"Honkey Tonk Angel" wails in the background. No troubles here, slam another one down. Choir's all robed up and Pete's rattling keys. If I had some sense I'd be hitting my knees. I ain't got no time and damn little patience; I ain't got no reasons and damn-all excuses. Let's dance with the cowboys and buy Jesus a round. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Damn straight, Nan, and Jesus might join you two later for a round of . . . You know . . . Jesus love . . . Gawd, that brought back memories of Virginia and Dallas. ~*~ When they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

Thanks, jjote and marchmadness. It's more on the order of 'As long as we're dying, let's have another round'. I've only honky-tonked a few times in my life. It's fun. Of course, I may have a different view than the other people in the crowd, since I don't drink alcohol, but I don't need it to get high on the music and the laughter. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
