As I was leavin' the barn this AM for my mornin' constitutional, you'll never believe what I saw parked smack dab out front...the "ACME Roofing Company" truck! Talkin' 'bout a sign! I had me a whole pickup! I mean what're the chances of that, Deanie Darlin'!?

I hadda laugh, then checked 'round, kinda worried-like for WileE. After all, havin' a safe fall on yer head's not 'xactly the happy way to start the day, right!? Anyways, I finally saw the roofer on the neighborin' roof and was kinda disappointed 'cuz he didn't look anythang like Wile E. Nope, not my type a'tall. No orange T-shirt even. I was mighty tempted to say somethang cute like, "Meep, meep," but didn't wanna start somethang I didn't wanna finish, ifn' ya catch my drift, darlin'.

So, I just went 'bout my business regular like, but first you'll be glad to know I snapped a pitcher of that coincidental sign with my paranoid camera, just like them folks at the X-Files mighta done when somethang spooky crossed their paths. 'Course this was a good kinda spooky, notta suck you up in some ailin' space-craft 'n probe yer brains out 'til the cows come home 'n your eyes pop out like some run-away bride kinda spooky. Lucky fer me, huh!?

Anyways, I've squirreled my ol'ACME pitcher away fer that show 'n tell time we're plannin' on havin' some happy day in futuro. Boy, sure wish I hadda pitcher of them jail-bird love-birds! Wooooo E! That musta bin one for ol'Ripleys', I betcha! What a pecker that ol'bird musta had...I mean...Ya know...To peck out that hole...I mean...Well...I'll just leave it at that...One fer ol'Ripleys'!

An' here's 'nother thang you'll never believe...I just heard this Vince Gill song, "Look At Us," on KGOB, the Good Ol'Boys Station,...an' guess what, Deanie Darlin', 'Nother one for ol'Ripleys'...Vince Gill talks just like us!!!

Look at us
After all these years
Gittin' better 'n better, too
With the accents to prove it!

Look at us
After all that we've been through
The wars, darlin' the wars
Namely the Civil War, Yankee dogs!
Actually, it's pronounced the Civil Wah!

Look at us
Still leanin' on each other
Guess the peg legs help
Race ya up Billy Goat Hill!

If'n you wanna see
How true love should be
Then just look at us
But don't you kids dare try this at home!
'N don't tell your parents or we'll get arrested!

Look at you
Still bodacious!
Look at me
Still crazy over you
Yup, still crazy after all these years!
But they still haven't come to take me away!
Talk about a back-log!

Look at us
Still believin' in forever
Whatever it takes, darlin'

If'n you wanna see
How true love should be
Then just look at us
Who'd a thunk it!?

In a hundred years from now
I know without a doubt
They'll all look back
And wonder how the hell
We made it all work out
99% perspiration, 1% inspiration
Or is it vicey versey?
That formula's SO confusin'!

Chances are
We'll go down in history
Or infamy...
When they wanna see
How true love should be
They'll just look at us...
'N scratch their heads
'N go, "huh?!" But hey,
Works for us, don't it, Darlin'!

XO
Bud
