Welcome to Wedliny Domowe "Darwin" in Arizona. Say, I wonder how many folks know that Oraibi in Arizona, is the oldest Indian settlement in the United States and the Hopi Indians founded it. Among all the states, Arizona has the largest percentage of its land set aside and designated as Indian lands. And... did you know that Arizona does not have "daylight saving time"? You see, in Arizona folks are smart! They don't have to reset their watches just because it gets dark!

We're glad to have you with us Darwin. Pull up some shade and pour yourself a cup of brown gargle!

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

Say there wranglers! Isn`t it just about time for some, Thrilling Tumbleweed Trivia" - particularly, peculiar, poppycock you probably just couldn`t live without!

Now I`ve got a couple of bits of trivia that you just can`t ignore any longer! Yes, yes... just like the Duk says... "Enquiring minds want to know".
The first bit of trivia is shocking! Yup, truly shocking! The average person will spend 4 years of their life on the toilet! Better stock up on TP!
Hey, did you know that Thomas Edison, the inventor of the lightbulb, was actually afraid of the dark? Yup, it`s true. Can you name the only food that doesn`t spoil? It`s honey. If it dries up, just apply a little heat and moisture and it`s just like new again. Geeeeze... how many different ways can you make change for one dollar? (not sitting on the porcelain throne of course)... The answer is 293! Amazing.

Goodness, everyone talks about being back in a jiffy. So what is a jiffy? It is actually a measure of time and it equals 1/100 of a second! Now, if you are really quick, you could say, "I`m going to the toilet but I`ll be back in a jiffy"!

Welcome to Wedliny Domowe mikehock in Brooklyn, New York, and Rodney in Austin, Texas. Nice to have you fellas with us. Pull up some shade and grab a cup of red hot Green River Brown Gargle strong enough to "float a Colt"!

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

Here is another one. It takes longer for a magnet to fall through a copper pipe than through a plastic pipe.

What! What? Wouldn't that depend on who is holding the pipe?

Yikes! Have you ever stepped on a rattlesnake? I have. A couple of times actually. Now that will give a person a "pucker factor" of about 10! My fishin' partner was bitten on the lower leg and his immune system was never the same after that. Our pal Butterbean in Georgia has been around those danged things too. There are probably many more members who know about these pesky things. BUT... do you know where the most poisonous snakes are? In the sea!

Hey, we have a new member. A female sausage maker! Welcome to WD "momal" in Azerbaijan. Make yourself comfortable and join us around the campfire!

Howdy folks,
I reckon bime-by, the biscuit shooter must get back to tellin` windies and stringin' wizzers. Well pards, in all my born days, I reckon I`ve never known a more odiferous and well-ventilated tale than that of the Ghost Stage from Red Rock, driven by "Bone Yard" Touficbacha from Tripoli and "Boggy Top" Raquellprzepiora from Chicago. Yup, these fellas handled the stage near El DuckO`s "Texas hill country" driving the stagecoach from the Red Rock Station, down Whiskey Ridge, up Grubstake Gulch, through the Powder Keg Pass, and finally into the Scattergun Stage Stop & Taco Toxico Lunchstand - where the Stationmaster "Dynamite Sally" apriljust (from the Phillipines) packed the strong box and hoisted it to the top of the stage coach three days a week.

On Thursday last, hearing that "Curly Wolf" sfisher (from South Carolina) and his ruthless hold-up men were in the area, Dynamite Sally decided to catch the outlaws as they lifted the strongbox. Replacing the payroll with full bottles of nitroglycerin, she rigged them to detonate when the outlaws opened up the strongbox. However, that particular day, Bone Yard and Boggy Top stopped at the Whiskey Ridge Station and Thirst Emporium to take on a shipment of eggs - yes, cases and cartons and cartons of... eggs. And wouldn`t cha` know it... they were placed on top of the strong box... in the noon-day sun!

Meahwhile, inside the Bent Brick Benzinery & Bodega, a beautiful dancing girl known as "Barb Wire" momal from Pakistan, was also heating things up herself, and as the temperature climbed, the instability of the nitroglycerin did as well. It was only a matter of time until the soaring temperature or a small jar from a bump in the road would take the roof off the stagecoach! That "bump in the road" turned out to be "Owl Hoot" rogerdt from New Abany, Indiana - Yes, yes... ,"Owl Hoot" Rogerdt had been the "lookout" for the Curly Wolf Fisher gang, but had fallen asleep in the middle of the road! He just couldn`t keep his eyes open any longer... after all, he`d gotten up at the crack of O`dark thirty having played poker all night long with "Hard Case" Seadog from Washington who always dealt from the bottom of the deck! Now riding `shotgun` for the stage, "Bull Whacker" Raquelprzepiora from Chicago, Illinois didn`t even see ol` Owl Hoot Roger`s ol' carcass in the middle of the road.

"Lookout!" yelled Boggy Top at the last second. "Watchout", yelled Bullwhacker"! It was too late. What that nitroglycerin did to those eggs was simply thaumaturgical!

(yes, that's a word!) Now... according to two nearby drifting, singing cowboys from a bad, late-night, saloon band... the eggs blew up straight into the air hundreds of feet before shaping a mushroom cloud. The two cowboy eyewitnesses, "Buckaroo Bub" RossD out of Sydney, Australia, and "Horsefeathers" Old Bones from Minnesota later said, "them there eggs just seemed to float in the air; p`shaw... like they never would come down." A little further down the trail, a wandering, four-flushin` card sharp by the name of "Greased Lightnin`" jmoffatt out of Louisiana, reported seeing the eggs actually being cooked in the hot air rushing up from the vicinity of El DuckO`s house. Moffatt reported that for hours, little "lighter-than-air egg omelets" drifted to the ground like October leaves.

Oh yes, the stage! Whatever happened to the stage? Well, what was left of it was pieced together again by two very skilled and patient artists named Moxis from Edinburgh, England, and Jens from Denmark. Now... some folks say that in their wildest dreams, they see - to this day... a "Ghost Stage"

charging around the curves on the trail near El DuckO`s house where bits and pieces of eggs can yet be observed being cooked by hot air and falling onto the plates of those willing to "pan for their breakfast".

And that`s the way it really, really was!

Welcome to Wedliny Domowe all you new folks. Make yourself comfortable and pour yourselves some Arbuckles from that big ol' blue pot on the campfire over there....
We're glad to have you with us.

Best Wishes,
Chuckwagon

Say there, isn`t it just about time for some, "Seasoned Saddlebum`s Sage Advice & Philosophy From The Saddle!" ? Yup, reckon so... here goes...
The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win... and cheat like hell if necessary!

Hey, did you know that the average response time of a 911 call is over 23 minutes? That`s outrageous! In Utah and Texas, the response time of a 9mm, a .357 mag, or a .44 magnum, is 1400 feet per second!

Welcome to WD "Malcolm" in Brisbane, Australia. We`re glad to have you with us. Pour yourself some Arbuckles and "set a spell". You`re going to like this place.

Bazza,
What is wrong with Malcolm joining our ranks as a learner curer, smoker and charcuterier.
Every new member has their name in Bold BLUE and where they reside in Bold BLACK and poor Malcolm barely gets a mention.
Are you applying racist rules against us Banana Benders in Queensland, just because we are the most important State in Australia.
Cheers,
Jan.
