    A doxology is "a hymn or verse in Christian liturgy glorifying God", but what might it have to do with this famous man's death by assassination?

    That would be Pablo P. I'me a long time fan and that made identifying the pic easy. I'll get back with a new question ASAP (assuming that I'm right of course and not making a public fool of myself LOL)

    I was Damned a long long...LONG... time ago. :-)
    I wonder how many times a person can be damned? Once would seem to be enough, or does being double-damned take you to a damn'ier place then just a single damn does?

    Back OT. The bridge requires a lot of paint and is often used to discribe a sisyphusian task.

    Correct.
    I was going to put up a pic of the Tallahatchie bridge and quote from the song 'Ode to Billie Joe' but when I went looking for an image it seems that EVERY bridge across the river is called the Tallahatchie bridge. :-)

    That's be a bit obvious - I don't think it would be wise to name part of the answer in the question.

    Halleujah by Leonard Cohen.
    I had the pleasure of seeing him play this year. Wonderful gig despite the rain.
    Cohen's songs are very influenced by both religion and sex. Being an old goat I tend to lean towards the non religious lyrical content ;-)

    Question in anticipation:

    Born today (18th-Dec-1932) this author is best known for his science-fiction and fantasy books but he has also dabbled in rock music.
