But seriously friends, I was sorely disappointed with the marketability of my artillery skills after I got out. I wanted to try out for the job of playing 2nd 105 with the Philharmonic and doing the 1812 Overture. Unfortunately they cancelled that production for the year cause of liabilities from the previous performance. Something about wiping out the first 10 rows of paying customers or something. So next I went down to the Ding Ding Brothers, Barnfarb and Bailout Circus, and applied for the job as the "Human Cannonball". Again I was disappointed, turned out I wasn't the right caliber man for the job. Sigh. You must remember this A kiss is still a kiss A sigh is just a sigh The fundamental thing apply As time goes by .... jim b puts on his trench coat, and lights up a camel ...... ambles towards the door and says, "Good night Chesty ... wherever you are." jim b exits stage right. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/10/hard_to_believe.html#comment-51993 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2006/10/hard_to_believe.html#comment-51993 Wed, 25 Oct 2006 17:31:52 -0600 I need one of them things in my front yard.
