Mr. Foust, I'm not sure what you call rants….. but I have every reason to believe that my well thought out letter will be forwarded to the correct offices. As for being passed around the "hallowed halls." I really don't care. It is not my intention to be passed around the hallowed halls. As for "bowls of hoppin' John…." Well, Mr. Foust, I've gotta confess my ignorance. I've never heard it called that. You just may have more experience than I in this department… though I have no way of knowing. I'm not naive. I grew up in the sixties. So I know what you are alluding to. But quite frankly, you are wrong on this one. I was making light of you and your silly posturing. In responding to your whining, I accidentally typed in "Sorry, mon" instead of "Sorry, man." I started to correct it and then I realized it sounded funny… Like the accent in a commercial for the movie "Cool Running," about a Jamaican bobsled team. A movie I've never seen. But I decided to stay in character and go with it. That's the way my creativity works. A little insight for you. Drawing on another tv bit, I dropped in the old Uncola commercial. Leave it to you to interpret this as some kind of subversive message with subtle underpinnings. But now that you've pointed it out, I guess you could interpret the name of our establishment as meaning something other than was intended. And John, if you play this message backwards in your offline reader, you'll discover it contains a special message just for you….. You're fast outdistancing everyone in the race for "house whine." Keep up the good work. Your buddy, Mr. Small Fish
