It wasn't that hard, fellow with said stability boot walking away from an
Ivory '84 Westy.

I did not divulge that I had been commissioned by the WetWesties at the
ReUnion to try and determine whether "Rocket J Squirrel" is a real person or
perhaps a robo-emailer. I didn't check his ID, but I think I earned my fee.
Is my check in the mail?
