It was lunchtime on Friday, and I was surfing various media websites, when I took a decided left-turn at the South Idaho Press in Burley, Idaho. Feeling somewhat morbid, I decided to check out the local obituaries, where I came across this interesting notice:
Frederico Bernal (Fred) III "Grand Pizzle,"
Frederico Bernal (Fred) III "Grand Pizzle," of Burley, funeral at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Hansen-Payne Mortuary, 321 E. Main St. in Burley; visitation from noon to 4:30 p.m. today at the mortuary.
I have no clue as to what a Grand Pizzle does, but surely Burley is suffering the loss this week.
While attempting to uncover the duties of a Grand Pizzle, the closest I came to an answer actually extended the mystery. I discovered that someone has created a LinkedIn profile for a “Lord Pizzle,” Grand Poopah at Prestige Worldwide, in the Toronto area. Perhaps a distant cousin?
I may have to investigate the Toronto lead in-person this summer, when I attend the IABC World Conference in Toronto.
In the meantime, any suggestions from you as to the value of a Grand Pizzle in society?
