    Bruno Zeigerts: In college, I would choose movies on the basis of the one I wanted to see and the other of the (quite common in those days) double feature of a historic location and play find the errors. I have seen those “bolt action” muskets in quite a few movies. I got a laugh out of one in which there was a careful shot showing the charge being rammed into the barrel – except in that battle, they were using Ferguson breach-loaders. .The Alamo display cases aren’t much better, with caplocks (recently invented, but hadn’t reached Texas at that time – later conversions of original flintlocks, so were hardly used at the Alamo), and Roman-style gladius as back-up (various styles of knives, tomahawks, cavalry sabers, and even blunderbuses were the close-range weapons of choice). .We await what changes will take place now that control has been taken away from Daughters of the Texas Revolution – maybe a bit more recognition of the part Adelfa de Zavala played in preserving the building, as well as more accuracy in the exhibits.

    Keeping June 19th’s edition of this strip in mind:I wonder if these two guys ever had a slice of Lemon Meringue Pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on it? It might then be called a piece of Lemon Meringue Pie Alamo!!
