    ...and behold: three wise men came...bearing gifts: not gold, frankincense or myrrh, but delicious Apple Fritters.

    John and Frank proffer a Fritter to Jeff, asserting its superiority to his Schnucks brand.

    Meanwhile, Charlie has cornered one of the Fritter boxes and is busily helping himself to a treat.
  • Tony.jpg
    Tony demonstrates his uncanny ability to avoid notice, as he sidles behind Frank: Tony has in his (unseen)right hand another box of Fritters AND one of Charlie's Asian lagers!.

    Mission successfully accomplished (and the Asian beer quietly quaffed already) Tony takes a seat next to Marty—notice he doesn't offer Marty a fritter'.

    None of this is lost on Marty, as evinced by his rather resigned look.

    Terry had to miss this Lunch due to a Dr. appt, so Art gets to be the lucky guy who takes the Photographer's Pose with Val..
