SAVONAROLA WAS EASY
'Burn this courthouse down' - a very decidedly
simple-minded puritan of haste and want (I heard)
say that, stalling for time. It was a way back ago
in the terrible old west : 1868, I think. They'd
just buried some lunkhead in his boots
(by mistake) and the newly-cut pine box
was not fitting him too well. As I
remember, he simply sat bolt up
and suddenly said
'What the Hell?'
