Chuck,

You say that you will cut the antenna for 66 ft (33/leg) because you want to
use it on 40 meters.  That makes sense but then you go one to say that you
want to use is on other bands.  I expect that 15 meters will work fine but
the others may not work as well as you might like.

I am inclined to do the same thing, and wrestling with feeding options,
except that I will cut the length to 44 ft (22/leg) in accordance with the
document produced by W4RNL.  Take a look at:

Reed the entire document before you make a final decision.  It won't take
too long.

This is my plan.  Good luck to you.
