RE: Mosby
I had the privilege to catalogue Gen. Tidwell's papers over in the James O. Hall Library a few years back and one of the most enjoyable things about it was to watch how his mind worked. He was a fantastic gentleman whom, I sorry to say died before I got into the Booth story, I never got to meet.

Ah, Laurie, there are so many more twitches to come!

As an ex-school teacher you will appreciate what a vexing student I was. Always twitching lions' tails and one of the sharpest students in class at the same time. Never got caught until my senior year when my Spanish teacher gave me the standard 10 demerits for disorderly conduct in her class. She was a lovely woman--looked like the Old Maid in our card set at home, red hair piled up on her head. She smiled when she signed the form, "Ah, señor," she said, shaking her head--I smiled, too, "Gracias, señora. Que amble."

You cannot imagine the other teachers who praised her so effusively. I always wondered what took one of them so long to act! BTW she is the one who taught me how to speak Spanish like a Sonoran vaquero. Que bueno! (Sorry, I only get some of the diacritical marks on my email program).

Enough of this--back to Come Retribution. I agree with scldrgnfly.
