Not bold enough to venture into west territory ? You mean the land of Courtney Love and the tough guys dressed in black who break all the windows in department stores downtown to show how tough they are?

LOL, are you jokin' or smokin'?

Brace yourself, that ain't your daddy's Washington. Sorry, but greasy-headed Grungies singing about dope and whining about the police doesn't exactly conjur up romantic memories of the old wild west for me.

That area was settled by tough men but over the... [ More ]

Yeah, I ambled on down there (SC) and got me a couple raffle tickets too. Forgot to get the Sourwood Honey when I went thru NC though, dagnab it. Took the dirt road over the mountains through Pisgah back into Tennessee. That was kinda fun. Gets a little hairy meeting somebody going the other way on that narrow road though.

Did you ever consider that those freaks came from California? I'll tell you one thing about Oregon men you don't know- they can hold their liquior and keep their wives.

You have not lived until you pulled green chain or went over the Columbia River Bar, Ridge.

I think I ll pick up a few tickies for those of you who are not bold enough to venture into the west territory with your Kansas City carpetbags. Heck, even Sar-a comes down here to see her inlaws and outlaws, and you can't get much m... [ More ]

Yes sully, as I've cautioned before, getting your head stuck in a pickle jar is not a good way to go.

I'd like a couple also, seems to me someone in that picture is going to end up with a pickle jar on their head before the Thanksgiving meal is over.

I'd like to have me a couple of them raffle tickets but I never travel to blue states unless I have to. They have too many people that look like that guy in the black shirt with the necklace in the picture. I don't usually have too much to talk about with people who look like that. I would imagine that's what most men in Oregon look like. The guy in the red and black shirt looks kinda like me in my younger days before wayward, lustful, wanton, insatiable wimmins and oceans of whiskey took their... [ More ]
