He instantly recognized the mug on the card (albeit, a younger version!) and Mr. Downs was in effect "Down for the Count!"

This could have happened.....?!?!?!? In my dreams!

Peace, Mike
I have no proof it DIDN'T happen! ....also I can't PROVE this painting I have of dogs playing poker wasn't painted by Rembrandt
