I believe I will have one of these India coffee drinks they sound like they would top off a meal nicely.

I was referring to Leonard being a good tipper. I remember reading a article and the person who was interviewing Leonard told about how he had gotten his coat mixed up with another man's coat at the Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, and all his money was in that coat. Leonard asked him "Does that mean you are broke?" and gave this fellow 200 franc. Off course I just assume he would also be a good tipper.

Phil Spector may be a big tipper too, however you may have dodge afew bullets.

:lol: ~ That's funny, Linda.....also possibly true :wink: . A few of those big tippers do feel their tips "earn" them certain rights beyond the excellent serving of the meal :shock: .

Or few little picks with the knife and fork. I heard about Spector beeing generous with a knife also.

Hum... Does strar trek uniform have pockets? I don't remember to have never seen any pocket on it. Well the poor stay poor, then. And that's it.

I read where Spector tipped $500 on the night of the tragedy. Somehow I can't picture LC being that extravagant.

Hi Songster,

I just know that Leonard would be a very generous tipper! :) All indications are that he is ever the gentleman. 8)

My guess is that Leonard is generous within his means, and in context with the situation; but not flamboyant like Spector, who probably has another agenda hidden beneath that, most likely image-oriented.
