I promise you that when I finally get to visit Gypsum, I will be eating at Weller's.
I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.
Pardon me. Does your deaug bite?

Pat, Great to see your son successful in his restaurant business.
My daughter and son-in-law own a Sonic Drive In and have done very well
with it. Great to see your kids doing well isn't it. Tell him Congrats, and yes,
there needs to be a bunch of slicks parked out front for a picture for sure.
Maybe we can make that happen soon. TR

Good job Pat,
the Son sounds like a solid American!

now if he can just hire some scantly gladded women as waitresses!
something better looking than that guy in the Farm all hat!

oh wait!
to many old people!
the population may drop along with his business if the old guys start dropping on the floor!
