Thank You Friends

"Thank you, friends
Wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you
I'm so grateful for all the things you helped me do"

"Thank You Friends"

I'd like to thank a few friends for their support during my recent travails with the Pizzacar:

Miss Lake Calhoun
MLC not only lent me her car while she was on vacation and drove my sorry ass up to Forest Lake to pick up the new rattletrap when she returned, but she also gave me a buck when I came up one dollar short during the purchase.

Miss Rock
A long-time friend and regular pizza customer, Miss Rock gave me a whopping $10 tip when she heard of my car problems. She only asked that I "speak highly of her."
I cannot speak highly enough.

Amy of MPLS
I received an email from CP headquarters saying I had an envelope waiting for me. I went down to CP HQ, opened the envelope to discover some cash and a nice note:

"Hoping I'm amongst many other fans, along with the paypal guy, that don't want ou to go! Here's for your car- or simply a tribute long overdue. Thanks for keepin' our eyes open to all the shit that really goes on day to day on the streets of our city.
Thanks for keepin' it real.
-Amy
MPLS

That was pretty damn sweet.
Upon opening the envelope and discovering the money it contained, I showed it to Paul Demko. Demko immediately suggested we spend it on beer at Cuzzy's.
I resisted Demko's suggestion, put the money towards the car and taped the note to my computer.
Thanks Amy.

Also, thanks to all the letters writers, book binders, Bible belters, money changers, spoon benders and my pizza-loving regulars.

-The Pizzaman
