The Park Lane has been reopened for quite a while now, albiet without Peter Gust.

You know, Delaware, I knew that!
I've been there a couple of times, and the food is good!
I guess I had in mind the old Gates house. Big and white.

If you mean Scharf's (as in Margaret Scharf's) off Genessee by Bailey, yes it is.

But don't trust their ad or the sign in the window: the kitchen isn't open as late as they say.

But the oompahpah grub is still great.

Hey Mouse, I thought of you when I saw this.

I was over on one of my financial message boards (the ones where we filthy-rich capitalists plot new ways to screw the workingman) when one of them posted the following:

"I've made a lot of money in the market. I spent most of it on wild women, fast horses and hard liquor.

The rest I just wasted."

Isn't the Riverview in Lewiston formally called the Riverside Inn owned by the Turgon family?

People thought senior meant old. Stevenco had an idea because we have a few posters who like toget into name calling. His idea was a gold member. Everyone is a gold member.

to biker: you got lumped into being part of a cliche.

Old! I like being old.

I'm looking forward to being old like George Burns.

When I can pinch gorgeous young girls and everybody thinks I'm cute.

(Except my missus; she says that time will never come.)

I think they've reopened in the suburbs. I'll look into it. I liked them, too.

Riverside Inn, in Lewiston, is no longer Turgeon owned.

Anyone remember toasted bowties at Your Host?
