Comment by Uncle John on June 7, 2014 at 2:27am: Hey, Jim. That video you posted of the man in the yellow shirt with the great dance moves.. Was that Ben?

Comment by Uncle John on June 7, 2014 at 2:24am: I would like to meet Ben. Gitty service and speediness is fantastic. And prices are good. Oh, I love that tobacco tin strummer they are selling too. If they would only give out a hot dog with each order...

Comment by Thomas "Duck" Petry on June 2, 2014 at 2:53am: Non-existent people are real too. Sometimes our invisible friends are realer than the folks next door.

Comment by Ben "C. B. Gitty" Baker on June 2, 2014 at 12:46am: Rumors of my non-existence have been greatly exaggerated!

Comment by Jim burt on June 2, 2014 at 12:06am: A good face and handshake still count in some part of this old world ;)

Comment by Jim burt on June 1, 2014 at 3:39pm: It True Ron!... He for REAL....It blew my little pea brain mind.....You was blind Ron!...But now you can see again...Amen

Comment by Ron "Oily" Sprague on June 1, 2014 at 3:27pm: What??!! Ben Baker is REAL??!! He's not some shady multinational corporation out to screw the masses??!! How could I have been so blind...hmmm. There's a song in there. I shall ruminate further...
