the lobby of piano movers?  Last I remember, Joe Allonby was
in that occupation (which is why I compared him more closely to Zoyd -
the gypsy roofer - than myself)

Are the piano movers in the Teamsters?

TR is not my hero except for starting the national park system.
Other than that, I pretty much give the big fat raspberry to his career.

The US could have bought off the Spanish for less money than it took to wage

This would have started the US on a course of living up to its ideals
of freedom.
Not to mention, occasion for some awesome Spanish and American ridottos.
