I still miss Shane. Hard to realize every person of note in that movie is now gone. Same way with "The Searchers" and the Original "Red River."

LD...

I was thinking bout leave'n but I'm feared they'd throw a going away party for me.

Joe, you remind in a way of my interview long after the war with a Canadian infantry officer's batman who did heroic things in desperation on the Dutch-German border: "I don't buttle to no one."

Giving in on this board to bad manners, foul language, racist slurs, bigotry, mischief and meanness is to be corrupted by it.

King Brown, thanks for the new word - buttle, actually I found two meanings. Your interviewee obviously meant "I won't be anyone's butler" while the modern meaning discusses perspiration and dead skin flakes... I like the older meaning better.

jOe, you're okay, I shake my head at some of your true but insensitive blunt remarks, but I've come to the conclusion that you don't do it out of meaness, it's just your nature. I actually view threads I wouldn't view otherwise when I see that you've added one of your succinct missives

Steve

More likely a "he's gone" party.

I'd hate to miss it

You'd be invited?

Ah Methinks it's time for "Tales From the Ranch!!"

*"Late again," the third-grade teacher said to
little Sammy.

*"It ain't my fault this time, Miss Crabtree. You
can blame this'un on my Daddy. The reason I'm three
hours late is my Daddy sleeps naked!"

*Now, Miss Crabtree had taught grammar school for
thirty-some- odd years. Despite her mounting fears, she
asked little Sammy what he meant by that.** Yesiree- another living testament to the dangers of our druggie society- a dog becomes a crack-head because the man of the house make it accessible to him- and even the kiddies- meth labs even on wheels, druggies and pimps in the streets and alleys of all our major cities, and now even the Homer and Jethro elements chimes in--wonder what sort of loads the old gent had in his two-holer- both barrels were choked how- and was it a hammer or a hammerless shotgun. Somehow I'm more inclined to think a Hardware Store, or Rears and Sawbuck or Monkey Wards "Nitro Marvel" was the escopeta de nuit--and I'll kick in a few bucks to get that poor dog into a rehab program, so he can start shaggin' the 'yotes on the farm instead of doin' rock or crack cocaine-

*Full of grins and mischief, and in the flower of his
youth, little Sammy and trouble were old friends, but he
always told her the truth.

*"You see, Miss Crabtree, out at the ranch we got this
here low down coyote. The last few nights, he done ate
six hens and killed Ma's best milk goat. Last night,
when Daddy heard a noise out in the chicken pen, he grabbed
his shot gun and said to Ma, "That coyote's
back again, I'm a gonna git him!''**


"Stay back, he whispered to all us kids!">

"He was naked as a jaybird, no boots, no pants, no
shirt! To the hen house he crawled, just like an Injun on
the snoop. Then, he stuck that double barreled 12 gauge
shot gun through the window of the coop."

"As he stared into the darkness, with coyotes on his mind,
our old hound dog, Zeke, had done woke up and comes
sneaking' up behind Daddy. Then, as we all looked on,
plumb helpless, old Zeke stuck his cold nose in
Daddy's crack!"

Miss Crabtree, we all been cleanin' chickens since
three o'clock this mornin'!"

Last Dollar,

I for one will miss you and hope that you don't leave. It's fair to say you have been around the block a few times and I am sure that keith and and his cabal of crazies are not the first thugs you've encountered. You speak sense to their non-sense and retreating only empowers them when they should not be empowered because they do far much more damage to second amendment rights then their worst fears about Obama. keith has nothing left but name calling, whether directed at you, other members or the administration. He lives in that bubble where information and fact are blocked and only spin gets through. At some point he will realize that he's been marginalized and shut up. Or maybe not. That bubble those guys live in is really effective at skewing reality.

Hogwash and blather, nca225.
