"Is a hole three feet deep below freezing level in this area?"

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Is a hole three feet deep below freezing level in this area?"

It all depends if there is snow cover.

[Delmonico]

Don't matter, when he logs in and sees that he's in the hole, he'll come out of there in a hurry.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

"At least he stopped puking. Though I reckon it'd be hard to choke to death on frozen vomit."

[gophergrease]

Del, we keep getting these guys comeing though going nouthto the Black Hills. You think there any money to be made up that way. I been thinking that some good cooks with a steady supply of beef, mite do ok. Trinity has 5 stills runing, $10.00 a gal.
The only ones that got rich back in 50's was the merchants.

[Trinity]

Trinity becomes aware of intense cold, but he is not yet awake.  When he finally does awaken, he is shivering so much that he can hardly focus on his surroundings.  Slowly details begin to filter into his consciousness.  The hole... the mound of dirt... the shovel... THE CROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


"Oh mah Gawd!  Ah'm Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Trinity]

..."Ah done always knowed that figs would do me in!!! "

Trinity lays in the shallow grave waiting for an angel to come take him to the judgement hall wishing that death didn't have to be so danged cold.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Oh, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother can't resist this one. With a small *pop* and a scattering of glittering sawdust, she disappears, then reappears, wearing a sparkling blue gown and floating over Trinity.

"Come home, child," she says with a smile, then waves her magic wand. With another *pop*, Trinity vanishes from the hole and reappears on his bed, wearing very clean, very white, very large, man's night shirt.

A few moments later, she wanders back into the dining room in her regular clothing and grinning.

[Trinity]

Within a split second after the appearance of the apparition Trinity finds himself lying in his bed all in white.  "Ah know what Ah must do oh great one" he whispers.  He hears boisterous laughter in the room outside his door.  Slowly, he opens the door and, holding his arms out in front of him, he walks into the room:

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!"

[gophergrease]

Gopher Grease looks at Trinity. "well he isnt dead, But shur looks like it." pulling a chair out GG tel Trinity to sit down. Ill get you a can of beans and leave the top on, that way youll know it safe. Here you need a cup of coffe and its safe to. Del would never let anyone put anything in the coffe pot, but coffe.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother stifles her laughter to whisper quietly into GopherGrease's ear:

"He thinks he's a ghost."

[Trinity]

"Y'all aint skeeert?  ...Ah ain' dead??"

Trinity doesn't know how to feel.  Happy because he is alive or sad that he was not scary.   

[gophergrease]

Aint much get me skeert any more, I done seen Del in his red nite shirt. That scary in the first light of the day.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother whispers quickly into GopherGrease's ear: "You let him off too easily."

Then she turns and looks at Trinity as if seeing him the first time:

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! A GHOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

( Meanwhile, in the backwoods of Virginny, AnnieLee gets the mental image of Del in his red night shirt: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! )

[gophergrease]

Trinity this will help ya warm up and fell less dead.

[Trinity]

"Thankee Miss FFG fer tryin' ta cheer me up, but Ah know now that Ah am indeed a-live, and fer that Ah am e-ternally grateful!  Ah mussta dreamt about that grave, though.  Figs is got some powerful brain toxin in them (as if Trinity has any idea what he is saying) an Ah don' ever wanna see them agin!"

"...another thing Ah don' wanna see again is tht image of Delmonico in his nahtshirt"  Trinity shivers.

Just then, Gophergrease hands Trinity a hot cup of ... something.  Trinity, being a proper southerner is very gratious:  "Thankee too, Gophergrease. "  Trinity pretends to drink but as soon as Gophergrease turnes his head pours it into one of the many indoor plants that Delmonico had filled the house with.   "Mmmm!  Delicious!"

[gophergrease]

Dont worry about any more figs, Trinity. If I give you anything more with them in it, I will give you both my LaMats. I done used up all I had on you last nite. 

[Delmonico]

Delmonico and Duke come out of Delmonico's office, Delmonico is wearin' his red plaid flannel nightshirt.   He walks over to the coffee pot with his "Big" 'namelware cup in his hand.  He then pours the remainder of the pot in the cub, looks and says, "Damn only a HALF cup left for me."  Him and Duke go back inta the office.

[gophergrease]

Whats the punishment for not making a pot after you empty it?
