2. Too Bad

There have been some disputed sightings of the Ivory-Billed, which is kind of like the Pileated. Was not familiar with this species.

7. I thought THAT belonged to...
The late, "great" John C. Holmes ("Johnny Wadd"). Who in one of his films was once greeted by a San Francisco Chintown bordello madam with "Come in, Big One"! :eyes:
