[Leo Tanner]

Thanks fer enhancin the flakes Pop. 

Clear an cool here.  Roo if there is nothing wrong with cold pizza at 7 am there is certainly nothing wrong with roast beef and taters.

[Silver Creek Slim]

I think that we need to sit on Del and pour some castor oil down his throat. It will either kill ya or cure ya!

[Silver Creek Slim]

anyone put new cobbs at the cosie privy?

[Delmonico]

Well I'm feeling better but them two is in even bigger trouble, Rita has it.  When she gets a hold of them they are in for big trouble.

[Leo Tanner]

Guess I have ta go on the lamb.  I suggest you do the same buck.

Thanks for the Cawfee.  Making up some hash browns an eggs over easy.

Made another corned beef last night.  Lil through in the taters an carrots again so there is plenny left over for sammiches this afternoon.  I know Pop will be on board fer that.

[Delmonico]

Guess I have ta go on the lamb. 

I knew you were just a cowardly sheep.

[Leo Tanner]

I knew you were just a cowardly sheep.

I wasn't worried about you, but ya mentioned a woman scorned.  We all know how that works out.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Guess I better get going, I don't run very fast

Leo, did you ever find the source of that hum/buzz? You can add Selmer horns to the list of they don't make'em anymore. As of 1-1-11, the French side of Selmer discontinued assembly of brass instruments. prices on the original Olds horns, at least from the Specials on up through the Super Recordings continue to rise

[Leo Tanner]

Buck, I realized that the power strip I was plugged into had the ground prong removed.  I'm going to start there and if it still does it I'm going to pull the main plate of the back and check all the connections.  The pots are a little scratchy so I might be in for a little more work and $$$.  It pays to buy quality components for these things.  I can't believe Selmer is gone.  Most of the rentals the other kids used in band were Selmers.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

That's the French Selmer, Leo. Not sure what Conn-Selmer is going to do( American side). The shut down affects sax's, the Selmer TT trumpets, and a few other pro-grade trumpets they made, and probably the brass woodwinds( flutes, picc's). The fella that ran the Olds operation during the glory years is in business for himself( Zig Kanstul), and is making some really good horns in California yet................Buck

[Delmonico]

Fires banked, coffee's on before Leo does it, I'm going to bed, been editing pictures.

[Delmonico]

I seen ya doin' it Leo, I just jumped in and beat ya to it.  I'm may be old, but I'm quick at times.

[Leo Tanner]

Curse you Del, you is too quick fer me.  I was postin the Cawfee an headed to the rack.  Have a good sleep, I could use one maself.

[Texas Lawdog]

Leo, Del makes better Cawfee than you do, especially the Turkish kind. He and I always have some Turkish when we camp out. I got some sausage bisquits to go with the Cawfee.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

MMMMMMMMM, sausage biscuits. goes with coffee right nice.

28 here, light snow mixed with possible freezing rain. YUK!

[Silver Creek Slim]

Morning y'all.
Thanks fer the coffee and grub, pards.

'Tis zero and overcast. "Mostly cloudy with isolated snow showers. Highs 15 to 20. Light and variable wind." Full moon tonight.

[Leo Tanner]

Can't complain bout a sausage biscket this mornin.  Been awhile since I had one, but now you got me thinkin about it.  Used ta have one every mornin while I was gettin ready to go ta school.

Clear an cold taday, winders er frosted over. 

[Delmonico]

It's happened, Rita has took the dive off the edge, I'm going to stop on the way to work and see if I can find a straight jacket that fits.

Just knocked over some papers on the desk, on one written in magic marker it says:

If you can under stand this copy and paste to you.

 I'm going to slip it on her and tie the arms before I ask.

[Leo Tanner]

Gee Del, you must be the first man in history ta have a crazy wife.  I keep mine medicated so there is no need fer the jacket.  I was gonna move us on down ta Stepford but this stuff seems ta work.

[Arcey]

My best ta the both ya, Del.


Been dog sick since Saturday. Ain’t the belly thing. Whatever tiz I’ll be glad when it leaves….



This rookie killin’ is troublin’. Maybe sumthin’ will come out at the afternoon’s press conference. I guess it’ll be the truth, third version

Bet you wish you was back in IA Arcey.  That stuff used to happen in the military before the regulations got tightened up.  It's just sad, my thoughts to his family.
