The rest of us in the world dilemma think tank, meeting here each morning as long as the Farmers Brothers coffee doesn’t run out, turned toward our friend.
We’re nothing if not a helpful bunch. We put our cups down … even Dud, who was still on his first cup.
Doc said, “Maybe we can help a bit, Steve. Tell us about it.”
