greetings waltripians,

brief beau here, in his briefs, with a brief announcement!!! Speaking of Hippie hollow, I use to go around 75 76 77 78 around in there! Had me a phi beta kappa girlfriend that lived in austin, for real and true, that liked to hang out there!!! So what the heck, I was always game for nekidness back in them good ol nekid days!!!!   people there, are serious about their nekidness!!! Well, it is serious bidness! Must a been some o them hippie hollow people that Rich LH sawr in DC!

Baby sittin today!!! My best bud, "special K oop" is sick! Methinks a sensitive stomach! He gets this way oncet or twicet a year! goes on all day, and sometimes two days, which makes it seem like more than it really is!! We are resting comfortably on the couch! Me and Coop, and every kritter that lives with us!!! Jack is in the chair next to the couch, and Oliver is in my lap, peach iis on the arm next to me, and lacy is on the arm next to "special K oop" and Annie bob is on the coffee table staring at K oop and then at me. Got a house full O nurses!!! He seems to be better now...mehopes!!!!  He ran around frantic in the back yard looking for grass to eat, then "sell a buick" (throw up) you know, BUUUUUIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK BLEAH, as in buick!!!

I was hoping I could get some lunch for myownself, if I could get this wooly mammoth off me!!! He must be feeilng coopers pain, cause he has a death grip on my leg, which is making ME feel his pain!

Kay, life has its moments. I could adjust to that lifestyle very easily but it's really not better than meeting good friends at Fudd's. I do think if I was as well prepared as Beau always is I would have at least had a good set of binoculars with me. I remember years ago hearing David Letterman (when he was just a guest on the Tonight Show) talk about he and his dog Bob had just moved to the beach and it happened to be near the nude beach. He thought it would be great viewing. His comment was,that most of the people there shouldn't be allowed to naked in the shower much less on the beach. I'd imagine that is what you'd run into at Hippy Hollow  or your neighborhood nudist colony.

It accepted what I wrote...will wonders never cease!

Hey Rich LH and or anyone else that had been enquireing about a good eatery; Don Teos over by waltrip! It use to be Monterey house, the same people that were at MH are still at Don Teos! the gratchamolie is still as good as it was when the MH was up on 43rd and Oak Forest! Same guy that made it then, is still making it!!! It is just good texmex food, nothing fancy, just good, my main requirement! I have eaten oncet at Red Onion, and I hate that place! food not for eating, just for looking at! DONT GET TOO CUTE WITHT THE FOOD...

rode pegasus through the heights; Remember Bob Mcdougal sewing machine place??? He is still there! I think since 1946! My wife bought a SM from him! He is on Yale and 13th!

Remember MODEL BOOT SHOP???? use to be right across the street and next to Reagan State Bank! That was one of the places my dad and I would stop in at on our sojourn into Saturday errands!!!  Been gone for, I dont know when they ceased to be, 20 years ago???

Ok, I'm pushing my luck here with typing more than what I' am alloted...

since i have a few more days until memorial day;i will introduce you to a marine that exemplified the corps.his name was ltcol joseph muir.i left him out of the list of marines killed from june-sept 1965;he and his radio-man were killed by the same booby trap(an ied consisting of 5 155mm artillary rounds straped together and burried on a ridge above happy valley at da nang) i dont remember the name of his radioman,he was attached to btn.hq.and i hardly knew any of those guys but col muir was the btn.commander.he was advised more than once to keep a low profile but continued to go into the field with his troops.that is the kind of leader he was.i was down below the ridge filling my canteen from a stream when i heard the explosion;looking up,all i saw was a gyser of white marble filling the air;its hard to explain what high explosives do but the fact that only his watch and part of his wrist were found gives a clue.this was a man with 3 days left in vietnam.operation 'piranna' was his last  operation and had taken us to danang to support the 7th marine regiment.it was also his last day.after september there were not enough of us to make a btn. and we were separated and sent indidually to other units.i was sent back up to danang to join 'c' 1/9 (the walking dead)the remnants of two regiments of v.c. from chu lai stood up on 1/9 and never let up.i dont remember the names of the killed while with 1/9 but i remember hearing the bullit hit will and remember us putting him on the helicopter,i never found out if he died or not.later,1/9 suffered more causualties than any other marine unit.i was happy to be home after i left in february of 66 but suffered loss as i watched my old company get cut up-on the news.those were bad times and if nothing else,remember this memorial day.these were real people,fighting a real war,no matter what you call it or how you feel about it.for the time and for all tradition;we did what we had to do.

