    Asking people sarcastic questions like this one:
    Do you know why adults always ask little kids what do you wanna be when they grow up? They are looking for ideas about possible career choices themselves. HA! HA!

Now, Mr. Whiley always refers to himself in the 3rd person. Bob hates this. Bob loves that sort of thing. Also, another forum member, Blood ON The Tracks, informed me that a character on "Seinfeld" named "Jimmy" used this comedic device first.</div><div> </div><div>Why do I do this? Simple really. I always thought that speaking in the 3rd person is a great comical device to act as though a person is observing life's events from a distance above it all like a near death experience almost as if you are watching someone else live vicariously through you. In a nutshell, I am paying homage to Bob & Jimmy because I have a fondness for brilliant comedians that make you think & are kind of like the protest singers of my generation George Carlin, Bill Maher etc. etc.</div>

  1. Today in my travels, this old cowpoke was assisted by 3 individuals named Dalton, Colt, & a very pretty woman named Cheyenne...I'm not sure what all the Western symbolism means exactly, but if I come across a guy named Dusty next who offers me a shot of whiskey & a horse does that indicate a "Happy Trails" ride into the sunset? I'm just curious...Thoughts?

      You can be my cook anytime Brent & it would be fun to ride the wild prairie with all my friends. Good point 100GFB! We might need a slick card player to win some money to fix a broken wagon wheel or repair a horseshoe or 2 along the way. The more the merrier I always say. We might even see the "Sheriff" in Denver too. Hey Peyton. :)

      What am I talking about? Nothing that important really just that SW1 figured that it was comedically ironic than I ran into 3 people in 1 day with cowboy western sounding names. I mean what are the odds of that within a 4 hour span? It's pretty remote I would imagine. BTW, I like Westerns too & I watch them on TV all the time. :D
