| nightlinger confession, the - |
(n.) A prayer or confession which, in reality, is little more than a veiled, fourth-person (q.v.) threat. [from the quick prayer/confession of Mr. Nightlinger, Chuck Wagon Cookie on John Wayne's _The Cowboys_ (masterfully played by Roscoe Lee Browne, one of my favorite actors)]

Mr. Nightlinger was given one minute to make his peace with God before being hanged. Nightlinger's prayer ran thus: "I regret trifling with married women. I'm thoroughly ashamed at cheating at cards. I deplore my occasional departures from the truth. Forgive me for taking your name in vain, my Saturday drunkenness, my Sunday sloth. Above all, forgive me for the men I've killed in anger... and those I am about to...." (Nightlinger escapes, of course, and the Cowboy kids kill all the bad guys, including Bruce Dern, the best bad guy in history prior to Anthony Hopkins). |