Just moved command central hq from one side of the library to the other! 10 ft makes a big difference in reception with my wireless! My beloved is asleep, and when she wakes up, voila, library moved around~ I think she will like it though! I do, kinda, sorta...

just watched a program on the learning channel about the top 10 dinners in america!!!

Number 3 was Arkies in austin, tx!!! Gonna have to fly over there on pegasus! It has been there since the 40s! I practically lived in Austin from 75 to 78, and never remember seeing it! Been to the Holiday house; Christies; and Nighthawk, and all points inbetween. The best chinese food was at the China Palace, but it burned. Dont remember if they rebuilt it or not! Their egg drop soup was exquisite!!! there was a place on a hill on one of the main roads, called The Feedlot, that was excellent!!! There was one of those taco wagons over by town lake and 6th st, somewhere around there, that was great!!!

Makes me want to open up a Dinner!!!! I have a double phone booth and juke box for it. All I need is the money to start it up, that and about a couple a hundred of youse youts from waltripopolis to help run it! I can cook breakfast some, but am too slow! I do make good coffee!!! If we could open up in a small town outside of Harris county, or outside of the city limits, I think we could avoid a lot of the BS that local municipalities place on all bidness! As much money that small bidnesses bring in to the economies of cities and counties and states and Kremlin, DC., they throw more obstacles in front of a small bidness, almost like they want them to just go away, or fail or both!

Whatta ya think???? anyone anyone...we could call it WALTRIPIANS DINER...EH??? EH??? Well, yall sleep on it and we discuss it during our upcoming meetings...better close for now, I am probably approaching "the point of diminishing returns" "fail safe" "critical mass" in my typing...

Now talk about similar coincidencies....the other night I dreamed about re-doing an old place 1 mi. out of Anderson...it is horribly run down and under-utilized, but a good location and a kitchen.  During the day it has old domino players.  Anyway I turned it into a real showplace and named it "The Last Ditch"  as in the old "Let's ditch this place" verbage of the '60s.  Don't ask me why I dreamed this, I don't even go there.  The owner, Mark works at Brookshire Bros. as a meat cutter and leases it out to an old couple, the place is now called Mark's Outpost.  Since Anderson is attracting money from Houston and few places to eat locally, it could become a prime business.  Hmmmmmm.

Hey Burge, thanks for the information, sobering to think what you went through and glad you made it. OOOhrah!

On the other hand  - check this out on Waltrip 65 and although the message didn't copy, it is about TC Jester park being renovated, maybe your diner will be located there.  Anyway ain't Jenn cute!

Beau Wann, Jr.

HEY KAY,  talk about your coinkidinks, I had that very same dream!!! About you fixin the place up for all us waltripians to gather and have coffee and stuff. Man, great minds think alike!!!!

heres a trivia question for youse youts; Who sang the theme song for Paladin????    I know who it is, but do youse guys??? Just happened to see an old Paladin last night, and an old Gunsmoke with Chester in it! Man, those old shows were soooo dumb sometimes! The dialog didnt make much sense!!! This one also had Burt Reynolds as the blacksmith, _____???  Do youse know who they wanted to play Matt Dillon??? But he recommended James Arness instead, and on the very first episode, the aforementioned but not mentioned, made the introduction of Gunsmoke and James Arness.

I just happen to have every episode of Paladin on VHS! Made the mistake of ordering two tapes a dozen or more years ago, cause there had been no reruns, so I thought Id get a couple! It was like one of those record of the month clubs, yall know the ones I mean, I belonged to all of em at one time!!!" BUY 1 RECORD AND GET A MILLION FREE", generally was how the ad went!!! Anyway, I thought there werent many Paladin shows, but as it turned out there were a zillion, AND I HAVE EM ALL!!!! Needless to say, I dont have first say on buying stuff like that, that turns perpetual!!!

