Conversations with Carnies

33 - Gods
42 - Damns
21 - Shit Yeahs
12 - Son'a'bitchs
9 - Fucks
36 - Whores

All within a 5 minute conversation with two out of work carnies in the Peace Surplus parking lot.

I was too busy counting to remember much of the actual conversation. I think they were asking for money, but I soon got them sidetracked on a story about a hooker with three nipples in San Fran.

*UPDATE*
Happy winter solstice. The days only get longer and the nights only shorter from here.....

*UPDATE 2*
Inspiration for this post was due to Ivan Doig's Mountain Time and Bob Marshall's journal in that book. Amazon has it here.

Looks like a cool book...put it in the shopping cart at Amazon.
Did you ever read "The Travels of Jamie McPheeters"?
Somehow I think you would enjoy it.....written in the '50's I think.

You actually counted the number of words. Jesus. You need to be sued man.

I am surprised you did not count the fags. There is nothing wrong with being gay. I am a gay cowboy and a gay firestarter.
