100 day Snake & Egg.... Fact or Fiction?
The 100 day Snake & Eggs………….
What happened?
Where did it go?
– I know I thought I saw it. But did I really??? Might it have been Déjà vu??? Was it really here???
Oh my God am I going as crazy as some people, like my wife to name only one, think I am?
I mean my first thought was;
Hooray, Hooray the 100 day Snake and Eggs. Finally………. This was the only thing that helped me make it through last winter.
Oh the thoughts it brought back; so many memories from a year ago.
This is where we were first given grammar lessons of ‘da so side way of speekin’
This is where we first learned of leader hosen followed quickly by the tails of panty hosen and eventually even ‘Drag Classes’.
We learned of kilts that fly in the breeze when cars are pushed to the speed at which they were intended to be driven!!!
We learned of children that secretly hoped their father just might have been the milkman.
If fact, those memories of the past, whether they be real or imaginary-----whether they be pseudo, psycho or holistic; those memories, inspired me again, to plagiarism.
So, if y’all are ready:
Listen my friends and you shall hear,
of the mid-day ride of one we hold dear.
On the 16th of April, in two thousand and five;
every man there is still alive
and remembers that famous day and year,
of the mid-day ride of one we hold dear.
He said to his son, “If the British cars ride
from Matteson town to-day,
Hang a lantern in ‘the barrel’ tower as a signal light,--
One if by red and two if by blue;
And I in the another color will be,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every middle-sized village; beyond the farm”.
Then he said “Good-day” and with a muffler roar,
Started the drive to the Gess Motor Store.
Just as the road rose over the hill,
he took note that the gauge no longer shown full.
There swinging to the shoulder he and the snake went
where the remainder of this day his time was spent.
Through all our history, and for the year just past,
This WCCC fact, always it would last.
In the hours of brightness and peril and need
the people did not waken to hear
the squeal of tire nor to see that noble sneer.
For on this mid-day there was no ride
of the one we hold dear.
NAME WITHHELD ON REQUEST
and for other obvious resons.

Wow Richie that was just awsome! I don't care, nor believe what the others say about you, it is obvious to me that you are a "literate servant",not an "idiot servant" very "Rainman" like. That story that is going around of you being kicked in the head by a mule down on the farm as a child is starting to make sense now. Though the story about the biker broad shooting out your tire at 100 mph still sounds just a little far fetched to me. More likely your tire blew out when you accidently ran over that vagrant homeless blind guy wearing sandles and peddle pusher pants and a straw sumbrero. The guy that was pushing a shopping cart full of empty beer and pop cans and looking for a place to spend the night. I'm just saying that because I read in the papers that they found traces of blue paint on the guy's head, neck, shoulders,stomach, arms,buttocks and front side of buttocks and on the under carraige of his shopping cart and we all noticed that 2" scratch on your right front fender!
So you might as well fess up and drop that motocycle -hudolum -shotgun -shootin nonsense and admitt to the "truth" as I see it.

Woflie,
Blue paint stains on the front side of the Buttock you say! Mmmm – interesting.
I am beginning to understand you ancestral outfits.
The need for the Leader-hosen to hold up the Panty-hosen and covering it all with Kilts. I understand if y’all have a front to your buttock.
Me, I come the South. It helps to explain the reason I am the way I am. As our family motto states, ‘we do not have too many branches on our family tree and proud of it’. As for the tail, only the boys have them. Most have it removed 8 days after being born. The ceremony is known as the ‘covenant of the circumstances’. Preformed under the Bliss induced by whiskey where-in the Mother proclaims ‘Mozel Tov it’s a boy’.
That reminds me of a joke.
Let’s see: A rabbi, a priest and the owner of a Red car go into a……. no, no, no I can tell that one here-- there is no way.
Okay, so first let me explain the mule story.
You see on the farm we use those 4 wheel drive ATV’s they are kind of like 4 wheel motor cycles. Well those ATV’s are also referred to as Mules. So one day I was walking along and this girl on the back of a ‘Mule’ whacked me right in the head. Some who witnessed the event said she use a baseball bat; others said she used a very long 2 by 4; other say she had the biggest,,, the biggest… the biggest feet they ever saw and she kicked me. So that is the other part of why I am the way I am.
Second, that guy that was looking for a place to spend the night; well he found it. That night he was in the room next to mine at the Hampton. What you describe as a shopping Kart was really an FFR Cobra that he was in the process of building. You described him as looking like a vagrant. Well, yea -- you know how the budgets on a build project simply explode. Those things you describe as being in his Kart were the parts that he had yet to install (except the empty beer cans. Those were empty beer cans.) As for the blue paint found on the undercarriage; simply paint samples he was considering.
I can not explain his outfit as you described it. Maybe he is from your native land?
(Also, remember, I know lots of Blind people and I would never hurt any of them).
Lastly, this all just goes to reinforce the motorcycle drag race story. She had biggest,,, the biggest… the biggest gun I ever saw. She used it to shoot out my tires. And that is the truth as I see it.

Wow Rich!!! I have to apoligize,I must have gotten the story all wrong, but you know how it goes,,,,,,,everybody adds a little or embelishess a little and before you know it it sounds like a totally different story!
So to clear up the story once and for all you stated that you left the "motorcyle dragqueen bar" and the he/she that followed you had the "biggest",,, "the Biggest",,,, "the biggest",, " the biggest",,,vaboooms you ever saw and thats when you accidently hit the crosseyed homeless guy and blew out your tires. Is that what you were trying to say in a round about way?
I thought so.

100 day snake & eggs?
Listen guys, heuvos (eggs) after a couple of days don't taste so good.
Much less waiting for 100 days?
I know because I have an uncle that would eat day old eggs, refried beans,
12 jalapenos, and a quart of beer every morning.
Believe it or not he is a welder, he probably doesn't need acetylene....
But anyway....
Shakespeare (Rich), when and where is this 100 day
culebra(snake) y heuvos (eggs) adventure supposed to take place?

Rich, I am not ashamed to admit that when I was reading that I had a tear in my eye. Not both, but still very moving. The way you put everything...awh it was beautiful man. Such understanding and depth of feeling. I could not.....
Gotta go, the cramps are coming back again.

Guys,
I was there and can vouch for Rich’s story that his tires were shot out by a motorcycle girl with gun. (I was following Rich in my car and were in route to Karr’s Mustang). Not only did this pistol packing motorcycle mommy have the biggest gun I every saw but she so ugly that her mommy gave her up for adoption at birth! And that’s really bad and the truth.

The truth?
Come on Frank,
A mortorcycle gun totin' Mama with big vabooms shot out Rich's tire?
Hey I've been shot at but, that was on the Ryan at 52nd street
from the projects. They shot out the window on the Escalade.
And that my friend IS a true story.
But statisticly speaking for as much as I travel around on the "sous si"
I guess getting shot at only once aint too bad?
So where and when is the big meet for 100 day snake and eggs again?
Oh no, don't tell me... not the "Sous Si"???
