Uh oooooo Pretty soon the parasols with the pointy tips will be coming
out. Then someone will get the vapors and pass out, then the other one
will feel bad <that's what genteel soughtern ladies do> then they will

It's too close to call now, I've got my lawn chair, a front row seat
and am mixing a mint julep.

unlike so many going on here.
