This portrait of George is by beloved Gabriolan, Lesley Harris.

On a hot afternoon at Folklife Village Mall, we share beers out back with "Gabriola George", B.S.ing and solving problems. The illustration on the label of Steamworks' Pilsner tall-cans starts us off. There are always some stories and great insights with George. Cheers!

Love this one, brother. I was hoping you'd touch on the time he spent in Las Vegas counting cards. He won a ton of cash, then the pit bosses got wise to his ways and kicked him out! The guy is a gem.

I know! And why and how did I blank out and not ask the inside story of Rusty the Rooster's sack, if Jerome was a egomaniac, if Finnegan talked your ear off when the cameras stopped rolling . . . the next visit with George.
