Margaret,
Before I answer that question, I need to know - do you *like* him?
'Cause if you do, I can't tell you what will happen, it's too awful. You
see, St. Pete's Grits is a major chain "up there".
Now, if you *don't* like him, there's a description of what will happen
in a work by a guy named Dante.
