1. You can tell a fake cowboy on account he don't got no dust on his hat

and there ain't no wrinkles in his duds.

[KansDem]

7. Yeah, it's the "J.R." look...

[saltpoint]

8. LOL! Same ethics system, too -- none.

[MuseRider]

11. I'll bet he

doesn't even have a scrunch over his boots. The JR look fer sure.

:hi:

[saltpoint]

12. Hey there, MuseRider.

A howdy-do right back.

How was the Big Apple? When you get time, I want a full report.

[MuseRider]

13. I had the most wonderful time!

I loved it there, loved Broadway. Most of all we were taken for a day of wonderful fun, touring and just plain friendship by ThomCat. I have not had the time to put down any real thoughts like I wanted to since we got back. We move on Monday but the house is not entirely done yet. Been too busy for more than just lines or two here. I will let you know later and thanks for your help before I left.

[saltpoint]

14. What a terrific match -- your great spirit in a truly world capital.

Sounds like you had a very formidable guide, too.

I'll be patient on that update, and you take your time and get settled in.

Say hello to your beautiful quadropeds you keep for me.

[MuseRider]

16. I am headed out right now

to be certain the horses are well watered and hayed and to give my little sweetie goats their "night night snack". Gods I am such a pushover! I will give them all a Crusoe kiss!

[saltpoint]

17. LOL! Thanks. Be safe on the road in case others aren't. Have fun and

listen to some great music on the way out there.

[MuseRider]

19. Thanks but

I have been living in my barn office since late December trying to keep up with the house and because of the goat surprise and everything that went along with it. SO, I am already here and will do it all then come in and fall into my little lonely bed. Monday is the beginning of getting back to life! Now I am really going out. They will be well kissed, should I now refer to you as Uncle Crusoe?

[saltpoint]

20. It was Joni Mitchell what give me the name, ma'am. "And live like

Old Crusoe..." she says in that first album.

She seemed like a learned lady, she did, and the name just stuck.

[MuseRider]

21. Wow, I don't think I know

that one. Is that possible? I would not have thought so but apparently it is. She is terrific isn't she?

[saltpoint]

22. You said it. She's the best.

The tune is on her first album, called either JONI MITCHELL or SONG TO A SEAGULL (it's catalogued as the first title but she draws a bird formation on the cover to say the second title).

David Crosby produced the album.

The verse is:

I came to the city
And lived like old Crusoe
On an island of noise
In a cobblestone sea
And the beaches were concrete
And the stars paid a light bill
And the blossoms hung false
On their store window trees
My dreams with the seagulls fly
Out of reach out of cry

--a passage about her time in New York City. There are a handful of songs about New York on that album -- glimpses that no one else has ever quite matched, IMO. In one she's riding in a taxi and writes:

"I saw an aging cripple selling Superman balloons..."

Lines like that knock me out.

2. It really worries me

whenever that bastard is smiling. He usually doesn't.

[begin_within]

3. Reminds me of...

[Mojambo]

4. POSER. N/T

[partylessinOhio]

5. "Vice" fits him so well.

[kdmorris]

6. Who knew Voldemort looked so bad in a cowboy hat? n/t

[Sarah Ibarruri]

9. Looking at its face, the word pig comes to mind. :-)

[Sparkly]

10. Our long national nightmare CAN'T continue forever....

Hopefully, it'll be over in January, 2009.

That's the most pleasant thing I can muster. :puke:

[AtomicKitten]

15. "go f*ck yourself" comes to mind (nt)

[NoFederales]

18. Wouldn't you love to put a branding iron on this fucker?

And even if he is too old, nut cuttin' would be an interesting prospect for ol' Dick to contemplate. (After a day of cuttin' many years ago, my dad and some of his drunk idiot friends ran an old bull into the pen, said "he's the last one!", ha-ha-ha on us. Big Dick wouldn't be near as scary as that wild-eyed old bull was....)

23. There's an old saying: "Cowboy hats are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole has one."