I have the very first Paladin, and also the one where Richard Boone becomes inherits the "Paladin" name and persona to go with it!!! Do you know who played Paladin in that episode that passes it on  to Richard boone???? Now as luck would have it, I think I remember the last name, and not the first name. Ok, I have probably used my alloted time before "critical Mass" point of no return, shuffled off to buffalo...

Burge, thanks to you and all others who served. If I remember correctly Thomas Jefferson said that the price of freedom  is the ocassional shedding of patriots blood. That's probably not exact but it is a pretty close. I think it is unfortunately accurate. Even if our current Board of Education doesn't think TJ was one of the world's enlightened thinkers. Glad you survived Burge. Sorry you had to endure it.

The project Kay is referring to is pretty impressive. The City has already spent $150,000 to add a new dog park to T. C. Jester Park. For those of you who don't live or visit the hood, T. C. Jester Park has been steadily improved over the years and is really used a lot by the citizens. This new make over project Jennie mentioned in her post involves redoing the pool, new showers, restrooms, parking lot and a new amphitheater. According to the Leader $1.6 million will be spent on the project. Pretty impressive!

DOD, did Marty Robbins sing the theme song?


05/25/10 04:18 PM #2690    

 

Beau Wann, Jr.

Nope, not even close! The song was written by Richard Boone, and Sam Rolfe and the guy who sang it...Johnny Western!!! I kid you not! What a great name, kinda fits eh!!!! the man that played the originator of the paladin role, called "Smoke" was none other than Richard Boone, complete with white hair and no stache. this was the last episode of the first season! Big whoop!!! Well, its a slow day, and my brain is...just gone! rode pegasus, and was good whilst I rode, but back home, funky!!!

Well ok...bye

Richard Meek '65

Well no wonder I didn't know it. . . .I've never heard of Johnny Western!

Beau if your brain is gone.  . . .just bring it back. A little time on the swing with John Boy and cup of Joe will fix you right up.  By the way.  . . have you ever ridden Pegasus over The Devil's Backbone west of San Marcos? It's a very beautiful strectch of road!


05/25/10 08:42 PM #2692    

 

Beau Wann, Jr.

No, I havent had the pleasure of riding the devils backbone! There was talk from some of the folks I have ridden with, about going on a tour of Texas for a couple of weeks! Not seem to happen now! I need a break, so I think I will strike out on my own for at least a week! try to find the cheapest tourist courts (theres a term not used anymore) I can find! Just need AC and clean room and bed and shower! Dont need no fancy schmancy place!!!

found the best hotdog in the whirld! No, not james coney island! PAPPAS! The thing is about a footlong, and has chili and cheese, and real chili, and their fries are the best in the whirld. Reminds me of my moms! all told, with a drink, 10.18 !!! Now, thats a lot for a dog, but the good news, is it feeds 3 people! Not an exaggeration!!! I only ate a third of it at lunch, took the rest to go. Then had a late snack, and then supper!!! All on the same hotdog! It really is good! I dont kid around about good food!!!

Also, had a coupon for a dollar off at K rogers for dryers ice cream!!! THEY HAVE ROOTBEER FLOAT!!! Just tried some, and it tastes just like the "brown cows" we use to get as youts! Remember Brown Cows???? root beer floats!!!!! At least thats what I thought they were! Probably wrong! Been wrong all over the place lately! Cant get my mind right for some reason! Out of step, out of sync, etc...Guess I will go sit on the swing with jack. you probably right!

OH, hey, purina one makes an ice cream for dogs, called FROSTY PAWS...They come 4 dixie cups to a pack! I cut one in half and let them each have a half! Coop eats his slow and easy! Jack just gobbles his right down! Gives me brain freeze just watchin him! They are hard to find, because they just stick them in the middle of the ice cream section!! Of course, there are no other frozen products for dogs or cats, so thats why they are hard to find! A blue box with a puppy on the front and FROSTY PAWS!!!

