Remember why they had stocks and shackles and rotten produce, in the
town square. I think they should bring them back especially for
treasonous and predatory and corrupt politicians, lobbyists and Wall
Street vultures. Take bids on getting to throw garbage at them. Ought to

Everyone seems to have turned him down...in the good old days, he could
have bought himself a "colonelship" with the Army. Now that is a
make-work job if ever there was one, eh? Obviously, no skills are required.

At least those people were really what they said they were, and not
liars making up stories like Yale degrees, Dr. Dr. wives, father's
trans-Atlantic trip in a runabout with a fireboat welcome in NYC,
going to VietNam as a citizen and IDing bodies, etc., huh?

I think Harry is thinking of the Napoleonic era when it comes to buying
rank. Of course, not having anything to do with the military would tend to
screw up one's knowledge of same.
