"Men is from Tombstone" - heh. Maybe that's the origin of "Get the hell out of Dodge"?
O.K, CP,
Sources! Or, I'll uncrochet yer Afghan.
Love it..."HANG HIM HIGH, BOYS!! Okay, now a little to the left...oooh! Stop right there. Perfect!!"
Whatever did those poor cowboys do before the invention of the half-caf double latte with a twist?
That is hilarious, Pattie!!
I needed this chuckle. So cool, cowgirl.
Great lines!
Maybe some of the readers can add to them. (I'm saddling up and riding the range for a week or two--I will see what is posted next to the Wanted posters when I return.)
Now this here's dang funny.
how fun is that...
life would have been different in the wild west if there was a starbucks...it might have given the saloon a run for it's money.
CP,
You're killin' me. Now I have to close my office door (yes! I am reading your entries at (soul-sucking) work) when I read your blog. I'm thinking my fellow associates are thinking I'm crying due to the muffled noise emanating from within.
"In this town we got a way to deal with murderin' scum like you, Bart --civil litigation!"
Indded.
Pattie, you need to keep this set up as an ongoing segment or whatever, so folks can keep adding lines. These are just great and and they seem to get better and better. Love 'em!
