Oddities and Humor

This one is an example of how stories grow in the telling.

I hadn't heard of this until yesterday, when someone told me about a tug boat that actually went over the falls.

Joe wanted to buy a Harley motorcycle. He doesn't have much luck, until one day, he comes across a Harley with a 'for sale' sign on it.

The bike looks better than a new one, although it is 10 years old. It's shiny and in mint condition.

He buys it and asks the seller how he kept it in such great condition for 10 years.

'Well, it's quite simple,' says the seller, 'whenever the bike is outside and it's gonna rain, rub Vaseline on the chrome.It protects it from the rain, and he
hands Joe a jar of Vaseline.

That night, his girlfriend, Sandra, invites him over to meet her parents.
Naturally, they take the bike there.

Just before they enter the house, Sandra stops him and says, 'I have to
tell you something about my family.

'When we eat dinner, we don't talk.

In fact, the FIRST person who says anything during dinner has to do the dishes.'

'No problem,' he says.. And in they go.

Joe is shocked.Right in the middle of the living room is a huge stack of dirty dishes.

In the kitchen is another huge stack of dishes. Piled up on the stairs, in the corridor, everywhere he looks dirty dishes.

They sit down to dinner, and sure enough, no one says a word.

As dinner progresses, Joe decides to take advantage of the situation.

He leans over and kisses Sandra.

No one says a word.

He reaches over and fondles her breasts. Nobody says a word.

So he stands up, grabs her, rips her clothes off, throws her on the table
and screws her, right there in front of her parents.

His girlfriend is a little flustered, her dad is obviously livid and her mom horrified when he sits back down, but no one says a word.

He looks at her mom. She's got a great body too.

Joe grabs mom, bends her over the table, pulls down her panties, and screws her every which way but loose
right there on the dinner table.

She has a big orgasm, & Joe sits down.

His girlfriend is furious, her dad is boiling, & Mom is beaming from ear to ear. But still ... . Total silence.

All of a sudden there is a loud clap of thunder, and it starts to rain.

Joe remembers his bike, so he pulls the jar of Vaseline from his pocket.

Suddenly the father shouts.
I'll do the fuckin’ dishes!!

I don't think he's funny, he's a little desperate for attention.

I don't either which is what puts me off, because Plebs is so good, and he'll ruin it.

Grumio, the slave, makes it.

Not available in good ole US of A.
but this is

That character has changed. He was a co worker now he's an employee. They've gone from working in an office to owning a dive bar. And one of the main characters dies and is replaced by the person who accidently kills him.

I haven't investigated this story, but find it odd enough to post here.

You're a cowboy Ed, you might like this.

As it happens, I am attempting to finish my western novel.

Let us know if you do, I like a good western.

Oh. Does it have to be good?

It has to be great.

It's been a long time since i read a western novel.
I read a few Zane Grey back in the day. Yes that long ago.

That's a novel with ham, scallions, and green bell peppers?

Plenty of ham, no doubt.

Zane Grey - great writer, great man. I like various western writers. I've read most of the Sackett novels. I greatly respect Walter Van Tilburg Clark. My top favorite is Max Brand, with his Silvertip series.
