I go off to big "D" in the huge State of Texas for a couple of days and the Tavern appears to go to pot while I'm gone! Nobody knows who's pouring evidently and nobody's giving Alison a well earned foot massage. Big Mick, where the hell are you? I thought I raised you better than that. Alison is a needin' and you are nowhere in sight! Well, Alison, I guess by default I'll just have to fill in for Big Mick. A chore I don't dread at all.
