To Have and Have Not



         As armies of prattle-wielding suburban Democrats storm the Second Amendment once again, hell bent on stopping rural Republicans with legal guns from defending themselves against ghetto Democrats with illegal guns, one of our favorite movies seemed to step into the fray last night.  We’ll spare you clips of the gunfights, exemplifying the real reason for all the gun violence in this country - ghetto Democrats with real guns acting out what Hollywood Democrats with fake guns teach them onscreen – but those scenes aren’t as good as the two linked below anyway.

         And, by way of welcoming our new Kappa Sig subscribers to The MacDougal Post, both clips feature brother Hoagy Carmichael at the gin mill piano.

         For those of you who have no idea what we’re going on about with that, know this.  In his novel, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Ian Fleming described James Bond as “…certainly good-looking … Rather like Hoagy Carmichael in a way.  That black hair falling down over the right eyebrow.  Much the same bones.  But there was something a bit cruel in the mouth, and the eyes were cold.” 
         That’s how cool the songwriter/actor/KZ who also gave us Stardust was.  Oh, okay, we may as well toss Hoagy's signature song in too.
