Well, I met ALL of them because when they were in Key West in 1981, they ate at the Restaurant/Bar/Deli attached to Fast Buck Freddy's named "TUX" that I managed then. Then Glenn Hughes, the Biker, STOLE my best bartender and they remained together until one of them died about ten years ago of cancer. For three years I have been in often "messaging contact" with Randy Jones, who is from my part of North Carolina and does a fundraiser at Carolina Beach every year -- so hope to meet him AGAIN, personally, soon.

>>> SO EVERYTHING HAS GONE CRAZY IN POLITICS, and I'm so weak from evacuating that I will make no comments of substance, today.
For your amusement:
1. Blog hits remain in record territory, and "Rene Saffo Divorce" has come back as a popular "Search Key Word".
2. BY FAR, the MOST hit post of the past month is:
3. This posting of yesterday shows signs of "going viral" -- hits so far are HUGE:

4. A CAUTIONARY TALE from James Bow, a Chevron executive in Houston:
Beware: Call me naive, but I made a big mistake a couple years ago. I was stopped by a cop for a non-moving violation (non- functioning tail light). I had just cleaned out my car that weekend, so I didn't have my driver's license on me. I got a ticket for both.
I had just started a new position at work in a new location, so I was very busy and distracted. I completely forgot about the ticket until the day before I was to be in court. All I needed to do was show up with my insurance card and proof of the repair. As it turned out, I had a very important meeting that day; so dummy me simply paid the fine over the internet to avoid missing my court date. I was NOT aware what this meant. It meant:
1. I was admitting my guilt to not having insurance
2. The state of Texas puts me in a 3 year driver responsibility program which means I have to cough up $260 a year for the next three years. Which they have zero communication with me about during the second year. I just found out I've been driving on a suspended license for MONTHS (which I was unaware of) because I hadn't paid my fee.
3. There is no way to avoid paying the fee even if I can show I have/had insurance. Once you "admit guilt", you are paying almost $800 over the next 3 years.
