Some are born on third base and think they hit a triple. This guy hit his own stand-up triple -- H/S dropout and for a time lived in the projects. From the Times Picayune article - "After six months, Chicken on the Run was still losing money. In a last-ditch effort, Copeland chose a spicier Louisiana Cajun-style recipe and reopened the restaurant as Popeyes. In its third week of operation, Copeland's revived chicken restaurant broke the profit barrier." Interesting what a small change can make in one's destiny.

I ate at his Cheesecake Bistro yesterday for lunch. Boy was it yummy. I remember his boats and cars (the white ones with pink and teal on them) at the mardi gras parades and sitting in Destin out front of the walmart. oh wow!
