After several years of investigation it has been determined that on March 21, 1980 Joe Rogo (a 21 year old Italian male) was happily dining at the  Ooh Ooh Bird Cafe, when Mr. Ewing was shot. Several friends provided an alibi for Mr. Rogo, and submitted (unaltered) polaroid pictures of Joe, as he dined on wings, and sang into the early morning hours. As not to offend the high snapshot  standards of Roadfood community (with all of the waving and blowing involved with the polaroid system),  these photos are not available, upon request. Sorry.

However, it is still too early to determine the exact whereabouts of  Mr. Rogo, the night the lights went out in Georgia! Mr. Rogo, I suggest you catch a few of the ol' episodes of Designing Women.

Thank you, Ray Don  Simpson.

 
As long as they were shooting at the "other" JR, I'm cool.
 
I think I heard about Men losing their ability to "Matriculate" from watching Designing Women.

    BTW, Thanks to everyone for their pic advice.
     
    The pic I posted of me and Ellen was much darker than shown.  I brightened it up on Photobucket and posted it with ease.

      Wow..We have some talented people on this site!  The chili looks great.  Grilled onions and melted cheese under that burger..Looks good to me! 

      Joe...Has "You know who" ever been here?"

      Happy New Year!

          So, Joe Rogo really exists.

          I met a handsome guy on the NJ Hot Dog Tour in Sept, who was claiming to be JOE ROGO.  THE Joe Rogo...
           
          So unless there is someone going around impersonating Joe Rogo, I believe I have met the "Rogo man" himself!!

           
          As long as we're not asking "Who Shot JR?"  I'll admit it was me. 
           


          Even his nametag says "JOE ROGO" !
          I think he was the real deal!

            I heard a story about the Pope looking out over the masses, and a Cardinal was over heard asking, if he knew any of the multitude by name.
            Pope answered, "not really, accept for Joe Roco. I met him at the Ooh Ooh Bird Cafe".

               Our pal, Joe Rogo  not Joe Roco !!!!

              Although, we could never forget our other good friend Joe Rockhead, from the Flintstones.

              But Joe Rogo has those eyes, that hint to a interesting story. A GREAT man, with ish eyes.

                        Ah! That explains it. We were down one chair and my wife had to sit on a bar stool. So you were the interloper.

                              I read this article and thought immediately of this thread, although at this point the thread is somewhat misleadingly named.  http://dinersjournal.blog...ow-to-shoot-ugly-food/
