BE CAREFUL MONTANALO! These turds are up to no good on private property. With their limited scruples, be on your toes and make sure you know when they are released back into the wild. Drug dealers can be replaced, upstanding Cowboy fans can't. Yes, we're that valuable.
On to the mystery of the foil covered brick. Maybe it was to preserve the original color to compare to the other bricks after a certain period of time. Maybe it was a gift to the original homeowner upon completion of their home. Maybe the brick thought the government was spying on its thoughts. Maybe it wanted better reception of Super Bowl I. There are many logical reasons for a brick being covered in foil.Good afternoon Pops and everyone.
Ok, all kidding aside, while my user name here is GrammaJan, I am only 54 years old (7 grandkids, but I’m not the one who had them so don’t judge the #) so I’m having a little trouble understanding something I just found in the house I bought almost 2 years ago.
When my back gets better, I will get out the stepstool and more fully investigate the cupboards in the kitchen, but today I ran across a foil covered brick (like for building a house, not something smuggled across the border in the fender of a car) in one of the upper cabinets. The person I bought this house from was fairly religious and did not believe in ghosts, so if it was her that left it here I’ve kind of ruled that idea out for her having put it there… but I’m just not sure what other use it would have in the house considering where it was located. It certainly was not accessible as a weapon should somebody break in (and I have alternate, more automatic options for that circumstance - that’s a callback to ColoCowboy’s message earlier). Doorstop is definitely out of the question, and there is no cooking grease or other film on it that would indicate that she used it to compress chicken, bacon or other items while cooking in the oven. Does anybody hear have any ideas about what this might have been for? Perhaps it belonged to the person that she bought the house from and he was trying to fend off ghosts. I don’t know. I just found it to be an odd discovery. Clearly I need to more fully investigate the cabinets and cupboards in the house.
Go ahead. let’s hear everyone’s entertaining thoughts on the what and why of this thing.
Good afternoon Pops and everyone.

Since it is wrapped in foil and I have two like that, I am assuming that is for cooking Chicken Under a Brick. The brick is used to weigh down the spatchcocked (OK, just leave it alone. I mean it, I'll have to use my bullet) chicken while it is either roasted or grilled and the skin gets really crispy and the chicken cooks quickly. The foil keeps the brick clean. The brick is not actually used on the chicken but on an inverted baking pan to flatten out the bird.Good afternoon Pops and everyone.

I'm sorry, I can't get past the fact that you're just now finding a foil wrapped brick in your cupboard.Good afternoon Pops and everyone.

Someone, a very crafty someone, has been in your house hiding foil covered bricks from short people. There are others, I am sure of it. Does Randy Newman live in your town, he would be my first guess. Or a very drunk Peter Dinklage.
I like to make her laugh.
Hell yeah, when I delivered furniture, the weather didn't matter. We'd be out there in a blizzard, making people happy. If they won't deliver in 15° they aren't worthy of tipping when they finally do bring it, assuming it's the same guys.
And it's real purty too!Afternoon Pops and Popsadoodles. Mondanalo, you need one of these for those hoodlums. As Yosemite Sam saiys "when I say Private Property, I mean Private Property!" or "when I say I want my mattress, I mean NOW!" or "inlaws and outlaws not welcome".
