Tota fabula iocorum est plena, qua de causa videbitis et professeres doctors et studiosos pueros perpetuo risu pulmones agitare. Histriones autem sunt omnes ad fabulam huius modi agendam aptissimi, nam minima cum difficultate Latine loquuntur, gestus vehementissimos faciunt, etiam saltare possunt. Ille quidem quie et Scaphae et Phanisci partes agit, videtur reapse saltatrix Romana esse.

Texas and Oklahoma are not independent Balkan powers. If they were, they would have been at war last week, with a frontier bridge across the sluggish Red River as causa belli. As it was, Oklahoma's bewhiskered Governor William Henry ("Alfalfa Bill") Murray† declared martial law and called out guardsmen on his side of the river.
