  1. Sorry, but I can't resist posting this authentic frontier gibberish from the Bismarck Tribune, North Dakota, 1883, "An Old Frontiersman Talks":

    "You say Ol Grant* was 'yar with the gang
    And the capital's one hoo-doo
    And the people cheered him like billy-be dang
    Why, pardner, it can't be true!"

    * US President Ulysses S. Grant
