No words of mine can hope to convey to you the ringing joy and hope embodied in that spontaneous yell: “The Americans are coming; at last they are coming!”

I hadn’t the heart to disillusion them.

Lead Pot

Yaw, and never put a cold ladle in the soup. I did that a few times at work in the winter. I emptied a 30 lb lead pot a few times dipping a dry cold ladle, and I knew better. I pealed lead sheets off like news paper. :roll:
When you feel the boiling condensation through the ladle handle, the steam is building up under the lead and you hear the gun go off, It's to late.
