Only eight Rangers out of two battalions escaped; the rest were killed or captured. The book is quite short, but it contains information that has not previously been available. I originally planned for it to be longer, but one of the Rangers I interviewed was very ill and I wanted his story out there while he was still living. RIP Carl. On Kindle NOW: Human Nature Calls.

AAA gets a . But not to worry, we've been paying Triple A for years and used it mainly for Trip. Tics and maps. After Ray and I individually searched for our respective cards, he pulled his from his wallet while I was still searching my purse (if you saw my purse, you'd understand why).

I dialed the number, answered all Automated Voice's questions (including giving AAA permission to locate where we were via the nearest cell tower), punched in my sixteen digit number and waited . When I finally got a human on the line, I noticed that the battery on Ray's phone was nearly exhausted so I quickly told her where we were, what the problem was and gave her my sixteen digit number AGAIN (I think they only have you punch it in when you're talking to Automated Voice to give you something to do while you're waiting). I told her I was going to lose the cell connection and that was prophetic.

1. Duck Soup is a 1933 Pre-Code Marx Brothers comedy film written by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, with additional dialogue by Arthur Sheekman and Nat Perrin, and directed.
2. The Pringles logo is a stylized cartoon caricature of the head of a male figure (officially known as "Julius Pringles") designed by Louis R. Dixon, with a large.

But, YAY!, my phone had two whole bars, so I dialed AAA and started all over again. This time Automated Voice asked the same questions, had me punch in my number, then announced that calling was heavy and wait time was 1. Gratified that they didn't tell me I could report the problem online, I wondered how many minutes of waiting it would take to exhaust two bars. I still don't know the answer to that question, because I became exhausted before the battery did. Worried about groceries spoiling in the heat, I gave up and called son Butch who came crosstown to our rescue with battery cables and a jump.

Do you know that a car battery can develop a short that keeps it from charging? Neither did we. But we are thrilled to now have a new battery sans short. I would cut AAA some slack if we didn't wind up paying the expensive tow ourselves when our car died at a stop light on a six- lane highway in Spirit Lake, Iowa. When we told the sheriff who quickly appeared that I had called our dealer back home (yes, I know he couldn't do anything hundreds of miles away, but I was frazzled) and we were preparing to call Triple A, he said that AAA was pretty useless there so we'd be lucky if they came to our rescue in two hours and he needed to clear us off the highway. If you're game, do a search on this site for Dear Ford Motor Company - Part Deux and you can read all about it. Actually, Triple A has been helpful for Ray's little truck, but both times the tow truck has come to our home, once to take it to the garage for repair and another time when Ray got it stuck in the back yard. AAA gets an A+ for that, but I suggest they call it Homeside Service rather than Roadside Service.

We haven't had much luck with the latter. Ray, my husband blessed with a green thumb, did. I was born with a black thumb and have dubbed myself the Kevorkian of house plants. Creeping charlies don't run when they see me coming, but I'm pretty sure I saw one flinch the other day when I walked by it.

I contend Ray has an advantage because he grew up on a farm where the chief occupation was digging in the dirt and planting things. The only time this city girl dug in the dirt was to give some tiny critter — be it bug or small frog — a proper funeral in a matchbox complete with flowers, tears and singing of hymns. By rights, I should be a funeral director. Ray has many beautiful flower beds on our seven and a half acres. His taste runs both to the common and the exotic, but one exotic houseplant, although beautiful, was exiled from the house because of its foul odor.

He bought it under the innocuous name of Star Cactus. Only later did we learn its true names: Corpse flower and Carrion Plant. The description of it says it gives off a ! We looked all over for a dead mouse before discovering it was coming from the plant in the solarium. I wrote a long- ago column about it. If you'd like to read it, click here.

Ray reset it and it started screaming again. The alarm company didn’t call so I checked a phone and read the message: Check phone line. Yep, no landline . Why do we even have one? I guess it is because we don’t want to disappoint telemarketers and charities asking for money. I have learned from experience that we need to report outages.

You’d think AT& T would know, but they don’t . I tried to report it. I consulted the last phone directory AT& T published (2. Maybe it was in 2. When I called via cell phone to report the outage, I was instructed to call back during regular office hours.

Not to worry. The old directory said I could report it online. I filled out the form: name, phone number and zip code, last four digits of my Social Security number and nature of the problem.

Then I was instructed that I couldn’t file the report unless I registered my account . I filled out everything but the validation code which was being sent to me, the message said, via phone (the landline that was out of order). At that point, I gave up and went to bed .

We had Direct TV for 2. DISH. Looks like we switched just in time.

However, if Direct TV had tried as hard to keep us as they’ve tried to get us back, we might still be with them. I shudder to think of it. Snake tales come clean.

Duck Soup (1. 93. Wikipedia. Duck Soup is a 1. Pre- Code. Marx Brotherscomedy film written by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, with additional dialogue by Arthur Sheekman and Nat Perrin, and directed by Leo Mc. Carey. First released theatrically by Paramount Pictures on November 1. It was the last Marx Brothers film to feature Zeppo, and the last of five Marx Brothers movies released by Paramount Pictures. Bitter contract disputes, including a threatened walk- out by the Marxes, crippled relationships between them and Paramount just as Duck Soup went into production. After the film fulfilled their five- picture contract with the studio, the Marxes and Paramount agreed to part ways.