Oh, ALAMO TAMALES, on berry road east of airline!!! They are the best tamales in the whirld!!!

better go before java script bites me in the behind

Hey Burge ( and all other 'Nam vets)-

My younger brother Jeff was in 'Nam 1968-1971. For him Memorial Day is agony.

So, he is currently at the Kerrville Music Festival and he sez he just has so much

fun making music on his electric guitar that he is able to peacefully remember those

traumatic events. God bless him, he is my favorite sibling. He graduated at Lamar in 1968

and went right into the service.

Burge- we salute you for your selfless contribution to our freedom. Hang tough, my brother.

Love and peace, BJ

thanks you guys but remember that memorial day is for the rememberance of those who fell;thats a lot when you count all the wars this country has been involved in since 1775. if im not mistaken,the civil war was the bloodiest and the most devisive.its hard to reconcile the sacrifice of a single family with deaths on both sides of war.we have to remember today that we are still a powerful and soverign nation irrespective of any call to internationalism, no other entity has the momentum or the philosophical integraty to pull us out of this global crisis.even with polorazation we have power and i hope the wisdom to hold up under all this pressure.north korea,afganistan,syria,iran,the shaking european union,trouble in mexico and colombia; it reminds me of the joke about the lone ranger and tonto: after being surounded by hostile indians,the lone ranger turned to tonto and said" well tonto,what do we do now? tonto says: "what you mean 'we',white man.

i guess it is never realised that some of our enemies practice the old way of striking at the weakest point,the role of defence has been our posture for years and we had the moral high ground to our advantage.i feel like an analog,as weakness covers my body;the struggle has weakened my fiber and my soul;i look around and see a giddyness in our body politic and wonder if this is what we brought upon ourselves or something that is being brought upon us.it may be this indecision that fails.i pray to god that we dont lapse into total weakness.i would like to see some stability for the future,not for myself but for my grandchildren.we may be living an unsteady phase right now;i strive for answers and precedent but there is always a personal bias.we came up with hope in our lives and had asperations of making it better;we are just human after all and there is human suffering all over that is out of our control.

Burge, even though Memorial Day is to honor the fallen I think it is evolving to honor those as well as those who fought and made it home. It might be more appropriate if we diferrentiated more between memorial Day and Veterans Day. That those days and other important days not be thought of as just another Monday holiday for a three day weekend.

I think that our country has a good future. It has always gone through rough times and survived and moved forward. That is part of life. The Bible says you will have trials and tribulations on earth and that seems pretty accurate. I think that the spirit of the American people is our strongest asset. Our form of government isn't perfect but coupled with our spirit it is the best in the world. I have read over and over that people around the world are amazed at the generosity and the overall cooperative behavior of Americans doesn't happen anywhere else. Do we have porblems and short comings, you bet. Will we always have problems and short comings, you bet. The big deal though is that we get it right way more often than we get it wrong. Tomorrow will be a better day. And remember. . keep on dancing and dance like no one is watchng!

Tater, I'm not sure if it is this high pressure that is sitting over us or something cosmic but I'm aware of many people that are in a funk, me included. So I'll offer some advice. First go swing with CJ and a cup of your whirld faymus coffee. I have one of my grandmother's  Bibles that I read frequently. As much to read notes she made in the margins as the book itself. One of her margin notes says," if you're down in the dumps,  do something to help someone else. You will feel a lot better." That is my second suggestion. If this helps, you can thank Sue Bettis Knox.

On a much lighter note. I'll let you know that Liz is progressing very well. In three weeks she has grown from 3 lbs. 3 oz. to 7 lbs. 8 oz. She is also taller and trimmer. She doesn't have that puppy waddle as much as she did. She is really full of energy and I mean REALLY! She and Sugar the cat seem to be getting along pretty well until Sugar has enough of the puppiness. I'm still trying to get a current picture to post but it is hard to get her still enough except when she is asleep. Pics of a sleeping dog aren't real interesting.

Like STB, I'll be back,

Rich LH

To all of my heros.  All of those who served in wars past, present and future.

