Subject: Sam Hill



For what it's worth, I keep thinking of a song, British I think,

about a cynical and nasty murderer going to be hanged named

Sam Hall. There are several versions. In one the chorus goes:



My name is Samuel Hall. It is Sam Hall. (repeat)

My name it is Sam Hall and I hate you one and all.

You're a bunch of muckers all. God damn your eyes.



I don't when the song or the expression Sam Hill started, but I've

started hearing the song in my head everytime I read a post about

Where in Sam Hill ....



My father used to use the expression. He moderated his language

around children (most of the time).
