At least his son's name is Jim (he is the actual owner of the SVX) which gives a little bit of "SCOTT separation".

These are definitely odd developments, but that is what is so fun about this network! We are a small SVX contingent here, but maybe as this rep grows we will rival the PA and Illinois folks.

Glad we could furnish the flash backs. Unfortunately most of these places you speak of are long gone. Crossroads is still kicking, but went through a very slow time 5 years ago. I don't know about the Joker, that very well could still be there. Council Bluffs still has a way of hanging on to those kind of places (major flash back atmosphere there for sure).

Nah. Joker's gone. Burnt down . . . twice, then, turned into a church (talk about poetic justice )

I was aware that all my old haunts were gone. I was in Omaha between Christmas and the New Year. We try to make it up that direction once or twice a year. Some of the grandbabies are still there. I still have one stepson living there (Kevin). He also lives between Blair and Omaha. Maybe, one of these days I'll make it out in the SVX and NOT the family van.
