  1. Big Rock Candy Mountain! What do Haywire Mack, Burl Ives, and the movies O Brother Where Art Thou and Runaway Jury have in common? The song “Big Rock Candy Mountain!” The lyrics of the song describe a traveling hobo who comes down the tracks to find peace and perfection at the BRCM. According to the song, Big Rock is a place where the handouts grow on bushes, the cops all have wooden legs, and you sleep all day next to a spring of lemonade.

  2. Circleville

Butch Cassidy died in bed… (not) with his six guns blazing in a murderous shootout with soldiers in Bolivia… (He) was using the alias William Philips when he died of cancer in 1937.”
