Wild Bill had a pair of Aces and a pair of 8's - thats where the term Dead mans hand came from....And I also think like Tibb's, his fifth card was a 10.....When you get to Deadwood they have the whole panorama layed out there for you....

Tam- I have come up with a diagnosis of your problem, but would like to run it by a couple of "professionals"...I have to go to town this afternoon to get feed and a haircut- and just for you, I will stop by the water hole for a consultation session :wink: .......Keep me filled in on these dreams and visions you're seeing-- This Canadian cow in a combine one may take a long consultation period- but we'll do it for you :lol: :lol:
 
Tam- I consulted "the professionals"- and they agreed with my diagnosis...Your dreams, visions and lashing out at certain people is symptoms of a severe repression of deep inner feelings in your Id or innerself-- they are indications of your subconcious guilt feelings that you have deserted your native born cattlemen....A deep down knowledge that you know if you still lived in the states you would be supporting the US cattleman all the way......

Lance agreed 100% on the diagnosis and Louis and Babe concurred- we were hoping for another opinion from Saskatoon since she is a Saskatchewan born, that came south, but she was unavailable....All except Babe also feel that there is an easy cure- but I think he was too busy counting Canadian money from the old days- waiting for it to be worth something, which influenced his decision-- showed me a Canadian $1000 that I'd never seen before- that is worth about $750- also some US $500's, which I also didn't know were not being made anymore- which are worth $750-1000...

Anyway the opinion was that you could rid yourself of these conspiracy feelings and visions, paranoia, and this deep inner repression by joining R-CALF and with a generous donation at the next legal fund calf sale!! :lol: :lol:

Just think how much better you will feel- and don't worry about my fee, this one is pro bono-- altho my expenses amounted to over $100 since I ran into an old cattle and horse trader I went to college with- made for a long day.... At least I got away without buying the Weaver stud he was trying to sell me.......
 
I think you spent a little to much time talking to a bartender today Oldtimer why don't you go sleep it off. :roll: Besides if I ever did join R-CALF that is when I would have my head examined by a true professional and not some brain washed R-CALFer trying to be funny. :wink:

The only feelings I have are towards some of my so called native born cattlemen is shame. As I can not see how they could be so easily taken in by a bunch of liars and lawyers. I also find it funny that you think I deserted my native born cattlemen The Americans that I talk to all feel the same way I do and that R-CALF is a waste of time and money and they wish they would just shut their lieing months too. If you really want to know who the minority in the border issue is just look in the mirror Oldtimer as I would have to say those that support the border openning far out number the ones that don't.

....A deep down knowledge that you know if you still lived in the states you would be supporting the US cattleman all the way......

I can still support the US cattlemen all the way. I was raise to believe you do on to other as you would have them do on to you. and to tell the truth even if it hurts. Therefore I could never see myself believeing that any LIE justifies the desired result. That would go against everything my American parents taught me. :lol: Therefore I still couldn't support R-CALF.
By the way you are a lawman, isn't impersonating a docter a crime? You should really do the right thing and turn yourself in and get some help. Maybe if you tell them you are a R-CALFer they will take pity on you and just lock you in a mental ward somewhere until you can figure out what is true and what is not again. :wink:

Aw- I can see we have you thinking about it at least :lol: :lol: EH

Tam- Have you ever seen one of those Canadian $1000 bills?- my old tavern owner claims they quit making them several years ago...He has quite a collection of Canadian money- many coming back from Canada bring him Canadian money to buy, since the banks won't handle it anymore-- thinks it is a good investment- holding onto it until Canadian money gets up to par with US.....Guy came in yesterday with a whole sack of loonies...

Did you get this rain- it looks like it is slipping into your neck of the woods- might have to take another run to town- spent so much time on consultation of your visions that I never got to the barber- wife thinks I look like a sheepherder....But if I do that I will probably end up with another discussion session- at least yesterday was less cussing Canadians, and more cussing CAFTA and politicians and horsetrading :) ......

Don't get you hope up Oldtimer as that is a very very very big IF :P

Yes I have seen a few of the old $1000 bills. One time when I was a the bank the teller and I got talking about them and she was telling me a story about another customer that was collecting them. He thought they were so pretty that when the bank would get one in he would buy it. Then he took 10 of them and had them framed and hung them on his wall like a piece of art work. One night his house was broke into and guess what was missing. :shock: The $10,000 piece of art work, no appraisal needed. :(
I do know they are collecting up all the old $1000 bills and are sending them to be destroyed but I don't really know if they make any new ones.

Yes we did get some rain. Yesterday morning we got 8 tenths in the hay field and only a tenth in the home yard. This morning we woke up to rain again. I'm not sure what was in the gauge but it doesn't look to be much.

To bad you couldn't find a bartender that could multi-task and while serving drinks, he could cuts your hair. Better yet maybe you can find a bar with a cute little bar maid and she could cut your hair. After a few drinks you wouldn't care how good she was at it, as long as she was cute and flirts alot. :pretty: How is that for a vision for you. :wink: I bet there wouldn't be nearly so many men looking like sheepherders then. :nod: :lol2:
 
Tam- you may have just came up with the answer for us-- Because actually the barbershop is built into the corner of the water hole- its just that the barber is getting older and because of his health is putting in less hours a week......We were just discussing what would happen if he closes shop- only thing left is the beauty shops that charge $20 a pop- I'll use my own shears before I have to get an appointment to pay that...

But if we could get one of those sweet young things to move into the barbershop- would take care of our problem and be a drawing card for the waterhole :) - Be lots more guys waiting to discuss & cuss Canadians with :lol:

And I think I may have got another convert yesterday- local Farm Bureau V.P.- but he's so flustered with Farm Bureaus support of the border opening, CAFTA backing, flip-flop on M-COOL, that he's joining R-CALF--everyday their are more that are seeing the light :wink: ......

Seeing the light. Is that bright light shone in the euyes for hours while listening to Bill and Leo chanting.
 
What I remember is that Wild Bill held aces and eights, with a red jack.

I was there, I ought to know. :wink:

Seriously, someone ought to do a search on it.
 
Who knows? You can all check it out in Deadwood and report back to us.

The most famous poker hand is the legendary Dead Man's Hand. Wild Bill Hickok was shot to death during a poker game in Deadwood, South Dakota. The hand he held was two pair, black aces and black eights. The fifth card is not known for certain. The top five sources claim the following cards to be Wild Bill's kicker:

Five of Diamonds — The actual card on display in Deadwood

Queen of Clubs — The card on display at Ripley's Believe It or Not

Nine of Diamonds — The card supposedly reported by first-hand accounts and is used in the recreation in Deadwood

King of Spades — The movie, The Plainsman, in which Hickok is played by Gary Cooper, released in 1936 shows this as the fifth card in the hand.

Legend claims his fifth card was the jack of diamonds, but some maintain it was the queen of diamonds.

Good Luck getting a barber up there, OT.

Story has it they are a dying breed.

Our daughter is a barber and went to barber school in Montana in 1988.
Now there isn't one barber school in this state.

She has done well at her profession and likes the fact she doesn't have to listen to women fuss about their hair.

Well, some guys fuss, but not many. :wink:

She sure has met a lot of interesting people. It's a big world out there.

If she ever gets looking for a place to relocate to, I sure know the place...Used to have 5 or 6 shops, some with 2 or 3 barbers at times- now down to two with one barber each- and one is about 70 and the other 75- both talking of retiring.....

And I know I'll get out the sheep shears before I go to some of those swishy "guy beauticians".....
