    And it’s because of officers like Captain Aszhat that noncoms are the key to having a competent army.

    /// The Swede, Magnus Stenbock, here is seated

    on his horse facing foes he defeated.

    The Danes at Helsingborg,

    which now smells like a morgue

    from horse corpses left when they retreated.

    /// Magnus fans his hat. This act dispels

    just a bit of the foul wind-borne smells.

    The sickening stench is

    from bodies in trenches,

    and those purposely thrown into wells.

    Actually, that was the drummer’s hat. It was confiscated for the greater good.

    Thanks to Captain Wrongway and a ban on shrooms, no future Marines marched into the ocean to search for and fight the Atlantian enemy.

    When the Swedes defeated the Danes,

    Soon thereafter they went to some pains/

    To occupy regions/

    Once held by Norwegians :/

    Might the Swedes be deficient in brains ?///

    When at last they achieved “liberation”/

    And were able to have their own nation/

    They gathered their forces/

    And attacked fellow “Norses”/

    Not averse to some colonization..///

    Pennsylvania- from which Ishmael’s sprung-

    May also be numbered among/

    Places Sweden once ruled/

    (If you’re properly schooled)/..

    Swedish holdings were once quite far-flung!

    New Orleans is this way men! ♫We looked down a river and we see’d the British come And there must have been a hundred of ‘em beatin’ on the drum They stepped so high and they made their bugles ring We stood behind our cotton bales and didn’t say a thing♫

    Paste (including the quote marks) 

    "Category:1923 oil on canvas paintings" Wikimedia 

    (syntax supported by the Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, and Yandex search engines) in the browser address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and choose the first Category: found, and once there find the text string Magnus, and click its link for info and links that point to more info (perhaps best viewed using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, which can automatically translate most webpages if necessary) about this large painting. File history has the strip coloration image (last one).

     

    Again, a larger strip image is also shown by merely clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s THROWBACK THURSDAY: MASTERPIECE #2579 (11/16/20) (November 15, 2023) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment. I have added a comment there pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, only work by him used here (2 times total, including this Throwback Thursday repeat), the November 16, 2020, strip being its first use.

    We have no reliable stats/

    on the fabrication of hats/

    or the methods they used/

    to keep women enthused/

    Like festooning the brims with dead cats..

    So we shifted from fur to feathers/And we shifted from cats to leathers/Now the cats are a bane/and the birds on the wane/ but the milliners feel much better..
