I can see it now: Murder in the Earheart Suite, Death by DC-3, The Pilot
in Room 203...it would be a series, and each one would feature amateur
sleuths with curiously familiar descriptions resembling regulars from
R.A.P.

Whoa -- now THERE is a concept!

We could have...

- Larry Dighera playing the Rev. Falwell-type ("No beer!")

- Montblack playing the Falstaff character ("Did someone say beer?")

- Steven McNicoll playing the caustic Jack Nicholson character ("Why do I
doubt that what *you* call 'beer' is truly only hops and grains?")

- Martin Hotze as the sinister Austrian ("Beer, eh? Your papers,
please!")

- Jack Allison as the earnest, Jimmy Stewart character ("Well, shoot,
Marty,
will drinking this beer help me find my new airplane?")

- Mike Rappaport as the Mr. Howell type ("Lovey! Bring me my beer, will
you?")

- Matt Barrow as the angry James Dean type ("Beer? *&$# you! I want
Scotch!")

- Jim Burns as the patient Henry Fonda type ("Now now, fellows. It's only
beer we're talking about here!")

- Jim Weir as the Marlon Brando/Apocalypse Now type ("Have you ever drank
an
ice cold beer from that indentation in a beautiful woman's lower back...?
I
have...but that's another topic..."

- Cub Driver as the wise Alec Guinness/Obi Wan Kenobi character ("No, I've
not done that. But did I tell about the time we built our own brewery
back
before the war? Didn't have a radio in it, neither...")

- George Patterson as the cynical yet somehow optimistic Morgan Freeman
type
("Well, beer *was* better back then. But it always seems that the more we
drink it, the better it gets...")

- Bob Fry as the analytical Captain Nemo type ("Pishaw. Beer is best when
served at precisely 34.6 degrees -- and you have failed to serve it
thusly.
Electrify the hull!")

Wow, this could go on and on!

Who can add more suggestions? :-)

that
they be rare.
