Hey Whitman...a slight overslight on your part,
you forgot to list Milo Washington and Robert E Lee in your list of southern greats.
One of them said...
 May Good Fortune knock  at your door.
While you are at the laundromat.

I know one of them said it, I just can't remember which.

And Consuelo, Tom Robbins wrote a book about the romance of the tropics and where do you find yourself today.

One (or maybe two) can't help but wonder what might happen if Tom Robbins wrote a book about the romance of the moon?

NEVER TRUST A GOVERNMENT THAT DOESN'T TRUST ITS OWN PEOPLE WITH GUNS

Good thing we don't get into politics on this board or I'd point out that as our troops went into Iraq they found gun possession to be ubiquitous.

Dried peas and beans, being rather on the dull side, much like dull people respond readily to the right contacts. Do not scorn them...

Nietzsche's aphorisms are the most insightful and witty, in my opinion.
