- Hmmm...they'll say he did his best. They'll say he took a long time to discover that his best was pretty good...but in all things, a decent sort. A lawyer? Too thoughtful for an average lawyer, which he is not. Average, that is. Extraordinarily talented, resourceful and hard-working. Confronted with his past, can he forge a future? What will it hold? Time will tell as will his efforts to try to make the world a better place, but in the meantime, don't make the Corned Beef too lean. Life is lived in the fat. Tastes better, too. Besides which, I really always wanted to own a deli. This is my hommage to a different life in a different place at a very different time.
