Funny thing is the reviews indicated that the Deadly Sins
series were worthier in some way than the McNally series,
and one of each I think were available for free. If I want
to read more of his stuff I'll have to do something like
join Open Library.

There is a lot of public domain stuff worth reading, but
if I could get a better idea of this guy for free, I might 
look for more instead of relying on the classics. I'm not 
so far sure I approve of his attitudes enough to actually 
pay money to his heirs, though. I couldn't track down the 
free McNally book this time around, though it will probably 
pop up again. I think it was a Chinese site, so suspicious 
anyway and maybe worth not downloading from.

      Title: Mexican Chalupa

To me a chalupa is something like a quesadilla or maybe a 
cheese tostada possibly with beans. I never thought of it as 
a chililke meat stew. Maybe the guy really is a Boston butt.
