Irish joins Slim for breakfast, still picking little pieces of tar off his person.

Delmonico · January 31, 2006, 06:39:04 PM

'Bout dark, Delmonico rides in with a bunch of Double Eagles and an empty wagon, with Trinity passed out in the back.

No tar or feathers are on either.

Trinity · January 31, 2006, 07:22:28 PM

Trinity wakes up in the back of the waggon and tries to remember what happened. He vaguely remembers chopping the head off of the snake and cooking the snake and the mouse while tha stranger pulled the cork on his last jug. Sometime after that, Trinity remembers being in the middle of Mexico with Ozark Tracker standing next to a strange contraption and a bunch of Federales closing in. Everything is black after that.

Trinity gets out of the waggon and goes to the house. Inside he finds Del and suddenly more memory (or is it hallucination?) returns "Ya got any bear sign ready?"

<<how's that for mixing stories?>>

"Nope, but we sold all the Veggie Liquior and they want more, Slim and Tom don't understand marketing. I just tossed you in the wagon and took you to town, told them that is what they would end up looking like if they drank corn likker.

Told them that wouldn't happen drinking veggie likker."

Trinity · January 31, 2006, 07:47:20 PM

"Wail if'n that's all what's 'vailable, kin Ah have a little Leek Likker, please? <<under his breath>> 'morry Ahm gonna have ta go back to tha stranger's an' git some corn out of his crib an' git started on the new batch!"

Delmonico · January 31, 2006, 07:50:34 PM

"Well you'll have to find yer corn stash, I sold all the veggie likker, unlike Tom and Slim, Tom should no better than let Slim get him in trouble also. That's all Slim does is to get himself into fixes and I have to rescue him. Like now, I bought him some turpintine to take off the tar."

"Ah reckon Ah orta not stand here with this burnin' candle then, huh?"

Too late the turpentine vapors find the canle and whoosh Trinity's eyebrows disappear in a sudden flash of light and heat!

litl' rooster now a week in his Bomb shelter, feels no rumbling of Steam Traction Mo chines or the rattlin' of jugs in a wagon. Decides to look out side, The smell of burning hair and the black goo and feathers on the ground send shivers up his spine. >Was Chicken little right? the Sky was Falling< desides that dooms day must be near and saddles his horse and heads to Dunning.

Suddenly the windows on the house rattle a bit for no reason, everyone looks around. Delmonico hollors "Earthquake."

(Author's note, there was a 2.9 about 8 am this morning about 50 miles from where the ranch would be.)

Delmonico · February 02, 2006, 07:04:46 PM

(Authors note" Nebraska has several faults that shake from time to tim, but are small, the one yesterday has one every year or so about the same level, and the fault don't even have a name.

)

litl rooster · February 03, 2006, 03:45:47 AM

author's question> is the fault centered near the "Ranch with No Name"?

Lucky Irish Tom · February 03, 2006, 05:55:07 AM

arthur's note:> If it is we should call it Slim's fault!

After Slim stops screamin', he goes to his room and changes his pants. He, then, comes back down and takes the mop from Del's out-stretched arm. He proceeds to cleanup his mess.

<Authors Note: About 40-50 miles NNE of the ranch, neat Ainsworth. I like that, might have to contact UNL Geological Division and see about naming it. Makes me wonder how many other little faults around the country have no name. Perhaps just like theat naming a star thing you could pay to have a geological fault named after someone.
