  DOLLAR BILLS ON THE WALL: "BUCK SNORTS"
  

  Last week Ron Ambler submitted an item about a Southern
  Maryland restaurant called The Roost where the walls are
  decorated with "buck snorts". While searching for the
  restaurant's web site, I came across a couple items from a
  local paper called St. Mary's Today which reported on a
  health scare related to the restaurant.
  

  This week Ron adds: "Cheap shot! St. Mary's Today used
  to be a weekly rag that went out of business years ago for
  inability to pay its bills. It is now a one-man Internet operation
  that no one down here in Southern Maryland takes seriously.
  The hepatitis scare was over five years ago, and as far as I
  know nothing much ever came of it -- certainly no judgments.
  There was a server with hepatitis who did work at all three
  of the restaurants (not a very good worker one might judge
  from three places of employment in such a short time). I still
  routinely enjoy the food and the atmosphere of the Roost,
  particularly the huge array of Naval aviation memorabilia,
  including the Bucksnort wallpaper."
  

  [Old news lives on forever on the Internet. My apologies
  to Ron and the restaurant. Keep The Roost on your radar
  for a numismatic vacation side-trip someday. -Editor]
