Questions:

Who said you can't charge long green to hear OKOM? ;-)

Did Molly order the most expensive wine on the menu? ;-)

Can Woody bring his wife? :-)

Given Woody's grip on a buck, does the rest of the band make more than 802 Scale? ;-)

Cheers,
Steve Barbone

PS. Wonder if the rest of the band gets more than Local 802 AFM scale? And can Woody
bring his wife?
