Just heard on the local (Boston) news

[luckypunch]

They will put two lanterns in the windows of the Old North Church if Kerry wins. The last time it was done was in 1960 for JFK.

13. Great Marx Brothers Scene from Duck Soup

Groucho said "one if by land and two if by sea" ...

he looked up and one light went on, then another and then a third light ...

his response: "oh no, they're coming by land AND sea" ...

maybe we should light 3 lanterns if Kerry wins ...

SNIP

He said to his friend, "If the British march
By land or sea from the town to-night,
Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry arch
Of the North Church tower, as a signal light, --
One, if by land, and two, if by sea;
And I on the opposite shore will be,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex village and farm,
For the country-folk to be up and to arm."

[Oddman]
