That Mencken, he wasn't so dumb. One Saturday evening, his usual poker crowd was joined by a new, and much younger, man. After the usual pleasantries and a few hands, the refreshments were broken out. An absolutely delicious hunter's sausage was served and the young man took particular pleasure in its punch. Pursuing the matter the youngster inquired as to its provenance. Without missing a beat, Mencken chime up, "that? Oh, why that's a specialty our friend here, the coroner, provides." ****** “The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to tell them the truth.” "You can lead a horticulture but you can't make her think." --Dorothy Parker
