Mr. Popcorn

Hello All,
I had a wonderful Christmas in Evansville, Indiana and I certainly hope that
you and yours had a very merry one too!
Now that everyone is sated after eating more than they can eat, thanking
everyone for their presents and saying hello to relatives you've never met or
didn't want to talk too, I have something to share with you all.
Monday, on the flight from Evansville, Indiana to Nashville, Tennesee I met and
talked with the Orville C. Reddenbacher. For those who don't know, Mr.
Reddenbacher has marketed the most famous gourmet and microwave popcorn in the
U.S. There he was in his red suit jacket and bow tie. I thought to myself
that this guy was going to a popcorn convention as a look-alike or he was the
real McCoy. I glanced down at his briefcase and read the initials O.C.R. A
very nice man indeed.
Regards,
John Chang
Was he handing out any freebies?
The only time I ran across Colonel Saunders (in person, that is), he handed
out a free coupon to all kids who approached him.
–Jim p.s. Naaah .. I didn't get a look at the coupon,
but I'm SURE it wasn't for rubber chicken!
