I might mention that the Warner Brothers are relatives.  They offered
both my grandfather, as well as most other people in town, a full
partnership for $50.  My grandfather told them that nobody would pay a
nickel just to see a shadow on a wall.  I must have the genetic
predisposition to bad business sense, since my father told his golfing
partner that he couldn't make a profit selling roast beef sandwiches.
He did and Arby's became quite profitable.
