    Hey fin, sorry to here about Pauli.
    I wish I could remember who started the fishing club. Mark and Hans introduced me into the club. At that time it was the president(which cant remember his name either) just before Joe M. became president. I know there was Tony M., Stanley as some of founding members I believe, but I could be wrong. Anyway, haven't spoke with those guys in 20 years. A few years ago or so I stopped at Julians B/T at A. Highlands and found Dolly from the pier shop working there. Told me sad news that Hans was very sick and past away some years ago.

    Changed the chocolate? don't tell me it was like when coke changed their formula. Why don't these companies ask the consumer before they do this stuff? Putting less sugar in it now?

    Bump for a good thread. The wife and I were down there this weekend and it is certainly changed. I would like to see some of the old-time stores reinvented and there again. I hope someday that can happen for nostalgia's sake.
