Yup, more Buster Keaton -- this time, from The High Sign* -- the second of his solo shorts to be released (But actually the first one he wrote):

It reads, for those who can't see images: "Our Hero came from Nowhere-- he wasn't going Anywhere and got kicked off Somewhere."
I figured there were enough writers on my f'list to be amused by this. even if Buster Keaton himself leaves you cold.
*That is: the secret sign of the "bold bad bunch of blood-thirsty bandits" who recruit Our Hero to be a hit man.
