[Delmonico]

Slim, yer lucky ya only get sent ta bed with out supper.  There is a crazy woman runnin' around with a skillet again, she bonked me earlier.

Sides that I have faith ya can make a scarier lookin' Poodarine.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

(Hey now, that Poodarine made me laugh so hard, the people in the cubes around me were "prairie dogging."  I liked it! It was almost as good as the Evil squirrel!)

[Delmonico]

Delmonico goes to the ice box and gets the pounded round steak that has been soakin' in sourdough starter over night and puts it in a colander to drain.  He then gets out his twin 15 inch skillets and melts about an inch of lard in them and starts to pre-heat them.   

I big load of sourdough biscuits go into the oven and Delmonico flours the "pounded and soaked steaks" and starts to fry the.   He then gets out several cans of milk, cause canned milk makes the best gravy to put over those biscuits when the gravy is made in the drippings from those "Cosinero Fried Steaks."

As he sets the table in the dining room he leaves Slims spot empty cause he never came up with a better picture of a poodarine.   Slim has just a short time to do this or he gets sent to bed early with out supper.  And Delmonico was gonna see if Gopher Gtrease would make a really nice desert tonight.

( < Blows Pepsi out her nose> Oh man, that was bad. Really bad. So why am I still laughing? I dunno!

[Delmonico]

Well it's time fer the rest of us to eat, Slim you go to yer room.  We don't want to hear a peep out of you till mornin'.

[gophergrease]

Gopher Grease makes a plate and sneaks it to Slim, with a note "No more poodarines, please"

[gophergrease]

After super GG whips up some of the finest Choco moose that has ever been had at any ranch.

Telling Del, Slim can come out of his room. That thing skeet the hell out of me. The 1st one made me want to run for a wooden spike to drive in its heart. The 2nd is just bad.

[Delmonico]

As he's washin' up the dishes, Delmonico is laughin' to himself as to the mileage this bunch can get out of a couple of jars of vasoline.

Ok, Slim can get up, but if he goes out side, be careful there is a strange creature hangin' round,  it a cross 'tween a Siamese Cat and a Porkypine.

I'll call it a Bangpine.   Let Slim try to make a picture of that.

[Trinity]

Trinity looks at the first Poodarine scampering around and shouts "Hey, that ain't no Poodarine!  That's a Bichon-Frisearine!"  He staggers off to his room carying his jug muttering to himself about dog-illiterates.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Over her sighs of contentment over the chocolate mousse, the Frumpy Fairy Godmother conjures a picture to help Slim.

[Delmonico]

So now make a Chock-o-lite Moose.   Maybe a Strawberry Squirrel    sides that on the Bangpine I have a question,  errrr, never mind, I don't want to even think about it.

[Scattered Thumbs]

  This Newbrasskie outfit is starting to look like "The Island of Dr. Moreau" 

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

( It could be worse, it could look like the results of that genetic doctor on South Park. 

AnnieLee, and no, Delmonico, I don't know how that Bangpine was bred!)

[Silver Creek Slim]

"Thanks fer the grub, GG." 

[Delmonico]

Ya 'spose this would be a good time to investigate the "Sea Monster" that local legand says lives in Walgen Lake?   I have never belived it was a sea monster, more of an Alkali Lake monster.    Ok let me do so checking.  Ya didn't think we had sea monsters out here, so poodarines and bangpines ain't that strange?

[Delmonico]

Delmonico comes out of his office in a hurry, "folks I've been checkin' on things a bit and I found this."

  Walgren Lake State Recreation Area is located in Sheridan County Nebraska, five miles southeast of Hay Springs. All Boating is allowed on this lake, but is limited to 5 mile per hour no-wake limit. This is a very beautiful park with a long and colorful history.

  From the early 1880's to the late 1930's, when the lake was known as Alkalai Lake, there were rumors that the lake contained a sea monster. Several famous authors from Mari Sandoz to John Maher wrote stories and accounts of the sightings of the monster. One of John Maher's articles was printed in the London Times.

  The lake has approximately 100 surface acres of water. The Nebraska State Game and Parks Commission lists Walgren lake as containing Bluegill, Bullheads, Crappie, Largemouth Bass, Walleye and Yellow Perch. All sea monsters are listed by the state game and parks to be catch and release only.

  Facilities at the lake include a wheelchair accessible fishing pier, boat ramp, primitive camping, picnic sites, and restrooms.

"This is along the route I gave Trinity to the Blackhills, Trinity, don't go near the lake on yer runs to the Black hills, if this thing gets yer hooch, no thellin' what might happen."

I must do some more study.   Delmonico returns to his office, his rye bread being baked.

"I'd like ta see someone make a roat boat go 5 miles/hour." 

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Back when I was young and cute and adept, my sister's and I easily had Madeline, the canoe, going more than 5 MPH. Before my sailboat died of lead poisoning, it was difficult to keep it from going over 5 MPH. She wanted to race!



AnnieLee, who thinks Slim didn't like her Bangpine pic.
