in reply to Johnny Lee (Snicker)

Are we doing country today?

bless my $self={}, Highwayman; foreach (@coachroads) { $self->ride($_); } $self->attach(Sword->new()); $self->attach(Pistol->new()); $self->trade()->take($maid->{baubles}); $self->blade()->take($man->{lifeblood}); wait_until_spring_of_twenty_five; # FIXME: dates pre 1970 not supporte +d on UNIX so this is needs a better implementation $bastards->hang($self); # assume Lawmen or subclass thereof, side effe +ct uses Acme::Damn to unbless Highwayman instance bless $self, Highwayman; # still alive

I have no idea why I just wrote this, somebody please stop me before it's too late. I'll leave the Kris, Johnny, and Waylon parts to someone else.

    Country? The closest fit to the above that comes to my mind is this poem by Alfred Noyes, for which there is a folk ballad adaptation by Phil Ochs and a classical music adaptation by Lorena McKennitt.
