May your Christmas be merry, your New Year be happy, and your Tucker be Sophie.

Lolabelle Pancake:

That was Sophie Tucker's card to Courtney in 1963. There's a message inside, but it's too salacious to reveal it here. We try to keep the poutin' shanty safe for the whole family. And by "family-safe," we don't mean the Bodenheims.

The role of Hearty White was played by Ray Milland.

See? And I was sure the role of Ray Milland was played by Hearty White.

Any chance the Codge has a rare 78 of Leslie West doing "Mississippi Queen"!

Most times, when people have the option of doing things, they probably shouldn't. So good for Gus!

HyperDose:

Well...Curmudgeon Kush is his sweet citrus-y smelling hybrid. Great for mornings on the balcony yelling at children on their way to school. Now if you fancy something a wink more potent, he really recommends Gaffer Glue. This indica strain is the Codger's signature special. The musk-forward notes prepare you for a wave of euphoria that takes you by the hand, and leads you to the most pleasant slumber. Members Only!!!
