Actually Peter Lucas was a real person and quite nice. He had someone
playing the same game as pud stain. He's long gone now of the stomach
cancer I am sure.

We exchanged a Christmas box from OZ to Virginia Beach. Just neat local
stuff we thought the other would like. Amazon wasn't the monster it is
now so he was curious about file powder for gumbos and Welches grape
jelly. I've loved Tea Tree oil ever since he sent some and the 3 little
pins of odd creatures there are still used about once a week on a lapel
jacket. He in turn had a field day with all the odd little local dry
rubs that aren't at all like the ones in OZ. Part of the gift was we
both wrapped everything in local grocery store ads.