Teasdale (Margaret Dumont) insists that Rufus T. Firefly (Groucho) be appointed leader of the small, bankrupt country of Freedonia before she will continue to provide much- needed financial aid. Meanwhile, neighboring Sylvania is attempting to annex the country. Sylvanian ambassador Trentino (Louis Calhern) tries to foment a revolution and to woo Mrs. Teasdale, and he tries to dig up dirt on Firefly by sending in spies Chicolini (Chico) and Pinky (Harpo). After failing to collect useful information against Firefly, Chicolini and Pinky are able to infiltrate the government when Chicolini is appointed Secretary of War after Firefly sees him selling peanuts outside his window.

Meanwhile, Firefly's secretary, Bob Roland (Zeppo), suspects Trentino's motives, and advises Firefly to get rid of Trentino by insulting him. Firefly agrees to the plan, but after a series of personal insults exchanged between Firefly and Trentino, the plan backfires when Firefly slaps Trentino instead of being slapped by him. As a result, the two countries come to the brink of war.

Adding to the international friction is the fact that Firefly is also courting Mrs. Teasdale, and, like Trentino, hoping to get his hands on her late husband's wealth. Trentino learns that Freedonia's war plans are in Mrs.

Teasdale's safe and orders Chicolini and Pinky to steal them. Chicolini is caught by Firefly and put on trial, during which war is officially declared, and everyone is overcome by war frenzy, breaking into song and dance. The trial put aside, Chicolini and Pinky join Firefly and Bob Roland in anarchic battle, resulting in general mayhem. The end of the film finds Trentino caught in makeshift stocks, with the Brothers pelting him with fruit. Trentino surrenders, but Firefly tells him to wait until they run out of fruit. Teasdale begins singing the Freedonia national anthem in her operatic voice and the Brothers begin hurling fruit at her instead.

Mirror scene. In one particularly surreal moment, the two men swap positions, and thus the idea of which is a reflection of the other. Eventually, and to their misfortune, Chicolini, also disguised as Firefly, enters the frame and collides with both of them. Although its appearance in Duck Soup is the best known instance, the concept of the mirror scene did not originate in this film. Max Linder included it in Seven Years Bad Luck (1. Harpo himself did a reprise of this scene, dressed in his usual costume, with Lucille Ball also donning the fright wig and trench coat, in the I Love Lucy episode . One segment is a variant on the old Negro spiritual .

Meanwhile, the exterior view of the building they are occupying changes appearance from a bunker to an old fort, etc. Firefly assures his generals that he has .

Variations of this phrase would later become a frequently used catch- phrase for Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny in Warner Bros. Due to the code, a man and woman could not be shown in bed together.

The camera begins the scene in a woman's bedroom, panning across the foot of the bed. A pair of men's shoes are shown on the floor, then a pair of women's shoes and then four horseshoes. Agile Software Development Life Cycle Process System there. The camera cuts to a shot of the entire room: Pinky is sleeping in one bed with the horse, while the woman is in another bed.

The film's writers recycled a joke used in Horse Feathers in this dialogue with Chico: Prosecutor: Chicolini, isn't it true you sold Freedonia's secret war code and plans? Chicolini: Sure! I sold a code and two pairs o' plans! The street vendor confrontations are also well- remembered pieces of physical comedy. Later, Kennedy (a much larger man) steals bags of Harpo's peanuts, and Harpo responds by burning Kennedy's new straw boater hat; in return, Kennedy pushes over their peanut wagon. Harpo responds by stepping knee- deep into Kennedy's lemonade tank, where he imitates a stereotypical Italian grape- crushing peasant; this drives off Kennedy's waiting line of customers. Just before the Mirror Scene is the Radio Scene.

Harpo tries the combination to the safe on a box which proves to be a radio, and it starts blaring the break- up strain of John Philip Sousa's . The music continues despite frantic efforts to silence, and finally destroy, the radio. Harpo often doffed his hat on- screen, but Chico very rarely removed his Tyrolean hat, even when indoors. For a few seconds on- screen in the earlier scene, Chico's head is uncovered, revealing a wavy wig. Chico had already started going bald when the brothers appeared in their first Broadway production, I'll Say She Is, in 1.

All of the Brothers' natural receding- hairline patterns were similar, but Harpo and Chico covered theirs with wigs (Groucho would later sport an obvious toupee in the films At The Circus and Go West).

Encouraged by this success, the studio suggested on August 2, 1. Already at this early stage, the story (provisionally entitled Oo La La. On August 1. 1, 1. Los Angeles Times reported that production would commence in five weeks with the famed Ernst Lubitsch directing. This was a turbulent time in the Marx Brothers' career.

Near bankruptcy and reorganization at Paramount Pictures brought fears that money due the Brothers would never be paid; as a result, the Brothers threatened to leave Paramount and start their own company, Marx Bros., Inc. This script shows that the basic story of what would become Duck Soup had been fixed. In February, Paramount announced that the title had been changed to Grasshoppers.

Leo Mc. Carey was set for direction of the film. Three days later The New York Sun reported that Duck Soup would start filming in June. Duck Soup's script was completed by July 1. Conversely, .