 

It is the Veteran, not the preacher, who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Veteran, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Veteran, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Veteran, not the campus organizer, who has given us freedom to assemble.

It is the Veteran, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Veteran, not the politician, who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Veteran who salutes the Flag.

It is the Veteran who serves under the Flag.

ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM.

I just want all of you to know how much you were and are appreciated!  To each and everyone of you - Thank you for your sacrifice.  Our era was Vietnam and there has never been a more shameful home comming for you brave young men.  I just can't thank you enough on this Memorial Day weekend.  To my dad, all of my Waltrip classmates and those around the globe, I love you, I pray for you and above all, GOD BLESS YOU.

Good mornin' fellow Waltripians. The puppy ran out of gas earlier than usual last night so I got to do a little reading. I ran across something that I think is interesting. For those of you interested in history and philosophy. Those of you who aren't might be interested also. anyway there is a quote that you've probably heard for years, "I may not agree with what you say but will defend to the death your right to say it". Most people attribute it to Voltaire the philosopher /playwright. However he didn't actually say it. The author of that quote (which I really think is great) was a woman named Evelyn Beatrice Hall writing under the psuedonym Stephen G. Tallentyre. In 1906 she published a summation of Voltaire's thoughts and ideas titled The Friends Of Voltaire. So there's your little history lesson for today.

You also have to be philosophical to root for the Astros lately but it sure was good to see them play a good game last night. I didn't get to watch all of it. When you're Doggy Dad to a 2 mos. old pup that has the energy of 3 you don't get to engage in anything for very long. It was good to see Roy O. win a game, that will keep his market value high. I'd like to them package Oswalt and Carlos Lee and get about 4 or 5 really good young prospects for them. That would also free up a huge amount of payroll to get some really good free agent talent until the prospects learn  how to play at the major league level. I think if Roy wants to go. . thank him for work done and trade him to an American League team. Whew, it was good to get that out there!

Keep on dancing,

Rich LH

Howdy rowdy waltripians!

Been woirkin around the ol homestead, trying to shake this funk offin me! Rich LH, you said it was a high pressure that was holding us down??? Man, it sure is doing that!

Been out on Dawn patrol, well, er uh, more like brunch patrol, with the boys! Alls quiet on the western front! Mama duck and her 10, countem, 10 ducklings, are doing just fine! Little rascals are growing up. Wont be long, and they be truckin off to little ducky college!!! Saw Mr and Mrs Woodduck. Coots whoopin it up. Lots o cranes eating mudbugs...lots o doves...Hawks flying above!!!  Today was trash/recycle day! Not a breath of air flowing, and the hood STUNK because of the garbage cans! I have never smelled it that bad before! Wow, almost had to put a handkerchef over my knose!!! That high, be creatin a high in stink...whew!!!!!peeeuuuu!!!

Having a hard time typing this because I have a WOOLY MAMMOTH, aka Big Oliver, in my lap! That boy sure has gotten clingy! I hear tell they can sense impending problems...you dont think I'm gonna croak do you!!!! Maybe I just have the sniffles!!! Yeah, thats it, the sniffles!!!  of course I did stump "this little piggy had none" again!!! Jeeze Loueeze that hurts...I keep smacking the same toe too!!! That appendage is now twice the size of a normal toe...Ok, I want a recount...Ok, you will be glad to note, the wooly mammoth has gotten off my lap and is siting on my left foot, running his wet sandpaper tongue over my hurt toe! I guess he does know when I'm hurt...Of course, it aint hard to figure out, what with me dancing around on one foot, swearin like a sailor...Oh, thats right, I was a sailor...I believe I learned a few cuss words, and even made some up!!! Not particularly a thing to be proud of, but it's just life!

I thought I heard my beloved say a cuss word once, but she said it wasnt...I distinctly thought I heard her say "DAMN",  but she said it was "MAN"!!!! yeah right!!!! Thats exacty what I say when I smash some part of my body, "MAN" !!!! OK OLIVER, I BELIEVE YOU CLEANED THAT TOE THOROUGHLY, THANK YOU!!!  I believe he even made it smaller with his sandpaper tongue!!!

