Sniff...

I mean, jus' sniff...

Yeah, Goerge Bush has taken a lotta joy outta our lives an' ther best thing I can say is that he ain't gonna be 'round forever... But the bad news is that Hillary will prolly be the next president and she scares the heck outta me... She's mean as cat poop...

But nevermind cat poop 'cause that ain't what's important here...

What is important is about this "firin" episode... Now, I will preface my remarks with a simple statement that, like Tom T. Hall, I like to drenk beer... But I don't quite see it perzactly the way that KT sees it... BTW, in case anyone doesn't know it, I am her "#1 Admiring Fan"... So this is the way that I remembers it...

Okay, it was like EJ, Eb, KT and me an' we were kinda doing a little jammin' back at TumbleWeed to see what we could put together an', well, sniff, EJ got it real okay and' KT, bless her heart, was trying to get to the outhouse from the penthouse but the elvator was broke... I mean, slam broke... Yeah, the gal coulda jumped to her death and, well, okay, then maybe she woulda made it into the band...

Well, folks... If you ever heard KT sing you wouldn't want her in the outhouse... She sings so purdy that it makes the hairs on yer neck stand at attention... Sho nuff does... So Iz thinkin' that unless i wantyed to spend my afterlife in Hell that I had to do somethin'... Right??? So I told her that she was fired... Heck, I had to do it... I had no other choice...

Okay, look at it this way... So what if I kept KT in the band... Then what, you ask??? Well, she prolly woulda taken the "Devil's Music" to the next level, made Janis Joplin look like a Girl Scout, and be in jail 'er some half-way house by now... Hey, what's a guy to do???

It weren't like, ahhhhhhhh, firin'... Okay it was like firin'....

But my motives were honorable an', pleeeze Lord, don't send me off to Hell over this little situation...

I'll be good... I'll help ol' ladies... I won't step on bugs on the sidewalks... I won't drive in the passin' lane 'cept when passin'... I promise I won't...

Oh, the guilt....
