Burke took it real badly when his giant mastiff got killed. He tries to deal in “Only Child.”
-
It was actually a pretty unimportant battle. At Balaclava, of course. The Russians charged the Brits, the the Brits charged the Russians, and then the Light Brigade thought it could take on all of the Russian infantry, artillery, and cavalry put together. Amazing the stupid things people write poems about. Blame Lord Raglan.
-
You read awfully good books for a Republican.
Hugo Pinero invented a means of predicting the precise date of death for anyone. He comes up in a few of Heinlein’s stories and novels. Even Lazarus Long tried the service himself, but ended up getting a refund when Pinero did not deliver the goods. -
She organized the women of Athens to withhold sex until their husbands agreed to end the war with Sparta.
-
It’s from Prince Caspian. Or Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Damn.
-
He wrote a poem. Death Be Not Proud.
DEATH be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadfull, for, thou art not so,
For, those, whom thou think’st, thou dost overthrow,
Die not, poore death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
Gunther wrote the memoir.

24 The poet is probably André Chénier who inspired the opera Andrea Chénier by Umberto Giordano.
- Thanks a lot for reminding me! When I was a kid I used to think this song was so innocent. I heard it again on my songs of the 70s cd and was shocked to find out that Maureen says she wants my key, but what she’s really interested in is my boner. Don’t even get me started on “Afternoon Delight.” Pure smut.
I’m so upset about this I can’t continue.
- President Juvenal Habyarimana (try saying that name five times fast) of Rwanda realized his country was too poor to fund a real army in 1993, so he and his politicial cronies initiated a civilian self-defense corps. They decided AK-47s and the like were also too expensive, so they imported machetes–enough to arm one-third of the Hutu adult male population, I have heard. These imported weapons were to be the ones with which the Hutus hacked hundreds of thousands of Tutsis to death.
I had a good friend who travelled frequently to post-genocidal Rwanda for Oxfam, to help rebuild water supplies. “You do not want to know what happened there,” he told me.
I believe the line in 8. is taken from We Wish To Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed With Our Families, the book that was very loosely adapted into Hotel Rwanda.
Maeglin=19
I’ll leave it to Maureen to clarify what she wants from you, but the singer in question is Melanie.
I’m just sayin’, is all.
I make it 91. You shake hands with everyone else, 13 handshakes. So does everyone else. 13x14. But each handshake involves two people, so we can halve one of those factors, 14x6.5 is 91.
In’it?
- Vinnie quit working for Joe Broz many books back, (after pastime)works for Gino Fish, more or less, off and on, but has been available to help out since Walking Shadow, When Vinnie outdraws Spenser and Hawk to nail the corrupt police cheif DeSpain in Walking Shadow. So, Vinnie’s been a Good Wise-Guy since 1994.
