behind the main street of Bisbee (a town I consider the San Francisco
of Arizona, partly because of its steep streets) before I "remembered"
that all I had was that handbrake.

14. "Go Raiders!"

When asked if he had any last words, minutes before his execution last week, Robert Comer looked at the gallery and said, “Yes, Go Raiders,” fueling speculation among sports analysts coast to coast.
Was he being flippant or crazy, or was he a die-hard fan?
Actually it was a private message to his attorney, Michael Kimerer, who, against his own anti-death penalty beliefs, helped Comer end his appeals.
The two men, who both come from northern California, visited that morning.
They chatted about football, as they often did.
“He spent a lot of time trying to make me feel better,” Kimerer said.
“You may feel defeated by this, but this is a victory for me,” Comer told him.

Kimerer was among the witnesses to the execution.
Comer looked right at him and smiled when asked his last words: “Go Raiders.”

I know what I am doing here with my collection of papers. It isn't worth a nickel to two guys like you or me but to a collector it is worth a fortune. It is priceless. I am going to turn it over to... Turn you back to me, please Henry. I am so sick now. The police are getting many complaints. Look out. I want that G-note. Look out for Jimmy Valentine for he is an old pal of mine. Come on, come on, Jim. Ok, ok, I am all through. Can't do another thing. Look out mamma, look out for her. You can't beat him. Police, mamma, Helen, mother, please take me out. I will settle the indictment. Come on, open the soap duckets. The chimney sweeps. Talk to the sword. Shut up, you got a big mouth! Please help me up, Henry. Max, come over here. French-Canadian bean soup. I want to pay. Let them leave me alone."
