Sandra...
How about a new sig with the "coming early 2007" taken out of it? Perhaps you could substitute the title.. "The Blue and the Grey"... or something.

While we're on the subject of captions and tag lines, I am quite glad "our hearts were filled with fire," or whatever it was, seems to have died a death of neglect. It always made me think of the feeling I get from eating too much spicy food more than anything else...

I liked it. Better than 'the Blue and the Grey'. Again.
Love the artwork, Sandra. Quality stuff.

"Through our great good fortune, in our youth our hearts were touched with fire. It was given us to learn at the outset that life is a profound and passionate thing. While we are permitted to scorn nothing but indifference, and do not pretend to undervalue the worldly rewards of ambition, we have seen with our own eyes, beyond and above the gold fields, the snowy heights of honor, and it is for us to bear the report to those who come after us."

Yeah, I know. I'm a lawyer. I had to read a lot of OW's bombasticity.
It still reads like "heartburn" to me.
Best O.W. Holmes anecdote for me? He was involved in a minor squabble with a neighbor farmer over to whom some pigs that had gotten loose belonged. Holmes was in the midst of waxing erudite, citing cases involving foxes, elephants, chickens, and even petroleum.
The old farmer stamped his foot, spit terbacky juice on the ground, and exclaimed, "Gol durn it, yerroner, if he's got a snout, hooves, and a curly tail and grunts and squeals, why, he's a pig, gol durn it!"
The porkers wound up remaining in the farmer's feedlot...
