And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I remember, as a little kid in the late 60's early 70's, all these open pit BBQ places along the road in South Texas. Go into one and some old black guy standing there with a mop in one hand and a hook in the other, swabbing sauce and flipping meat. Ask him for 2 lbs of links and 3 lbs of brisket and, with no scales, cut you off the right amount and package it. Still remember the heat, smoke, and taste of that. Had some that was close since then but nothing as unique or savory.
But do they have a liquor license?
