Marcus the Greater, crop duster and patent attorney (not attorney-at-law) extraordinaire....
He bought the farm on long "King Cotton", after running to his "hidey-hole" and grabbing his "money sock" once too often to satisfy the fetid breath of the margin clerk.
He was right, right, right ... just that his timing was off .... not NEARLY as off as the guinea negro ... but off enough to hit a painful owie.
I LOVED his posts. He seemed a really good man.
