[78-L] Hey, Mabel

[David Lennick]

We used to finish at midnight at CKFM and CFRB and go across to Fran's for a 
banquet burger and a Black Label. I've seen the stuff listed at The Beer Store, 
but haven't tasted it in decades. And wouldn't a Dow go good now? (Only Canucks 
of a certain age and tolerance for bad grammar will remember that one. Same 
vintage as Winston Tastes Good Like A Cigarette Should.)
