I'll finish that poem. . .
Show Description
Shep reads 4th of July Poem by Shel Silverstein This is followed by the reading of "Ludlow Kissel and the Dago Bomb that Struck Back" one of Shep's short stories from Playboy, which appeared in his book "In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash", and ultimately in the movie "Great American Fourth of July and Other Disasters"
Comments
• Shep refers to In God We Trust All Others Pay Cash having been published the year before (1966) and the Dago Bomb story having appeared in Playboy "a couple of years ago, (July 1965) This makes it seem that the show is from 1967.
