Heee, Heee.....Last night I throwed the rest of that 15 bean soup out in the yard for the javelina to chow down on. This morn'n it were all gone and the yard is rooted up where I throwed it. Pigs eat anything ya know.
What reminds me of the time....I were liv'n in La Marque, Texas at the time. I had recently took me a trip to Aransas Pass an' bought me up two of the cutest little piglets ya ever did see. I gonna be eat'n big ol' pork chops in no time flat. I builds me a little "pig pen" right next to the garage, buy me up a few sacks of hi protein grow fast pig foods an' sits back to watch them pigs grow. Well, I weren't aware that in the City of La Marque, there was a ordinance bout rais'n livestock an' such within City limits. Here I are, got me a couple rabbits in a cage out back, a dog what would never qualify as a pet, some stupit squak'n birds in another cage, a monkey on a chain an' two fine look'n pigs out by the garage. One morn'n I goes out to feed them pigs an' they is gone....pooof, just like that. Somebody done stole my pigs. So's I call the law....report a burglary.....grand theft pig. That were mistake #2....1st mistake was rais'n undomesticated critters in the City. They done write me up a citation, go see the judge and pays me a fine....an' I still ain't got no pigs. Got to get rid of the monkey on a chain an' put the squak'n birds in the house.
Been all over the news bout the troubles over in Afganistan....shoot'n, bomb'n an' such. That were my son is work'n. He tell me last night things is get'n hot over there. That all I can say. Security reasons ya know. I guess it's ok to say that his camp is get'n some of the "tastes of war". Hope they send him home real quick like.
I were sit'n here last night watch'n tv when I see this big ol' truck drive by. I says "that truck look familiar". Well, it were. It were Mike the fisherman I were fish'n with in Del Rio a few months ago. Damn....gotta catch up to him....he got a boat. I jumps in "that jeep" an' take off....look'n for Mike. Check all the campsites in the park. He ain't here. That leave only one other place to look....the Community park just down the road a piece. Gonna do that today. Damn, I go fish'n with Mike, I gonna catch me up some them 14 pounds bass.
Ok....gonna leave it at that....maybe come back later....more nonsense ya know.
Come on Sadie Mae, saddle up, we go'n for a ride.
It is always good to have a friend with a bass boat and another one with an off shore boat. Got to cover both ends.
ReplyDeleteBB will keep your son in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI was just getting caught up on my Blog reading and one of the Blogs I follow is Andy and Kathy over at My old rv.com and he reminds me a lot of you in his original thinking, and ability to see humor in almost anything he does.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to recharge your humor
bank and learn about Gate Guarding drop by his blog you will be glad you did.
I don't know this guy but I sure like to read his stuff.
River, I managed to find MyOldRV blog. Google is your friend ya know.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the Gate Guard jobs, I turned one down not long ago. The pay is excellent, but there ain't no way I could stay awake 24 hours a day to process all them trucks and stuff what go through that gate. That's a job for a couple, but they ain't gonna never gonna see each other.
Seems to me like you sure wasteful.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you just go buy a fish?
ReplyDeleteDarn Billy Bob was going to make a comment and I get this new fancy window and set-up that I have not seen in a blog thus far tonight.
ReplyDeleteNow what was I going to post? Oh yeah I remembered your friend Mike from Minnesota or somewhere up north that you had met in Del Rio and who was going to then go down to Falcon lake and meant to ask you about him.
If you find him I know you will be nabbing them big fish :)
Pigs are very smart animals, no they won't eat anything, my Grandfather raised them and they were darned particular, he said they know what is good and what isn't good. Hope your son is doing better, prayers for him. We are to have some snow soon, no precipitation this winter, so figure a big snow storm is on it's way indeedy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
