 bottles there, and 1 off of ebay today.

Pam – Glad to know I’m not the only one. What state are you in, and what do you do that you don’t get off work til 11 PM? You don’t have to answer that, I’m just the curious type

Just a note to anyone that liked the Chile North Ice Hot sauces. I just bought up the last four bottles of 2003 run. I will let anyone on this blog have first shot at em (only 3 available as I will keep one for myself) they will be getting Hand signed and numbered according to the certificate they come with, usually they just come with the cert I think no bottle signing. The ’03 run had 360 bottles. I have numbers 265, 270, 271 & 283 (haven’t arrived yet but will be this week). pmacdonald ‘@’ ruci.ca. If no one replies I will shoot them up on eBay once they arrive, but I saw a little interest in them so I figured I would give you guys first shot. Just email me don’t post interest here in the blog asking me to email you etc that would be silly since I have already left my e-mail addy. :Note to Nick L if this post is in anyway against some sort of rule that I was unaware of…PLEASE delete it right away as I do not intend to offend the blog masses

Defcon creator. DAMN d00d you are using a creature from another planet as your mascot, that was a Hollywood star to boot. Thats about as comercial as it gets. Does your sauce go good on Chicken Little i wonder. That mascot probably eats Chicken Little in the next movie once he gets bigger, he would no doubt use a little chicken wing sauce to go with Mr. Little’s charred crispy carcas…mmmmm chicken wings. Ahem uhh n/m got carried away. time to go eat chicken little, err little chicken wings.

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

Hey Nick.. What do you think we should do to get on this “reserve” wagon and have our sauces selling for $40.00?? Possibly add a keychain with a picture of us in bikinis Creator… what do you think??

Yes Cheffy, “The HSB is a one stop location for reviews,
news, recipes & anything else related to hot sauce and spicy foods”.

At that price, you better attach a signed bikini to to bottle?
sorry Nick, I guess we cant go there.

Lisa, the “reserve” wagon is a good thing to be on, however I know that collectors are starting to question paying top $ for the more and more limited and special bottles out there.

Yeah,
I have been collecting reserves for some time now. I just can’t hang with you guys. They are getting to be way too expensive. They are nice to have, but not worth me losing my marriage over. (maybe the cutting room floor is?)

Lisa, that was not an attack or anything on you or your company, and look forward to your products on sale at SNS.
It just brings up a good point that has been discussed off of the blog. As a collector, I need to point out (and others agree) that there is an increasing # of limited/special/signed bottles entering the market. We all seem to jump on them like they are gold and in essence fuel this fire.
While this is not a bad thing, it is making it harder to collect all of these simply because of the price. Maybe thats the idea, but it also means that with this flood, there people actually getting turned off by this explosion. The special bottles started to be a way of thanking the hot sauce customer for being loyal and to offer something specail to them. This, like most things has escalated into almost everyone having a special bottle. This is an open market and that is fine, it just doesnt sit that well with some chileheads that there is an increasing # of special bottles out there by just anyone.
Personally, I like most of the special bottles and would love to have most of them. Each collector has his on “rules” on what they bring into their collection. That being said, I dont think the chileheads will accept to many more $ bottles from the less know manufacturers.

Well all you guys dont have to worry we promise to never put a “reserve” out there, maybe just a special addition bottle with a great shot of us on there, and I PROMISE it wont be overpriced

BTW Nick your pics were emailed just now.. hope you guys like them

Good news, Thanks Lisa. As I said, that was not meant toward you, it just brought (back) up a topic that has been circulating amongst the collectors outside the HSB. Please dont let that deter you from doing something special. Besides, no one has threated to make us cry before.

