AtD, Opening Line

[Henry Winkler]

I think someone pointed this out a while ago...
From the 2nd or 3rd page of V...

"For it's said (and not without reason) that no sooner does a ship like the Scaffold single up all lines than certain Navy wives are out of their civvies..." etc.

So perfect, so much packed into that first line alone,
i was in tears when it was first passed down to us,
lo, those many weeks/months ago now.  I have a feeling
taht wen the group raed starts, dspite having been at
that line for some time now, it'll STILL take us days
to get past it.  So be ready to riff on it again ...
