I think I just stumbled upon the name of my new restaurant. There are so many restaurants with cutesy names like The Winking Lizard and Electric Cheetah, etc. Having a little place where 50 or so people at a time could come and eat and chat is an endeavor of mine. So now we have a clever and friendly name The Mellon Collie, let's examine some of the menu, shall we?

these are just some highlights... What do you think?
Giving you a loan - and it would only be a "loan" for tax purposes, not because I would want it paid back - to open your restaurant is one of my favorite bits of "what if I won the lottery" fantasizing. I still think you should do it sooner rather than later. God knows none of us is getting any younger.
