It's been a while since I read a Sanford novel @sbb122 and what you're describing above is not registering with me.
Thanks, I do remember it was a subplot in the book and not the main plot which makes it even harder to find.
Hell I may have even dreamt it or it’s an entirely different author. lol

Yes they are very good. There are tons of them. I haven’t read any since around 2016. Not sure how the new ones are.

Yep, you are correct. Lucas was a former college hockey player in his younger days.

Why I asked and I know it is a longshot but I have scoured Google, Reddit and other places and I can’t find the answer to this question.

There was a book and I’m almost positive it was a Sanford novel featuring Virgil Flowers where there was an abusive husband who went missing in his prized car.

It was always speculated the wife killed him but she denied having anything to do with his disappearance. She kept insisting he just finally ran off because he was tired of living with her.

She had either a flower bed or a garden that she loved and was always working in it. At the end of the novel Virgil (the detective) who had taken a liking to her, got her to admit that her husband was buried in the car under her garden all of those years.

For the life of me I cannot think of the name of this book, and I really don’t want to page through the 25 or so that I have to find out what it is.
Did you ever read Michael Connelly? There was a Lincoln Lawyer book kind of similar

I have read tons of his books. Christ, if it was a Connelly book I’m going to feel like a fool searching Sanford novels.

I think the Swedish Bikini Team Old Milwaukee commercials were better but whatever floats your boat.
You don't think they objectify women?

I was 11 when those commercials started airing so looking back on it my final answer is not really.

The production quality of those commercials was Emmy worthy. And the scenery was good too.

I don't get the big deal about coed bathrooms. I can take a leak next to anyone. Doesn’t matter who is next to me, male or female, I'm going to look in the gap in the stall door either way.

You have a shrine in the HR department at work, right?

I prefer Spuds Mackenzie. A dog who drunken spring break college kids presumably load up with Bud Light and call him the party animal. Pretty cool wholesome fun.

I'm a job creator.
We don't have coed bathrooms in my office (or house) yet.
Gail, a 70 year old brassy dame in marketing who everyone is wondering when she will retire, is leading the charge on that remodeling project. I'm not sure her argument of "At my age I've pretty much seen everything anyone's got anyway" is really a strong one.
But she is right, if we combine the two bathrooms it would create a nice space for an indoor koi pond.

30 years later it still bugs me that in When Harry Met Sally that a good looking man like Harry would settle for a woman who looks like Sally

Wait a sec, are you talking about Meg Ryan before she ruined her good looks with all that plastic surgery?!?
