Former KWBG compadre, Tony Crandell, BHS-59, had an idea for the Korner. He wrote, "why don't you run a Boone quiz like on Wednesday and then provide the answer on Saturday?"
The Kornerman says, "yah, we could do that" and Tony even gets us started with, "which one of the following, was the earliest to-go pizza places in Boone? Tic Toc, Manriquez, Belluci's, Van Gordon's, or Schwitts Drive'in." Schwitt's was a "sleeper" he conceded.
Tony has secured the services of Jerry Manriquez, BSH-57, to provide the proper history.
Anybody out there got thoughts on this?
O.K., we'll follow up in the Saturday edition.

Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me. I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way and many of the roads weren't paved.
