Actually, not quite -- you're right that the NOLA restaurant wasn't named after the fighter, but I am fairly certain he was a police reporter, not a sports announcer.

Yes, I'll take some Lamb-Oxtail stew from Son's Barbershop/Restaurant for .15 cents. Can you get a haircut and eat your stew at the same time?

 

[steeley]

Back in day shave and haircut .30 cents and three large porkchops .30 cents
you were living good on about a buck a day.

they put the bowl on your head first then after the haircut they fill it with stew.

I'm gonna get Bob Kramer to make me one of them gigantor fish cleaver thingies. I don't think it would be expensive at all.
I'll do a passaround with it too.

For what it is worth, in Spain they make them in both chopper and slicer versions that are hard to tell apart in a photo. Also several different sizes starting with big and ending in HUGE. Along with the fish, I saw them cutting up poultry, lambs, goats, rabbits, pork and some beef with the same knives.

I've been to that store. There are more cutlery shops in Albacete than any other city I've ever been in. The problem is how to get them home after you buy them. You can't board a train with knives in your luggage. I ended up Fed-Exing but even that involved a lot of paper work.
