OK.

Here's the story of the gorilla in the bar where I was shooting pool...

Are you sure I haven't told this story before?

Well,

OK,

Here it is....

Late one afternoon I was "cleaning the tables" before the "college crowd" came in.

(Perhaps I've told the story of my Pop and I hustlin' pool?)

In Lawrence, KS.
Home of the Jayhawks.....

Oh...yeah...go jayhawks...

I attended classes there once.....
even tried out for the Baseball team...
(That' a whole 'nother story....)
{from a LONG time ago}

My Buddy Jim was at the bar. (behind the bar, the bartender, an employee)

I had just got a pitcher from him when the drunk Gorilla waked in.

Our eyes met and he stormed to me, snarling and full of anger....

He accused me of being with his wife....

He said that he was going to kill me.

Folks,

That's code words for, "Really?"

He grabbed a pool cue and swung it at me.
I turned my back and the pool stick shattered on my back.....

As he rushed me, I grabbed a pool ball, I think it was either the 2 ball or 12 ball,

and mashed it into his forehead.

Well, he fell like a sack of taters and the blood gushed.


My Buddy Jim Said,
"Get your a$$ out the back before the cops come and I didn't see anything."

Have I been to a bar since?

Maybe.....

Best,

Scott

At the time,
It was just another day.....A Tuesday?

Ya know,

I appear "tough" only 'cause I am.



I've had a rough life...

Some have, in the past, questioned my "toughness."

They have paid.

Dearly.....

I''m not the tough guy you would see in any movie...

I'm the Guy who was there, in a bunker, during the "Cold War,"
at 10-15 degrees below freezing.

For days.

And nights.......

{This is about all that I'm authorized in stating.....}

Made me strong as an American with a vote.

Oops!

Too much politics?

HA!

Too Damn Bad.

I and many others paid the price for you to vote....

DO IT!

Think about how you vote!​

He and I "went for a ride" when I met him for the first time.....

I'm always around but I'm leaving Saturday for our cruise with the boys!! Actually leaving tomorrow to get away from the house and " some people" headed to San Juan, Nassau, StThomas and Grand Turk. Been paying for this cruise for about a year, finally paid for and looking forward to every day of it! It's a family reunion with my wife's family. I actually like my outlaws! Think of it, someone else provides the cooking, cleaning, and entertainment. Might have one more obstacle to cross tomorrow or tonight, pray he don't show and he's a man of his word!
Later Critters, I think I hear Jimmy Buffet in the background .......,
