I was checkin' my email and found that I had lost another good friend.
"Obituary Notice: Alvie F. "Buzz Saw" Jones"

He was quite the character and semi-famous for his antics while directing traffic in the Houston/Galleria area. He was the nicest guy around.

Then he saluted the Command in Chief as the Secret Service drove the entourage through to the President's next destination. At times the Secret Service was heard on his communication channel to say, "Buzz is at the intersection; don't worry about it." At times they didn't even send a solo motorcycle officer for traffic purposes.

Never use the word 'anally' in a Pud thread. It gets him all riled up.
