re: Vernon Roger

Hey Lucky, I just found my copy of his cookbook and it says in the intro "I hope they'll elicit the same response they did for me - 'TONNAIRE, MAIS CAS C'EST BONNE, OUI!!!'"
I speak France French, and can tell you (a) 'cas' should be spelled as ca, and 'bonne' as bon, and (b) it means something like 'thunder, but that is good, yes.'

So he killed himself? Wow. What exactly happened? I remember hearing about his DWIs when I was little but the other stuff... ????
