Trans-Species Identification Stops At Theft!

-


     Weapons add dignity to what would otherwise be a vulgar brawl.  The M1927A1 T-Gun has earned it's place in American history.  Complete with Cutts compensator and Blish lock, this over engineered machine delivers.  (at 450 per)  Illegal or not, Scribbles believes in honest dealings and right action.  Hah!  Just kidding.  Get there first with the most. 
     Inspiration for todays lesson was provided by channel 7.2, Austin, TX.  Yesterday was, for some reason, a war film day.  If the reader has not seen "Hell is for Heroes", then for the love of God and Country, don't.  Lots of weapons, and lots of Jeeps.  I love both of those things.  Bob Newhart was shoehorned into this movie and I do mean shoehorned.  Steve Mcqueen, Fess Parker, Bobby Darin and James Coburn round off this well filmed bad movie.  Also last night was the "Diary of Anne Frank", in case there was someone out there that still wished to see a film come hell or high water.  My favorite war movie is "Field of Honor" with Everett McGill.  By no means the best, just very gritty.  Only movie I've ever seen where the hero shouts "Every man for himself"!  Sauvé qui peut, you conceive.
     (I will send the orginal of this, along with a lengthy discourse on why society is to blame for everything, to the person who points out how I fucked up drawing the weapon).  Honest Injun!

The Back Cover   https://youtu.be/OKGCaiZDV28 Andrew the Bee is one of the extremely talented artists and writers I know from DeviantArt.  Andy is as good as any artist there is and it is an delight to be able to put up his work on my site.  We did this before but because the post depended on my knowledge of computer files it may have fallen a tad flat.  Here is the earlier version of this essay about a comics genre that I knew nothing about before reading all this. https://misterscribbles.blogspot.com/2020/01/jungle-comics-safari.html https://www.deviantart.com/andibi

Two Bad Men, Said Their Murderers

John Choate, 25 August 1818 - 3 August 1869 Crokett Choate, 1842 -3 August 1869 This tells of a grave by the dashing wave A fond friends lip that did quiver Of an eye that's hid by a leaden lid And a voice now stilled forever. John on the left.  They were originally buried where they were killed but October of that year the Refugio Masons moved the bodies to Rockport.  This was all part of the Sutton-Taylor feud, the Suttons were backed by the U. S. Government and of no particular righteousness, they were badge wearing murderers and bullies.  The two story house with the porch running around the second floor in the left background belongs to my sister.  A lovely house and the best behaved neighbors possible!

The Madonna Of Stalingrad

This superior drawing is known as the "Madonna of Stalingrad".  It was drawn by Lt. Kurt Reuber, a doctor and a protestant pastor.  It measures 3' by 4', and is charcoal on the back of a Soviet map.  It reads, running down the left side, Christmas at the siege, Fortress Stalingrad, Light, Love, Life.  It was flown out by his battalion commander (why was an officer leaving, his place was with his men) on what Wikipedia says is the last flight out but I dispute that.  Could be, though.  Reuber died in a work camp.  He drew another before his death.  The original is on display at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church in Berlin. The Prisoner's Madonna.  Reuber. The Germans starved their POW's to death, by policy.  The Russians then starved their German prisoners to death, by policy.  Of the 91,000 6th Army prisoners, 6000 would return home a decade later. 'The Eastern Front was the armies of two mass murderer...
