Poker in the front,
Liquor in the rear,
Strainer in the kitchen,
And Porter in the Watergate.

Hey - graventy - I already apologized. I did a search for Goss before posting but goofed it up somehow. I hate doing boneheaded shit like this. Wish I could delete this thread. The other one's much better.

Peter Graves was excellent in Airplane. Sad to see him fall from grace.

Porter Goss is an anagram of "To Progress!" Which I believe is the toast Patrick Kennedy made immediately before shotgunning his 13th Guinness.
Now you know.
