Bonnet Chronicles
Zappa
Uncle Remus --Frank Zappa
Wo, are we movin' too slow?
Have you seen us,
Uncle Remus . . .
We look pretty sharp in these clothes (yes, we do)
Unless we get sprayed with a hose
It ain't bad in the day
If they squirt it your way
'Cept in the winter, when it's froze
An' it's hard if it hits
On yer nose
On yer nose
Just keep yer nose
To the grindstone, they say
Will that redeem us,
Uncle Remus . . .
I can't wait till my Fro is full-grown
I'll just throw 'way my Doo-Rag at home
I'll take a drive to BEVERLY HILLS
Just before dawn
An' knock the little jockeys
Off the rich people's lawn
An' before they get up
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
Before they get up
I'll be knocking the jockeys off the lawn
Down in the dew

From the front page of the Chicago Tribune yesterday:
So, there is actually a President Bartlet, and they call her Chancellor Merkel.
Angela Merkel has an undergrad in Physics & Physical Chemistry (1978 - Leipzig U), and a doctorate in Quantum Chemistry (1986 - German Academy of Science, Berlin).
Donald Trump can't even spell PhD.

Keep This In Mind
(Paraphrasing)
"You don't have to tell me about your values. Just show me your budget and I'll know exactly what your values are."
"You don't have to tell me about your values. Just show me your budget and I'll know exactly what your values are."
