More like Phyllis George - he ditched her in 1998 in favour of a third wife.

Our current boob is not too bright or politically astute - but, I am pretty
sure he's honest.

AHEM ...

Even in roadhouses where there is screening between the audience and the stage
to keep thrown glassware (bot not the contents) from hitting the performers I
never experienced sawdust or peanut shells on the floor. Other debris, drunks,
and the occasional bleeding loser of a fisticuff demonstration - sure. And when
the bouncers dragged him out there was usually a relatively clean trail leading
to the door. But, I haven't been in one of those places in donkey's years -
preferring more sedate surroundings.

      Title: Rocky Roadhouse Cake
 Categories: Desserts, Cakes, Dairy, Chocolate, Nuts
      Yield: 12 servings

      8 lg Eggs
    1/4 c  Oil
  1 3/4 c  Dairy sour cream
      8 oz Pkg butterscotch pudding mix
 21 1/2 oz Box Devil's Food cake mix
      1 c  Walnuts; chopped
  5 1/2 oz (1/2 bag) miniature
           - marshmallows
      8 oz Miniature chocolate chips
      8 oz Miniature butterscotch chips
 
  Break eggs into a large bowl and mix in the oil, sour
  cream, and butterscotch pudding mix. Add cake mix. Stir,
  but do not over-mix. Stir just long enough for the mix to
  be absorbed but not completely smooth. This will be a
  heavy mix. Add the rest of the ingredients. Spoon into a
  greased and floured cake pan.

  Bake at 350øF/175øC for about 3/4 hour.
