Yea he decided that the shady deal he did with Lou was not good so he thought we would pay $15,000 to buy the rights but I passed!

15K for that little space and probably no guarantee it might not be " reclaimed " by someone at a later date

Better check with JDR. I brought them 3 dozen English Muffins, 2 lbs of cheese, a liter of Absolute, and 1000 aspirin tabs on the 6th of Jan.

Hey Herbf,
I'm in town until Monday the 16th. Lets get together and have a drink on Sunday when you arrive. Say meet at Rockys around 10pm?

I hope you don't give up, I was looking for a good place to chill out. Good luck.

Damn 32 years at the same place is pretty much impossible today. I have been with my corp 9 years and that is like being a dinosaur

15 grand for that place ain't gonna happen. My guess is the "owner" was trying to pull a fast one on the gang.
Turnabout is fair play, though. The place is worth more open than closed. Screw the guy if he's trying to screw you..

I JUST ran into Lou while heading to Rocky's. He told me the story. I had NO idea. I dropped by stall#66 yesterday, and it was chained! Lou said his new place is still a couple of weeks away. The workers won't come when they're supposed to. When I saw him, he was still waiting for them to report to work. He's been waiting for five hours!!

Sounds like it may be an issue for the Canadian weekend...hope we can still have a beer or two with Lou...

We will just have to invite him to join us somewhere.... or stop by and drink there without the full facilities being available....

I just returned from Sosua Mon night. Lou is still shooting for the Grand Opening in time for the Canadian Invasion.......but he said even if the place isn't fully finished, we will still have a party there.

He has the BBQ grill......and I'm bringing the steaks.......Sunday, Jan 29th at 4pm. :D

Its to bad, could have been something big, but it just wasn't meant to be. Must be something better that is going to come up in the future.
