[Alpines] Something I don't understand

[Tony Somebody]

Hi Mate-The same thing happens here in the states. When I was in basic
trainiing in the Air Force in St. Antonio, Tx. we had enough snow to say the
ground was covered- they shut the entire base down.I remember getting in
trouble for lauging at the situation. Imangine we where being told just how
great our air force was(is) and they let a snow that was so thin you couldnt
build a snowman close them down. I thought it was funny, the drill instructors
didnt- they won.

Ah, well you see he had the courage because he had whiskey in his jar.

I could have done with some of that this morning. We have a whole inch of
snow, and the UK has come to a standstill. You guys in Finland and Northern
US
states should find this mildly amusing. My brother in Utah has to plough feet
of snow off his drive each morning, and we can't deal with an inch!

For at least 30 years I have tried to understand what this song means:

s I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry Mountains
saw Captain Farrell and his money, he was countin'
first produced my Alpine and then produced my Rapier
said, "Stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya"

hy devil should take a man who have seen both an Alpine and a Rapier?
or 30 years I have not slept well because of this problem. And I have
ad not courage enough to buy a Rapier.
