[Rhodes22-list] Hoist one - Paul's Polticial, Religious and Health related post... Jerry putting the clue at the beinging takes all the fund out of hiding it

Ed,

You're bringing back found memories of my time in Alameda and Quinn's
Lighthouse Pub, right next to my marina.  Nothing like going in for a bowl
of Clam Chowder, half a loaf of fresh sourdough bread with butter and a
couple of Drake Amber Ales.  An excellent way to finish off the day.
