"Kiss me, Hardy."

Oct 16, 2005 03:10


On this 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, I wanted to post a link to Bob Brumfield's hilarious comedic saga about trying to prove that Lord Nelson's last words were in fact "Kismet, Hardy," a sober reflection on the outcome of the battle. However, it doesn't appear to exist electronically, although the book it's in is actually available via Amazon.com.

I know he's not the only one to put forth that idea, but he probably made up the most convoluted story for it. Makes me wish I had that book with me.

Coincidentally (and only Lisa will get the significance of this), when we had dinner at Steak and Shake last night, they advertised their "Caramel Mocha Sundae Shake" thingie as a "Carmel Mocha Sundae Shake." ;D
