Going to dedicate my op-ed collection to Lewis Grizzard. His titles were long and humorous, and I want to give him a nod. Which do you like best?

1. They Ripped Out My Ticker and Threw that Bugger into a Big Mud Puddle

3. Nothing Like a Birth to Start a Feud--Unless It's a Funeral. (I think this is a bit too unfunny.)

In God I dwell, especially in Eugene OR
Sat Nam! (literally "Truth Name"--a Sikh greeting)

I might read the second; it's intriguing...if a bit long. The first just sounds confusing.

Blessings,

As I said in the OP the book is dedicated to Lewis Grizzard. The long titles are a nod to his long titles. I'm going with the second.

Haven't read anything by him, so had no means to compare. Glad you're going with the second.

I understand. Lewis Grizzard was a Georgia writer with a humorist op-ed in the Atlanta-Journal Constitution. He compiled his articles into books such as...

Shoot Low Boys They're Riding Shetland Ponies
Elvis is Dead and I Don't Feel So Good Myself
Don't Bend Over in the Garden, Granny, You Know Them Taters Got Eyes

I will translate Sat Nam =True Name...

I will pick up first. But most of my nonfiction interests are confined to Health and Spirituality....
