Sandy Paton	BS: Burma Shave! (42)	RE: BS: Burma Shave!	04 Oct 00
From my "Recollection Books" (Seattle) daily almanac: On this day in 1991 -- Leonard C. Odell who wrote 7,000 Burma Shave poems, died at 83. By the 1950s, when long-distance motorists were lucky to average 30 miles per hour, Odell had 7,000 quintets of signs strung along U.S. roadsides. The weather was clear The cars was whizzin', The fault Was hers The funeral his'n. Burma Shave. Her chariot Raced at eighty per, They hauled away What had Ben Hur. Burma Shave. http://sandbox.delphi.com/callahan/wall/burma_shave.html Sandy
