The Mann

Comments:
We're honored to have won the "chef tell award" as a tag-team for our Mac&Cheese/Salmonloaf, but if you think THAT was good, just wait... You ain't seen nothin' yet!
The last award we won as a "team" was in 1981 when we won a dance
competition at the once infamous, now up-in-flames-long-gone Golden Lion, (and we have the trophy to prove it!)
 
I believe the Artist currently known as the Mann's photographer only has one "n". However, no relation to a former Mayor. But I would like to start a rumor about the photographer being related to a former Governor despite that Governor's Mud-Duckness.
 
HBK,
Sorry about the spelling error. Someone threw a 2.5 lb. weight at my hand and it alwayss wantss to hitt extraa letterss.
 
Was he a disheveled older guy with comb-over. Fair warning the Mann ought take notice and stay out of the way of the old crazy dudes. I hear the guy in question thinks R&R and R&B are the devils music - that he once decapitated a student with an oscillating fan in his coaching changing the the old transiter station in the high school gym from Lawrence Belch (ah I mean Welk) to Jimi Hendrix - next thing you know its gonna be "where you going with that gun in your hand...''

Besides what if that 2.5 had bounced up and hit me in the shin or something.
 
The Family approves of the updates... Very Nice - Now Kiss the Ring.
