Paul,
Do you mean Chris " No Show" Ducklow? He got that nickname from the 3 or 4
times He's asked me to save him a spot... I lay out the cones on some choice
real estate, and every time the fucker ends up pitting with the pre-war MG
guys... (I don't hold a grudge after I get even...).
Good move on the brisket. I'm talking to the butcher about a quantity of
London Broils...
