Friendship ~ None of that Sissy Stuff Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship. You will see no cute little smiley faces on this ~Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship. 1. When you are sad ~ I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad. 2. When you are blue ~ I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile ~ I will know you are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in. 4. When you are scared…

The courtroom reporters who saw Harry Hershfield at the Alger Hiss trial told of the Vera Stretz murder trial which was covered by Hershfield. Miss Stretz had shot her Teuton lover, whose body showed five bullet wounds. She was defended by Samuel Leibowitz and acquitted . . . Her plea was self-defense. And when, during a recess, the presiding judge, Cornelius Collins, asked the reporters: “How could a woman shoot five times, and then say it’s self-defense?†. . . “Maybe,†suggested Hershfield, she was hard of hearing.†* * * *

Little Sophia was heartbroken when her pet canary died, and to pacify her, father gave her an empty cigar box, and, with much ceremony, assisted in burying the box in the garden. Daddy, whispered Sophia after the funeral was over, will my dear little birdie go to heaven? I expect so, replied the father, why? I was only thinking, murmured the youngster, how cross St. Peter will be when he opens the box and finds it isn’t cigars after all. * * * *

She was pretty and ambitious and had studied the matrimonial problem to a nicety. “Yes. I suppose, I shall wed eventually.†She said, “but the only kind of masculine nuisance that will suit me must be tall and dark, with classical features. He must be brave, yet gentle. He must be strong—a lion among men, but a knight among women. That evening a bow-legged, lath-framed chinless youth, wearing flannel baggies and smoking a cigarette that smelt worse than a burning boot, rattled on the back door and the girl knocked four tumblers and a cut glass dish off the sideboard in her haste to let him in. * * * * snowyday

This is the season of weather stories. Which brings to mind the mighty winds which range the great open spaces of Oklahoma. Out there the wind blows so hard that the boys often use it to ride to town on. They stand out in the road and hold up their big hats like sails, and the next thing they know the breeze has set them down in front of the courthouse. Sometimes it turns wells inside out and spills water over seventeen counties. One day a visitor noticed a log-chain hanging from a limb near a lonely cabin. He asked the settler what purpose it serves. “Well, stranger,†the man replied, “when I wake up in the morning I peek through a crack…

The scene was the interior of a saloon in the Far West, and round the table were gathered as tough a gang as could be found in the whole of California. The game was fast and furious, the stakes were high. Suddenly the dealer flung his cards on the table and threateningly pulled out his six-gun. “Boys,†he shouted, “the game ain’t a straight one! Slippery Sam ain’t playing the hand I dealt him. * * * * snowyday

Oswald was in his most sentimental and extravagant mood. He was writing a letter to his sweetheart. Dearest Annabella, he wrote, I would swim the mighty ocean for one glance from your eyes. I would walk through a wall of flame for one touch of your tiny hands. I would leap the wildest river for a word from your lovely lips. Your own Oswald. P.S. I’ll be over on Saturday night if it doesn’t rain. * * * * snowyday

A man was boasting to a neighbor who had lived in the same block of flats that he had kissed every woman in the building but one. The neighbor, boiling with jealousy, went straight home and reported the story to his wife, saying, with a suspicious glance: I wonder, Maggie, who the woman is that he hasn’t kissed? Oh, was the reply, I suppose it will be that stuck-up Mrs. MacIntosh on the third floor. * * * * snowyday
