"You could be Otis's brother who shows up in town to open a Tiki bar, but it goes bankrupt in just a few weeks because Mayberry doesn't have a sufficient number of hipsters or craft-cocktail enthusiasts, then Aint Bee stirs up the local Temperance Society and they run you out of town on a rail"

Ha! true I would play to the audience and open a diner.
That's what I did for ten years and was born into it.
It was great mostly, and a lot like Mayberry.

We did see an Otis like drunk at a store in my wife's small home town of Franklinville NY but he did not have the charm and was just a sorry drunk with his sorry drunk friends.
Looked like a miner 49er or a civil war dude.

But at this age of 56 I would just get some pee on job and be happy.

Was always afraid that if we moved to a small town I would piss off the wrong people and we would be outcasts within a year.

I try to be a bit self aware.
