"More whiskey—and fresh horses for my men!"

Some Confederate general was supposed to have said it. I've also seen it in slightly different versions, like "fresh horses and more whiskey for my men." My rusty old pickup truck carries that saying on what's left of its rear bumper.

In fact, last year I was stopped by a patrol car and was relieved to find out that all the officer wanted was to know where I got the bumper sticker, so I mailed him one.

Maybe I'll get these words printed up, too: "Let us cross over the river, and rest under the shade of the trees."
