Daily Grin August 29
Another week is about to begin. It is already looking as though I will be able to take Friday off. If so, that will make for a four day weekend! yay!! I'll be very busy for the next two days, then I'll play catch up for two more and then it will be Friday already.
Our weather is supposed to improve some this week. We have been chillin' with temps in the 60's and might actually get into the 70's for a few days this week. Maybe the rain will let up too. I guess anything is possible, right?
oh... and thanks for not noticing that I had the date mixed up again! lol
Enjoy the week (and the Grin)!! J

Southern Word of the Day
Rainch - A big cow farm
~~~
A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen.
He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.
"Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?" he yelled forcefully.
No one answered.
"All right, I'm gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain't back outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don't like to have to do what I dun in Texas!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post.
He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, before you go, what happened in Texas?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."
