WHEN I GOT MORE BEER LAST WEEK
IT WASN’T SUCH A BIG SURPRISE
I knew very well that after all these years of
a little beer and lots of customers there would
come a time of lots of beer and just a few cus­

take out.
Next Sunday we will have our famous
chicken dinner.

NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with
equalizing assessment values.