I saw some funny video either on the tele, or on a email someone sent me, of a cat drinking water from the faucet by letting the water run over it's head, and over its nose and onto its tongue!!! WELL...I got me one of those for real ones that does that! Annie-Bob!!! She likes to drink out of a faucet, so yesterday, I was watching her, and she was letting the water run over her nose, and onto her tongue!!! Peaches, likes to get in the shower, after you turn it off, and drink water!!! In fact if you take, what she perceives as too long in the shower, she starts howling at you to hurry up and get out, so she can get in!!!

Mine very own zoo...Hey, Bernd, we havent heard from you since a winter storm hit Berlin!!!! You ok???? Trying to get the big yellow bus ready to head your way...Speaking of Ready, saw a plumbers truck, called Freddie Baileys plumbing, since 1965...The slogan on the side said it all, "if youre leaking, youre ready for freddie"!!! I thought that was funny, but driving around Gotham City, you just look for entertaining things!!!! Heaven knows, the drivers with the cell phones crammed in their ears aint funny!!! Had lunch at Jasons yesterday, and a young woman with a child was sitting across from me, and that woman had her cell phone up to her ear the whole time! Never paying one bit of attention to that little girl!!!! One day shes gonna wonder why her daughter never has lunch with her, eh!!! If there hadnt been about 10 cops in there, I'd a grabbed her phone and chunked it out in the parking lot!  I went to lunch with both sons along time ago, and a couple of other folks, and everyone of them was on their cellphones during lunch!!! I got up and went to the truck!!! The asked why, my reply was simple, "I didnt ask you cell phone to have lunch with me, just you" !!! I have watched people at lunch, and someone, at almost every table has a phone up to their ear!!!

We use to have season tickets to the Houston Astros, and the U of H cougars football, and basket ball! But I swear, we always sat behind or in front of folks not interested in the game, just talking as loud as they could on their cell phone! Just boggles the mind that people are that dependent on talking on a phone! Is everyone that insecure, they have to have an electronical umbilical cord to whoever they are talking to for hours????

What did people do before cell phones???? I'm still doing it!!!! I know, no one wants to call me...GOOD!!!! Cant hear em nohow!!!!

I rearranged the Library again! I like it much better now...I believe my beloved likes it too, although she did make a snide comment..."you through movin stuff around"??? That, and "I swear, youre going to wear out the legs on the furniture moving it about"!!!!! and "No wonder your back always hurts"!!! I dont have to put up with that...yes I do!!!!

gonna go to the ranch tomorrow! Got 600 pounds of corn, and 200 pounds of protein! And sundry other things! Boys will be glad to romp in the meadows, although it promises to be in the 90s! Our patio thermometer said 100 yesterday!!! And I just know it's official!!!

Got a plethora of projects to do! Change oil in the tractor, mow the roads, hook up an airconditioner...Gotta watch how many projects you assign yourself, cause when I first started some years ago, I would have 10 or 15 projects lined out, and only get to one of em! It all sounds easy in your head, but doing is another thing!!! Didnt take me long to figure that out! But, you need to have at least 3 projects to possibly attempt, just in case the primary project and the secondary project are kaput!!!

OLIVER, STOP LICKING MY FEET, MAN!!!!!! What the heck is wrong with this cat...er...wooley mammoth????? Ok, I love you too, thank you for taking such good care of me, now go see what mommy has for you...

Well, guess I will try to submit this, and see ifin I can get it by ol "java script"!!!

lotsa luck you and yourn...

We did have one small incident, really hardly worth noting, but a small dog came up to him, and K oop let out one of his patented window rattlin barks, and scared the pee out of that poor little critter...no, literally scared the pee out of him!!! Didnt know a kritter that little could hold so much water!!!  I wasnt gonna clean it up, not my dog!!!

Some folks brought in a box full O kittens, about 6 weeks old...NO NO NO, no more kats, and thats that...I DONT KARE HOW KUTE THEM KITTEN KRITTERS ARE!!!
