and I reflected that he was a lot like what pool players are

Not the part about a Rose on his chest
and a gun on his hip

but the mentality of stepping into harms way and testing himself

The idea of putting cans on a fence and mowing them down can
be satisfying to some people,good people ,sane people,sensible people,
the kind of people you like for neighbors,

Then along comes the James gang and they are riding fast and shooting pistols
.,they make untoward advances toward the women folk.

Wally Peepers the shop keeper once shot 72 cans in a row,6 dozen if you are counting
,but his knees are shaking, now , Wally tells the town council that those cans aren't shooting back.
"A fella could get hurt,by golly,a fella could get killed out there"
No sir Wally might shoot cans at the county fair,but this is why we pay the sheriff

Its dangerous when the cans are shooting back,it becomes a different ballgame.
Not so easy to stand firm and mow them bad guys down or is that wobbly knee telling me what my heart
already said secretly "get down fool" and it don't mean dance like a minority member.


No sir,its time to call Keith Mc Creedy, he may not be as sober as the sheriff,he might
not ever shoot a can on the fence but that guy is grinning at danger, he don't care
about them bullets flying his way ",let those villains worry about the bullets flyin their way" for a change,
"let the other guy feel the heat"
Yes siree by golly give the job to Keith,does anyone know how to find him?

,
He stares danger in the face,but I'm not sure he knows how dangerous it is
Why is he always smiling when heat get hot?"

Does he not feel the heat?

He doesn't care does he.?

Wally tells the Town council "I am sure Keith can get those evil hombres
those wild varmints to hightail it outta town pronto no doubt about it"

",but I'm still not sure the women folk would be any safer"


Now you get the idea of what a pool player is...

I feel so much better

Remember in E.T when E.T. and all the kids were walking around
trick or treating. E. T. sees a kid in a Yoda costume, gets all excited
"HOME HOME", or a movie when someone is lost in a foreign
country and hears someone speaking their language. "I'm not alone
I'm not alone". After reading through the posts today, I tell my wife,
read some of these. Just look what PT,EYE,GC,MA and. "STOP" she
says. Just because you've found a dozen or so people out of 300 million
that does not make you or DEAN in less crazy. If you all lived in the
same area there would be a fence around it. Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah, well
maybe the other 299,999, 988 are the ones that are crazy, ever think
of that, yeah I didn't think so. She didn't have an answer to that.

I’m kinda pleased that Dean brought up Bo Didley....
...I liked his guitar over BB King....saw Bo live many times.

He used to do a thing he called soul opera...
..one of the ladies in his band would say “You think you’re soooo smart.”
Bo would reply “SMART?I’m the cat that invented knowledge!”

But Jack, your wife is correct....we are batshit crazy
