Thanks for the feed-back. Max was a man of taste- if he preferred high grade Parkers-- as did the late George Patton--
I very much liked the story about the 50 cent tip at the cafe-- in some way, makes me think about Gary Cooper and Ernest Hemingway travelling together in Idaho- Hem driving, stopped for gas at some smallish hamlet-- asked the attendant if he'd accept a check (out-of-area bank) and he said that he wanted cash for the fill-up.
Cooper, who often paid even small purchases by personal check, then asked the man if he's accept his personal check-- "Yes, sure, Mr. Cooper" was the reply-- Cooper often did this, knowing that the folks who took his check kept it uncashed, saving it for his autograph-- RWTF
