Can't draw either. That one's almost as bad as the Trojan commercial with the pigs that I saw way too many times during the bowl games. I told my wife that I wished I knew it was so easy back when I was trying to pick up chicks in the bar.

What about the mandolin player, after all it's not the size of the instrument that counts.

We looked down the river and we see'd the British come.
And there must have been a hundred of'em beatin' on the drum.
They stepped so high and they made the bugles ring.
We stood by our cotton bales and didn't say a thing.

I could never figure out why those Scots in kilts, playing bagpipes, were supposedly up on the front lines striking terror in the hearts of those colonists.
I eventually concluded that the Brits put them up there to absorb musket balls from any of the colonists who weren't doubled over with laughter.
