How easy and convenient to blame Connie…

the only thing the bartender remembers is 2 beers and a scotch….

Xaxos did it!

How can they be so sure Connie stayed in her room the rest of the night?

Who’s the girl the tec is sitting next to?

Good evening all!

Good morning margueritem, Lord Dogmore, wndwrthg, Montana Lady, Sydney, Joe, and the rest of the early birds!

‘Morning VB, ML, and mrbribery.

Actually, it was Rhoda that did it.

Wait…….we can’t call on Rhoda without Leaky………

Good mornin, VistaBill, Marg, Mr. Bribery, Lord Dogmore, Wndwrth, LuvH8, Llewellenbruce, and ALL……

Joe-Allen “Joe” Doty said, “VistaBill, early bird?”

For me it’s 1:15 am when the comics are up… East Coast.

What are you people doing up at such an outlandish hour? Anyway, it wasn’t Rhoda, it was Granpappy Amos.

I’d figure the bartender to remember my order, “One bourbon, one Scotch, one beer.”

A tidy suspect? Now he has to “labor” to find another.

God forbid they put an effort into finding the guilty party.

Howdy all ;-))

smokey bar , that —I also live in a state that figures if you don”t like second hand smoke, then work somewhere else or drink somewhere else

Why blame Rhoda? Because she’s BBBBAD to the BBBONE??

Put Rhoda in a room with The Boston Strangler, and she’ll come out!!!

Hey, Leaky! Glad to have you back! No one threatened to flag us while you were gone. :-)

Thanks Marg……:-))

Thats probably because I wasn’t here.

They can threaten till they’re blue in the face. It’s pretty easy to act big & tough behind a keyboard!!

I’ll see you good people tonight. :-)))

I think this case will be wrapped up in a few weeks (say around Mother’s Day) instead of a few months (say around Halloween).

VistaBill, Thanks for trhe greeting, but I’m really not an “early bird”, I’m just in an earlier Time Zone, coming on stream before the regulars “kick in” !

Seems Bribery has a good point. Did Connie go to sleep or did she … ??

Leaky ?? You back ?? Thought the only “laboring” you were doing was pulling the handle of a Slot Machine, B.O.Plenty style. ?

I am back Sydney.

Twice a month I spend a few days on the Gulf Coast to do some gambling. It’s only an hour from where I am.

And it was WELL worth it this time :-)))

If only Maeder and Slampyak could give lessons in plot development, Character and police work to Mr Locher

MisngNOLA, you beat me to my idea.

CSI: Warbucks.

Morning, Anniephans!

Well, at least Connie’s off the hook.
