I Have to do it the Hard Way


When someone like Hedy Lamarr
Steps into the swankiest bar,
All the fellas get up
Light her cigarette up.
Me, I'd have to smoke a cigar.
And then they call me a car.

Poor Betty Hutton.
I just found your blog and had a good laugh.
I am curious, why do you call yourself Il Duce? He was a bad man, a very bad man.

Hi David,

thanks for stopping by. Yes Mussolini was a bad bad man, but as they say "He made the trains run on time". Not a small feat in Italy.

While in college my study partners began calling me Il Duce for my ability to take charge of a lackadaisical group, assign tasks and get things done. The name stuck, i.e. I was and still am a bossypants!
