  3. Bithead says:

    Mr Gore, who failed as a politician, is attempting a second carreer… He’s trying to make in in the field of acting. Here, Mr. Gore is trying out for the part of Atticus Finch, from “To Kill a Mockingbird”.

    Mr Gore has put on 40 lbs to play the role, but has somehow neglected that Atticus Finch wore glasses.

    Now there’s no need for that I know exactly what hell tell you. Lies! He was no different than any officer in the wardroom — they were all disloyal, I tried to run the ship properly by the book but they fought me at every turn. If the crew wanted to walk around with their shirttails hanging out that’s all right let them take the tow line. Defective equipment no more no less, but they encouraged the crew to go around scoffing at me and spreading wild rumors about steaming and circles. And then old yellow stain. I was to blame for Lt. Merrick’s incompetence and poor seamanship. Lt. Merrick was the perfect officer but not Captain Queeg.
    Ah, but the strawberries! That’s where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, and with geometric logic, that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox did exist! And I’d have produced that key if they hadn’t pulled Caine out of action! I-I-I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officer and!
