There was a time in the Old West
When people tried their level best
A special breed
With but one creed:
Get the gold before all the rest!

Ha, ha. Then they migrated to the Midwest, Chicago that is. Put on their ties. Ate apple pie. Became 'Aldermen' And learned Latin: Ubi est mea? (Where is mine?).

Interesting how America goes on about the Gunfight at the OK Corral when Chicago can not get through a day without someone being shot (and not for COVID-19) . . . ..
