Brian! I've been corrected….The actual name of the Place is "OutBack Jack's RoadKill Grill & Cafe".( Hence the Aussie Idem ) …I luv' it! <BG> We had a Ma's too only this was more than a couple years ago when the drinking/driving age was 18….She owned a bar/resort way the heck outa town. If she ( Ma' had to be in her 50's) thought you had too much she would throw you out…sometimes even physically! I remember one time a couple o' guys had too much and deceided they wanted to fight…she grabbed her baseball bat and shoved em' both in the ribs so hard they hit the floor then she told em' to take it out side….sorta took all the macho out of it! <BG> Oh Ya' as a reminder not to drive and drink too much she had photo's of literally _Every_ car accident that literally everyone was in that ever stopped at her place. The entire ceiling and three walls were full by the time I was old enough to belly up to the bar. The bar had 7 barstools and you had to not fight over them or you were out. Two pool tables a real nice lake for fishing or throwing your buddies in, and I never ever saw a cop at her place not even to say hi! Oh' Ya' The Bar was pretty much a tar-paper shack attached to her house and she'd walk up what used to be the 3 back steps to the house to her kitchen when you ordered anything like a hamburger. She'd keep an eye on the place from what use to be the old kitchen window in to the bar whilst she was preparing your dinner. Acutally it was even more colorful than this but…you kinda hada be there to really appreciate it. <g> I'm ramblin' to I'll go away now. Murph'
