What happened to Roger Rabbit?

I forgot to mention a few weeks ago, when my friends Ryan and Laeh were in town we decided to try a Japanese restaurant on the westside called Furaibo. The actual location of said restaurant is in Little Osaka, which Jen and I have frequented often when she contracts Boba fever, or we want to blow some cash at Giant Robot. But we always steered clear of Furaibo as it was adjacent to a karaoke bar, which happens to be Jen and my greatest fear. Anyway, sorry, I forgot this isn't a restaurant review...just let me say that the food at Furaibo was excellent and plentiful...I mean it just kept coming, like thirteen or fourteen dishes. But as we were wrapping up our meal Laeh motioned behind me, indicating that she thought that Al Franken might be sitting at the table across from her. I did the casual arm stretch but really trying to look behind me maneuver but couldn't get a good view. Finally as we left I took a good, long look and it was none other than the voice of Roger Rabbit, this guy, and I must say he wasn't looking too good. Not that he was looking old or unhealthy, not at all. He just had, how can I put this delicately, I mean because he was a childhood hero of mine, um...a hump...on his back. Yes, its true, he possessed a severe hunchback. I have nothing against hunchbacks it was just unexpected, but I'm sure he's a great guy. Although he was talking to some girl that looked to be thirty years his junior. Hopefully it was his daughter...otherwise YIKES!
