Hi. My name is tucker. I'm
- Hi. My name is tucker. I'm
- wanted by you!" Tucker said as he pointed at Uncle Sam's face. Uncle Sam was finally realizing how weird it is to be pointed at so insistently. "Dr. Tucker, I'm having a break
- in my psyche right now, thank you very much." Uncle Sam sipped his Royal Crown cola. Tucker pretended to be busy, but he was reeling inside. That's when the delivery was made.
- A case of Moon Pies. Tucker sighed in relief. Moon Pies could cure almost any ailment, physical or psychological. "Uncle Sam? How 'bout snacking on one of these with your cola?"
- "Huh?" Uncle Sam scratched his armpit with a fork. "Yeah, sure." Stars & Stripes Forever played on and on in his mind. He forked the moon pie into his mouth and chugged the cola.
- Uncle Sam brushed crumbs from his beer belly & belched. God, he hated this Souza march. The color blue. The taste of apples. Most of all, he hated the crushing expectation to be
- Policeman of the World. He never asked for the job and didn't want it. Just because he stood for something did not mean others couldn't do so as well. Take John Bull for instance.
- John Bull was ubiquitous in political cartoons from 1910 onward. He and Uncle Sam were seemingly joined at the hip. For some reason political correctness managed to alter that and
- everyone knows that an altered bull is not of much use on the farm. So Uncle Sam had a long talk with John Bull. In the end, they agreed that it was time to put him out
- of our misery. We set him sail on a slow boat to China. He has a job as fashion model in Beijing and often sends us souvenirs. My favorite are the tiny foot bells.

Especially tiny foot cow bells or Bull bells as the case may be.
