Stan's one of the cooler guys on rec.food.cooking, pete...he loves ketchup,
Heinz specifically...he's a cat lover, too...

BTW I'd add that if you have a pair of scissors and some vinyl sheeting you
could prolly run up a bunch of placemats...buy a roll of that ribbed plastic
shelf lining and make placemats out of that...not only thrifty and practical
but very "minimalist" cool...
