“NEVER EAT AT A PLACE CALLED MOM’S…” Kids, you have probably heard the advice, “Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom’s. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own.” It probably goes back a long way, but Nelson Algren (in A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE) is usually given credit for it .
