Humpday Meanderings
It's Wednesday, and once we hit noon, it'll be downhill to the weekend. Johnny dug around the house and found some old menus from 1943 around Green Bay. What was on menus back in the day? How about postum? We discovered that postum was a grain-based, caffeine-free drink used as a coffee substitute. How about a lettuce and mayo sandwich? Cheese sandwiches were only 10 cents! Maino also tells a story about finding one of his books at a bookstore yesterday, but a significant portion was missing. There was part of another book in its place! Weird! We get a surprise call from Michael Friedman from Simple Life Hospitality to talk a bit more about renting out homes for the NFL Draft. We also discuss Jim's linen fetish.
