    Well that’s what happens when you play the big room at the Flamingo. Although I thought that was Pat Boone’s gig.

    Jeff-Once you get a horse you will learn more about yourself than you can imagine. Ask Tony Soprano.

  4. I have heard of rapture in this context, but I have never heard of existential rupture.

    Sorry, pal. The whole “I don’t dance” thing is what got you replaced. Everybody loves to watch a horse dance.

    Norman? Is that you?…

  9. It is a disgusting thing to see a man confess to a yen to be among large furred and sweating flanks. A disgusting thing. And yet, not without its fascinations

    Possibly an ancestor of Norman, Mom. See Chapter 1 of Gulliver’s Travels: “Soon after my Return from Leyden, I was recommented by my good Master, Mr. Bates, to be Surgeon to the Swallow…But my good Master Bates dying in two Years after, and I having few Friends, my business began to fail…”

    No, Harvey, it’s not so wrong.

  13. Ray Eckhart says:

    Now, going off to Mexico to live with La Puta – that would be wrong.

  14. McGehee says:

    So wrong, and thanks for arr the fish.

    Hey, when you’re surrounded by Yahoos, you get your comfort where you can.
