Opposites attract. That explains why you are so perfect and
your spouse is such a louse. A man who is tall enough to hunt
geese with a tennis racket marries a woman who in high heels
can't reach past “3” on the elevator buttons.

In an older part of San Angelo, an eatery called
Mr. T's feeds big crowds of Wool Capitol citizens. Folks not
attuned to franchise houses flock into the former grocery
store. Business is brisk; many prominent citizens are regular
customers. |

Some
blamed the incident on her fuzzy slippers.
Brenda is a top hand, and like many ranch women, is
especially good at calving heifers. Because of her skill and
stamina, she and her husband, Perry, had synchronized 110
first-calf heifers to calve within a two-week period. Of
course, when they bred them they didn’t anticipate those two
weeks would fall in a period of clear skies and 40˚ below
zero. |

I think I made a BIG mistake. I should never have left
home, and I wonder if many of my generation don't feel the
same way. I haven't lived in the town of my childhood for 35
years, and yet to this day when someone asks me where I call
home, I don't give my current address. I respond with the name
of the place where I was born and couldn't wait to leave. I
often wonder how my life would have been different had I never
left. |

Let’s turn back the clock about 35 years. Now,
remember some good television theme songs. For example, “The
Ballad of Jed Clampett,” or “Hawaii Five-0.” So here’s
your assignment: if you had to suggest a theme song for a
television show dealing with hunting blue quail, what might it
be? |

I
was looking through the advertisements in this paper, and I am
underwhelmed by the number of advertisers who do not list a
website for more information.
