A short snorter is a banknote which was signed by various persons traveling together or
meeting up at different events, and records who was met. The tradition was started by bush
pilots in Alaska in the 1920's and subsequently spread through the growth of military and
commercial aviation. If you signed a short snorter and that person could not produce it upon
request, they owed you a dollar or a drink.

At first I was freaked by that photo of Howard Keel, my idea of one of the handsomest men in Hollywood. Then, after looking at it, I got the same idea of the 'real' man in deference to the 'reel' man.
