What you talkin bout man?

I haven't changed a bit, I'm the same reasonable person that I've always been. I've been a  seeker of truth for as long as I can remember. Maybe I still don't understand what you mean by KBW, or maybe you still don't understand the Republic of Beaglesonia. They are both just hypothetical fantasies, aren't they?

The thing I saw on the news mentioned that several states are in the process of tightening their gun laws, but I don't remember them identifying them by name. They talked about what Georgia has just passed, and I know from other news articles I have read that there has been talk of doing something like that in Michigan, although it's not a done deal yet. I remember when Michigan made it easier to get a concealed carry permit a few years ago that they exempted certain public buildings like schools, churches, and movie theaters. Since then, those are the very places that have experienced the mass shootings, so some people believe that's where they need their guns the most. I don't know if I agree with that or not, but I know that prohibiting guns in those places certainly hasn't stopped the bad guys from bringing them in. Personally, if I felt the need to carry a gun around town, I would move to a different town, but that's just me. I haven't been inside a school, church, or movie theater in a long time, not because I think those places are particularly dangerous, it's just that I have no reason to go there.

Cowboys smoke pot now? I never heard of such a thing but, like I said, I don't get around much anymore. Now that I think about it, maybe that's what John Denver meant by his "Colorado rocky mountain high". He wasn't a real cowboy, though, I think he just bought a ranch for a tax deduction or something. You know, Denver wasn't his real name. I have an old vinyl record album somewhere by the Chad Mitchel Trio, and Denver was one of the trio but, in those days, his name was something like "Ducheldorf". I could try to find it, but I would just get all dusty, and I've already had my shower tonight.

I used to like cowboy movies back in the days when you could easily tell the good guys from the bad guys, and the good guys always won in the end. When they started coming out with those "adult westerns", though, I lost interest. If I want to watch something labeled as "adult", I'll stick with porn the way God intended.
