One of my flight instructors, an OLD air force type, once said to me,.. pause,... deep drag from old pipe, exhale blue smoke into line shack,.. "Son, Never try to teach a pig to sing, It wastes your time and annoys the pig." Pat Paterson Al Gerharter So many pig stories, so little time. Sorry it's such a long time before posting this, but I've been away from home for a while. Two things spring to mind about pigs: "Dogs looks up to men, cats looks down on 'em, but pigs treats men as equals"; and "The Pig Got Up and Slowly Walked Away", 1933 song by Benjamin Hapgood Burt: One evening in October, when I was one-third sober, An' taking home a ‘load' with manly pride; My poor feet began to stutter, so I lay down in the gutter, And a pig came up an' lay down by my side; Then we sang ‘It's all fair weather when good fellows get together,' Till a lady passing by was heard to say: ‘You can tell a man who "boozes" by the company he chooses' And the pig got up and slowly walked away. Anybody know the tune? HNY to one and all (well, most of you) -- Peter Ying tong iddle-i po! |