Chris… I really didnt take that as anything towards us, I was actually making a joke of it, when I see some of these prices that are getting paid for “reserve” bottles, and I dont mean you Defcon, I mean the bottles going for hundreds, it kind of aggrivates me that people are getting taken advantage of… It is like paying 300 bucks for a tickle me ELMO…

I know, thats why I had to mention it on here. It is talked about and I dont think many manufacturers know this. I am putting myself out here on a limb, but I only speak what I hear. Most of our favorites, (they are regulars here) we have no problem with their special bottles and look forward to them. But, when every 3rd bottle on the market is collectible, then it “lessens” waht really is collectible.

we really need a spellchecker…sorry

Its hard to type when my IE window is so small, cant let the rest of the folks (at work) know Im on here…lol

Chris, I gave you guys a link to an IE plugin spell checker:
http://www.iespell.com/
Works pretty well!
-=john=-

EXACTLY!!! Thats what I was trying to say. Its nice and the packaging is cool looking but if they come out that often.. whats really making them so special and valuable I think we will stick with the bikini shot

Lisa, Jodie and Kristi…….

I can’t thank you enough for making our first meeting one to be remembered!!! The photo shoot with Nick and I was an absolutely one of the most fun moments of the entire weekend!

I look forward to seeing all of you at every show.

Randy the…”Mississippi Sauce King”

Randy
It was our pleasure!!!! We already have a spot saved for you in our booth at Zest Fest xoxxo Lisa, Kristi and Jodie

The Creator understands this, hence the reason only a few bottles are available. For the price, The ZERO seems to be one of the less expensive of the specials. But seriously, Defcon HQ isn’t making a ton of money off of these things, with the time and effort that goes into them. I don’t see any more than 40 or 50 of these things ever being offered as a batch. We intend to get more and more creative with the bottling, which in turn costs us a little more, but it definitely stands out on your “Shelf of Doom”. By the way, the ZERO’s are in Kansas as we speak, and we should have them next week some time.

Dear Chilipals, First of all it was great seeing many of you at the Show in NM …I am very happy to read that you love the N-59 as much as I do…Lots of time and love went into each bottle….Enjoy um…..On a different note…..While I was only in New Mexico for only 48hrs I picked up the Worst Flu bug of my life..(I have not had a flu bug in over 10 years)….In fact I was rushed to the Hospital when I got back to NJ with 105 fever (Trust me at that temp even 16 million Reserve seems like Ice cream) … In any event I am fully aware that on March 10th 2006 my 5 Cutting room Champions are to be chosen–Well as you can imagine….This is not going to happen on the 10th…I have not even spent 1 minute at Death Sauce HQ in over a week. Anyway I just wanted to provide an update and when your Fellow Chilipal is back to his Normal (Crazy) self …Soon I think…I will be sending out the winners via our General VIP Email system and VIA Extremefood.com …All my Best and as always you know FEEL ALIVE….Your Eternal Chilipal Blair

hope you get very ALIVE soon!

At least it sounds like the worst part is over for you Blair….take care.
remember to gargle with Mega, take two swigs of Jersey every 4 hours, and rub alittle Death Rain Nitro on your chest before bed and you’ll be feeling fully ALIVE in no time!

Get better man.

Hope your feeling better!!!!!!!!! Nothing like traveling and getting sick, thats about the worst!!!!!!!

GWS Blair! But Karin is holding down the fort well I hear

Regards,

Paul MacDonald

It must be a bad flu bug. The high consumption of sauce usually kills anything in the body. Kick that flu’s ass Blair!!!

Drink plenty of liquids …. hope you feel better soon

WoW. Now that this contest has been delayed people are gonna be on pins and needles All twitchy and sh*t. If you thought it has gotten rough around here before, its gonna be a room full of people waking up at a convention and no coffee available. You better get well REAL soon big guy! You may inadvertently be responsible of the implosion of the Blog as we know it.
The author is not in any way responsible for making you laught cry or otherwise feel better about yourself, however you might feel better knowing you would have never typed anything quite so silly. Side effects might include nausea doubt of sanity thoughts self induced diareah(spelling) and the occasional though to kick me off the blog. OK and I just had confirmation that this whole thing is pretty gay(in a stupid way)
Get Well Soon Blair!
