    Caterers

    75% corporate gigs, have a number of construction companies that use us for safety meetings. Try to stay away from weddings way too many calls with plan changes. Private parties make up the balance.

    Cooking with wood

    The Downfall of Democracy

    Sounds good but what makes anyone think politicians would vote to eliminate their positions? What makes anyone think that those that manipulate want it to change and have everyone vote on everything?
