Good one, Michael. I saw someone I knew busing tables there. After Mayo got busted I realized she was stone high that day and remembered that she had really struggled to kick. It was a kick in the gut when it dawned on me.
I have owned Don's Automotive across the street for 43 years. When I first met Pardo it was instantly obvious that he was a screaming asshole. Previously that location was a neighborhood laid-back beer joint called 'Big Ben's." During my first and last conversation with Pardo I mentioned that Big Ben and I were friends and always tried to help each other out. Pardo said "Well this isn't Big Ben's." making it very clear he wanted no part of a cooperative relationship. So I would see him directing people to park in my lot when theirs overflowed -- never offering so much as free tacos in exchange. I posted signs so I could have the cars impounded. I would says that the fate of dying of liver cancer while incarcerated is something I would never wish upon anybody -- well....with one exception.
