(Writer's note: Quite a bit of thought went into these. They are all my children, so to speak.
I have research notes for perhaps 20-30 more...they are jelling. Not to "talk down to my readers, but all may not be movie fans; The "stinkin' steer manure" is a parody of the Mexican
bandit in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre"---a Humphrey Bogart movie wherein the bandit
says to Bogie: "Badges, badges, I don't need no stinkin' badges!"
To peruse the entire list, click on "older posts" at bottom, twice.
Do I have a favorite? Hard to say, maybe "THE OVEN" and the hymn posts.

    How soon people forget
    The war
    And that
    If Marines had failed
    To raise
    The flag
    On Mount Suribachi,
    America
    And Japan
    Would have another
    Story to Tell.
