I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Bad luck and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
Merle Travis
"16 Tons"

"16 Tons"
It has always cracked me up that Merle Travis wrote "16 Tons" and "Dark as a Dungeon," two of the greatest American folk songs, on deadline, getting ready for a recording session the next day. I bring it up here because today is my birthday! That's right, I'm 28 years young! And if you believe that, you'll also believe that I wrote "16 Tons!" Actually, I'm 55 and do, indeed, owe my soul to the company store.
My Sweetie gave me a really cool "Day of the Dead" mask from Mexico and a pair of world-class motorcycle boots from Caboots.com. Tonight we're going to eat sushi. I feel obligated to buy myself a gun, since I always buy myself a gun on my birthday. I'm still stuck in a single action mode, so I'm thinking either the Ruger Blackhawk 50th Anniversary special edition Flattop .357 or one of the Ruger short-barreled birdshead .45 Colts (and have Competitive Edge Gunworks fit it with a 5-shot cylinder so I can shoot Big Boomers in it).
It's even sunny, and the damn snow is melting!
