[Silver Creek Slim]

"Howdy, FFG. A couple of 'em are getting over colds. How've ya been?"

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

"I've been well, thank you. I had to go visit some friends for a few days and Delmonico tried to put my room out for rent, but..." She shrugs a shoulder, "I stopped that. He's been cooped up in his office again and I think Duke has been tangling with something in there. In other words, it's normal. Sorry to hear about the colds, want me to send some oranges that way?"

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Oranges might help. Thanks."

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

With another wink, she gives a flip of her wand.
"Consider it done."

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Thank ya kindly, ma'am."

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

"Anything for the cousin of ol' whatsherface, the one with the skillet."

[Delmonico]

Since the spiders wern't for Slim but to use fer keeping bugs out a the cellar, Delmonico will still be able to get Slim, when the other two packages arrive.

[Trinity]

With another wink, she gives a flip of her wand.
"Consider it done."

"Miss FFG, Ah got sompthin here that will help them younguns' colds.  Will ya zap it over to them??  Now, Slim... go easy with it, a little goes a loooooooooooooong way  "

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

The Frumpy Fairy Godmother hops down from the fence rail and in turn hugs Trinity and Slim.

"How about if we mix some honey with the brew that is in that jar you gave me, Trinity, and send that to the kids, to be given to them one spoonful at a time, to help with their cough? The mint in it would help, too."

[Trinity]

"Naw, Miss FFG, ya gotta take deep swigs.  Least, that's what mah great-granny always tolt me when ah had a cold as a little booger."

[Delmonico]

Delmonico thinks that Trinity is gonna get in trouble for providin' alcholic beverages to miners and minors.

Mean while he goes to the window, hopin' the brown stagecoach will show up with his wolverine and the 3 jars of vasoline.   Then Slim will be in fer a surprise.

[gophergrease]

Ya cant get in trouble for given acholic stuff to miners, unless they dont want to pay and just shot ya for the booz.


With 3 jars of vasoline Del mite be planing a trip to califoran??

[Delmonico]

Suddenly the stage rolls up to the porch.  A Irun box is unloaded and a brown paper wrapped package.      Delmonico heads to his office and shuts the door leavin' Duke out side.  To those near, the faint smell of ether is smelled near the door and the nasty snarlin' sounds that came out of the iron box have quieted.

[Delmonico]

<Whisper on:  A wolverine that has traveled 600 miles in an iron box on a stagecoach is not gonna be in good humor.  If ya put him to sleep and rub him with vasoline and comb his hair the wrong way, it's gonna look bad.  Ya know what is worse than a wolverine with a bad hair day?      One that wakes up in a strange room with a bad hair day and tabasco sauce splashed under his tail. >

Hope Slim looks under his bed a fore he goes to sleep.

[Silver Creek Slim]

I ain't goin' ta sleep in that room. 

Did ya get that hairball from Michigan? 

[Delmonico]

Yep and he's havin' a bad hair day.  

<Whisper on:  If yer scared of it Slim just whine to the FFg, she'll turn it inta a freshly groomed toy poodle or sumthin' like that. >

[Silver Creek Slim]

...with BIG teeth and claws. 

[Delmonico]

A poodarine.   

[Silver Creek Slim]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

[Delmonico]

That is bad Slim, it looks like someone drew fangs and claws on a poodle with magic markers.  sorry Slim it ain't gonna scare no one.  Now if you can't do better there is no supper fer you!
