out 'bos and other ne'er-do-well drifters who happened to cross their rail yards.

A bull's job is never done

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/06/2017:  08:15:32

and he doesn't get a vacation..

That's why they stay ticked of and

Scaggs7 - Posted - 06/06/2017:  11:03:58

till he's about eight yrs old

I thied to cross a bull with a

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/06/2017:  14:52:06

rabid fox one time but the foaming mouth spooked the bull.

A beer without foam

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/07/2017:  03:37:55

isn't beer,,it's colored water.

We were playing at The High Street Lounge in Hillsboro,Ohio when one of the

OM45GE - Posted - 06/07/2017:  07:38:16

beer taps started spewing beer uncontrollably. 

The patrons climbed 

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/07/2017:  11:13:30

over the bar to help themselves.

Hey,,you can't blame them for

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/07/2017:  12:43:50

not looking a gift horse in the mouth.

Sam at the Long Branch

OM45GE - Posted - 06/07/2017:  14:39:57

thought it was all great fun and decided to have an open tap night every Thursday. 

Things went well until

Scaggs7 - Posted - 06/07/2017:  16:36:15

this banjo player from the south and one from the north decided to get involved

Trying to be civil is just too

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/07/2017:  17:23:23

boring for those types with civil war memories.

A blue and gray Cadillac

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/07/2017:  17:59:58

doesn't go over so good in the south..

But a blue and gray Lincoln would be

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/08/2017:  12:12:53

the cat's meow in Illinois.

Continental breakfasts

Scaggs7 - Posted - 06/08/2017:  17:36:29

went well this morning at Chuckles when Annie showed up

That's a good banjo tune

OM45GE - Posted - 06/08/2017:  18:16:30

if only we knew any banjo players.

The last one I was acquainted with 

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/08/2017:  18:28:54

got run over by a semi...."accidentally" so the newspaper reported.

Many banjoists remain in cognito

OM45GE - Posted - 06/08/2017:  18:33:18

because they're not allowed in the house.

However, cognito isn't all that bad once

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/08/2017:  18:40:16

you become acclimated to the weather and culture.

Many expats

OM45GE - Posted - 06/09/2017:  02:40:37

live in cognito only part of the year. 

The rest of the time they stay in the state of 

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/09/2017:  03:41:16

out cognito.

Out cognito is the safest because

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/09/2017:  06:58:10

their border wall is 50' high, with armed guards stationed at 60' intervals.

The banjo players practice their intervals

OM45GE - Posted - 06/09/2017:  08:56:13

in soundproof rooms after several viscous attacks by banjo hating residents.

The safety is illusory however, because

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/09/2017:  11:37:09

everyone is legally deaf.

So if you have something to say you'll have to

OM45GE - Posted - 06/09/2017:  12:12:21

either say it with Hallmark Cards or say it really, really loud.

That gets tiresome

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/09/2017:  18:23:44

so we often resort to smoke signals.

If you ever run across a tobacco farmer

OM45GE - Posted - 06/09/2017:  18:31:15

be sure to say hello from the American Cancer Society. 

It will be interesting 

Scaggs7 - Posted - 06/09/2017:  18:50:07

to see smoke signals coming from a tobacco base

The only time i ever

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/10/2017:  01:56:37

smoked was when Dad wasn't around.

I stopped smoking in 1971 because

OM45GE - Posted - 06/10/2017:  04:49:54

I realized it was the cigarettes that smoked and I was just the sucker. 

Smoking also made me

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/10/2017:  06:19:20

start coughing and kept me broke.

Then you have the "know-it -all" folks that

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/10/2017:  09:02:03

tell you to take a second job to support your habits.

My ambition dried up

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/10/2017:  15:12:12

when I got married.

She chewed tobacco so I had

OM45GE - Posted - 06/12/2017:  02:58:16

tobacco juice on my shoes and  the floor was always sticky. 

She said if I didn't like it I could 

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/12/2017:  05:04:13

mop the floor.

So I just started chewing tobacco and she

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/12/2017:  05:47:34

placed wall-to-wall spittoons all over the house.

My dog ran off

OM45GE - Posted - 06/12/2017:  07:33:18

in disgust saying, I may sniff other dogs' butts, but that is gross.

He had a point, but I was amazed that

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/12/2017:  08:32:31

he would leave without saying good bye.

Maybe he'll come back and

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/12/2017:  11:20:49

chew up my favo(u)rite slippers.

But Crabby Cecil, the dog catcher,

OM45GE - Posted - 06/12/2017:  17:32:00

may get him first.

If he does, it will cost me

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/13/2017:  01:39:54

Thirty bucks.

He's really not worth it but

OM45GE - Posted - 06/13/2017:  02:40:47

he's the only one who knows how to change the toner cartridge on the printer. 

Considering he lacks opposable thumbs, 

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/13/2017:  04:29:27

he is pretty handy to have around the house and shop.

On second thought I don't want

OM45GE - Posted - 06/13/2017:  05:15:42

be responsible for another living being.

I have enough trouble just

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/13/2017:  07:04:10

taking care of me,myself,and I.

It would seem as though there are three of us but we

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/13/2017:  08:04:08

are actually a three-headed monster ,the result of eating genetically modified trout.

One of these days

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/13/2017:  10:14:24

I'll have two of my heads removed.

But untill then I have to

OM45GE - Posted - 06/14/2017:  02:59:21

put up with the constant bickering. 

They argue 

chuckv97 - Posted - 06/14/2017:  08:12:59

amongst themselves constantly ,complaining of bad breath and dandruff.

Multi-tasking, however, is

banjoscotty - Posted - 06/14/2017:  13:08:10

no problem for the three of us.

We have trouble reading each
