Alec<br>I worked with the man who invented Brylcreem for a few years.<br>He also Patented all of revlons lipsticks.<br><br>Super great old man and filthy rich, with allot of stories to tell. He also was the cheapist SOB I ever met. Man the guy was CHEAP. I did a small remodle job for him at his home - he had just installed new carpet and all the interior doors needed to be cut down so they would not drag on the carpet.<br><br>I told him that I would charge him 150.00 dollars to do the job. He agree to my fee and I completed the job to his satisfaction.<br><br>When It came time to pay up the old gheeezer bought me a half of a hamburger and a short beer "those little 6oz miller beers" and said I trade you this for the work that I did. We got into this major discussion about a deal is a deal. After awhile I decided to take the loss and gave up but I manage to also get his collection of old records like Bobby V. When I got the records home they all where badly scratch you could not play them.<br><br>Somebody told me he was called (half a hamburger short beer Hammond) he has done that before and just found a new sucker.<br><br><br><br>
Too many strippers and $1 draft beers... that's what it'll do to your brain... move down here to Phoenix so I can dry it all out and use it again! <br><br><br>[color:red]semicolon dash parenthesis</font color=red>
