Top Marks To The Porch

What a great story. I can say that this is one of the finest forums around because of the fine gents that frequent it.
Thanks for sharing.
 
Very cool to see. If only everyone was as kind in other parts of our life as they are here on the forums...
 
.....the warm glow from this forum makes the world a much smaller place.......:thumbup:

very cool, thanks for sharing, I love old stuff, I'm to indiscriminate to have much taste but I do appreciate being shown the finer things by those who know...I probably would have put the quarter in a coke machine without ever knowing...but, of course, friendship is the finer thing indeed
 
That's a Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaal nice old Boker you gifted Jack - Paul.
Like Jack says, a Jack is such the perfect knife, and to have a lovely beauty like that gifted is just amazing.

Two VERY special people here, Paul and Jack you are both Legends, thank you both for hanging around in these here parts ( tipping the hat ).
 
Y'know what I like best about the porch?
You guys have expressed the exact same sentiments that I also feel.
Which leaves me free for a bit of fatuous ,puerile humour.

So I imagine a noble frontiersman ,lets call him Jock, walking into the local Sheffield trading post armed with his trusty twin Bullnoses.
Two desperado fur trappers are inside.They are boozed up on rough frontier whisky.
When the door creaks open they cease and stare at the newcomer.
"Weel look'ee here! Its Mr chain lightnin' hisself" slurs one.
"Now I ain't lookin' fer no trouble boys." says Jock in his best Josey Wales voice," Barkeep,Jest gimme a big cee-gar fer Christmas."
"Watch 'im Zeke! he's meaner 'n a Rattler 'n twice as quick with them Bullnoses." says the other starting to panic and drawing out a massive Booey knife from a buckskin fringed sheath.
The two toughs rise intent on the bounty money. The furniture gets shoved aside and menacingly they start towards Jock. The first is cut down. A hail of razor sharp vintage coins embedded in his skull using the ninja shuriken technique.
"Why you dirty, lowdown Coyote...." bellows the other advancing on Jock in a blind rage.When, at that very moment, a large male Bison recently escaped from Sheffield Zoological gardens bursts through the wall of the store and tramples the trapper in a terrifying tornado of horn and hoof,turns and trots towards town.(and thats the best alliteration you'll get in this thread.)
Jock calmly picks up his cigar from the counter,slips it in his top pocket,tips his hat to the barkeep who manages to stutter "Who's gonna pay fer all this damage 'n sech mister?"
Jock turns back.
"I reckon the bull knows. Why don't yer ask him?"
 
Yes me too -i especially like the way I managed to get GEC bullnoses ,Jack and an escaped bull bison all in about 10 lines in an Outlaw Josey Wales format.
 
meako,
Great Story, You have a VIVID imagination.
I will come back to your post to read it a few times.
Jack, I mean " Jock " will have to tell us about how he enjoyed his Christmas cee-gar.
 
LOL! :D

Thanks for that Meako! :)

And for everything my friend :) :thumbup:

(Got tears rolling down my face here! :D )
 
Good! Oh and BTW any similarities between the characters portrayed and any real persons living or deceased are purely coincidental.
Also no animals were injured or killed in the making of the story.
If you haven't already done so (and I'd like a show of hands) go watch "The Outlaw Josey Wales". or better still read the book "GoneToTexas" by Forrest Carter.
