I am tired of cursing the Bishop, (Said Crazy Jane)
Nine books or nine hats
Would not make him a man.
I have found something worse
To meditate on.
A King had some beautiful cousins.
But where are they gone?
Battered to death in a cellar,
And he stuck to his throne.
Last night I lay on the mountain. (Said Crazy Jane)
There in a two-horsed carriage
That on two wheels ran
Great-bladdered Elmer sat.
Her violent man Cuchulain sat at her side; Thereupon’
Propped upon my two knees, I kissed a stone
I lay stretched out in the dirt
And I cried tears down.
Man and manatee, woman and wombat, landed in gentry, christened in combat, there’s a crack in the esprit d’armor.
Millie made muffins for the multitude but jesus got all the credit. Credit where credit is due, by gum.
Pepe popped in to the peep-o-rama but it turned out he was in his cups and the pope got the coats of the many coloureds and those of the rug riders. He pulled the rugs out from under them. That’s the way things go during the decline of the umpire.
Forgive me for poisoning your well but it was all in the spirit of jest.
As, jest you wait until I get ahold of you. Then we’ll see who’s the cock of the robin and who’s a ward of the state. You got to have balls to become a bowler. You got to have the shits to become a plumber. You got to have your head examined to become a shrink

Listed on the shoreside roster as Helena Hornblower, Marcy Tigner blew the departure of the fleet. Her latest album, “Trombone,” is classified under harp, pipe, and organ, and within the sub-genres thereof.
He claimed to be a cut above the norm but was accused of hitting below the belt. They sweared it on a stack of bibles. It was in all the newspapers, save for the ones he owned.
When he died, his last will and testament provided a handsome bequest to the policemen’s widows’ fund if they could persuade their late husbands to wipe his hard drives, save for the copies in the cloud.
The last thing I heard that poor boy say, “Give me a cool drink of water before I die.”
I washed the news tonight to see who’s got that oscar — I heard she’s worth a king’s ransom on the blacks’ market. In the field kitchen the recipient, disabusing herself with a cucumber, tried everything from osmosis to reverse hypnosis.
In his 1684 account The History of the Buccaneers of America, Alexandre Exquemelin notes François l’Olonnais’s place of birth as les Sables-d’Olonne.
L’Olonnais first arrived in the Caribbean as an indentured servant during the 1650s. By 1660 his servitude was complete. He began to wander various islands before arriving in Saint-Domingue – in what is now Haiti – and becoming a buccaneer. He preyed upon shipping from the Spanish West Indies and Spanish Main.
A year or two (dates regarding l’Olonnais are uncertain) into his piratical career, l’Olonnais was shipwrecked near Campeche in Mexico. A party of Spanish soldiers attacked l’Olonnais and his crew, killing almost the entire party. L’Olonnais himself survived by covering himself in the blood of others and hiding amongst the dead.
After the Spanish departed, l’Olonnais with the assistance of some slaves escaped and made his way to the island of Tortuga. A short time later he and his crew held a town hostage, demanding a ransom from its Spanish rulers. The governor of Havana[who?] sent a ship to kill l’Olonnais’ party. l’Olonnais captured and beheaded the entire raiding crew save one, whom he spared so that a message could be delivered to Havana: “I shall never henceforward give quarter to any Spaniard whatsoever.”
Genghis Khan or Hopalong Cassidy ?
Genghis for centuries has had a fearsome reputation because of his large-scale slaughter of conquered populations. Numerically not approaching modern levels, but proportionally near extinction for the clandestine cohort .
Hopalong, on the other hand, had a wooden leg. Rude and rough in his youth, he grew up to become a clean-cut, sarsaparilla-drinking man of many attributes. He was the first man to legally marry his horse, in a barbershop in Omaha. Always a square shooter who would give a cocksucker an even break, he shot the chip off Roy Rogers’s shoulder, and Dale couldn’t suppress the odd suppository.
