Richard - what exactly is a **cayuse** as in the 4th verse?
I've always wondered!
Great idea Connie - songs round the camp-fire - trouble is I can't carry a tune in a bucket - friends always tell me to SHUT UP - so I wont be offended when you all shout at me!!!
Well done Gini - now you and the horse are facing the right way you don't look like a 'push-me-pull-you'!!

Lynne, you can listen to me. I'm a tenor and I sing in the church choir!Quote:

Arrrrr me wee wench... ya had me laughin' wit dat one. Mario reminds me of Ragtime Cowboy Joe with his silly little cowboy hat trying to lasso a parrot!Quote:
Push-me-pull-you
How he sings,
Raggy music to his cattle (parrot?)
As he swings
Back and forward in his saddle
On his horse
(A pretty good horse),
Who is syncopated gaited,
And with such a funny meter
To the roar of his repeater.
Laurie, how does Mario keep his pants up in that outfit?! Laurie, I thought you were TOO young to remember that song!Quote:

My mom used to sing that song to me when I was little. Riding these donkies are sure a lot different than horses. They sure are hard headed. I can't get mine to go more than a few feet at a time. Anyone got a carrot I can dangle in front of him?
Mario probably has a banana you could use but somehow I don't think donkeys like bananas :rolleyes:
2nd verse
silly as the 1st
How they run,
When they hear the feller’s gun,
Because the western folks all know:
He’s a hifalootin’, scootin’, shootin’
Son-of-a-gun from Arizona,
Ragtime Cowboy
(Talk about your cowboy),
Ragtime Cowboy Joe.
I hate to bring it up David but I do believe I'm EVEN older than you ;) :p
Uh, My knee is a month old! The rest of me is 56! But I still like the song!
Ohhhh, Ohhhhhh, Ohhhhh, I am SO SORE! I don't think I will ever be able to stand up straight again! And this donkey named PUSH ME - PULL YOU doesn't like me one bit.
And wouldn't you know? He just loves Mario!
Richard, can we get off the Lemonade thing now?
I am just lovin the songs though.
lynne,
A cayuse is a cowboy name for a horse.:D
well, my mule could use a bath, but the view from here is specatular so it is definately worth the trip.
Am I supposed to be saying ARRRGGH or Yeee-haw - its so confusuling.:rolleyes:
I just wish the haz-mat guys could see this.;)
Gini, how do you get off of this four legged dirtballl? The view was great, though! I could use a strong lemonade right about now. AAARRRGGGGHHHH!!
Catland... how about "arrrrrrgh partner, why don't you rustle up some grub while Mario swabs the poop deck you scurvy dogs" what did I just say?? :confused:
:confused: Mario is going to swab a poopy deck with a scurvy dog while singing Ragtime Cowboy Joe?Quote:

Whoa, I musta missed SOMETHING! :D
Glad to see you all made it down the hill in one piece!:D
Too funny! Yep, I'm hurting as well. Haven't ridden in almost two years. Probably won't be able to walk after I get off this donkey. I agree that some spiked up lemonade would definately taste really good! Maybe we should give some to the donkies?Quote:

Oh MOFF, I'm laughing so hard my cheeks hurt AND NO, I WASN'T EVEN ON A DONKEY :D Once again co-workers are avoiding my area... after all (they must be thinking) it IS Thursday again... poor dear, there she goes..
Man after hearing about all these donkey problems I think I'm just going to walk...
Hey HEY! Who's throwing rocks! REMUS!!!! Bum cat...
DDM, those donkeys don't need anything stronger! They're pretty strong already! PHEW!
Connie, maybe TWO pieces! This interesting therapy for the knee!!Quote:

Oh, Oh, Mario wants to take his donkey home with him! :eek:
Mario! You scurvy little poop maker - get back here with that donkey!
Oh, Richard, didn't you bring the portable bar??? Please ....please ????
LOL!!!Quote:

Ow, now my sides hurt!
(why does the scene from Cat Balou with Lee Marvin, drunk, weaving in the saddle, with the horse spinning in circles, keep coming to mind?) :eek: :D
I don't know which is worse my sides hurting from laughter or tremebering my last horse experance. Glad i'm staying at the bar.
I'm glad you're minding the home front Corrina - there's going to be some sore backsides when this day is over.
Are we going to stay long enough for the sunset?
Gini - I haven's seen Richard or his portable bar for a while but sneak over here and I can treat you to what I have in my "water" bottle.;)
Mario has been very good to his donkey all day. I'm sure that Tray wouldn't mind one more member of the household.
Now if we can just get Remus to stop throwing the rocks.:eek:
**clomp clomp clomp clomp clomp**
HEEELLLPPP !!!!!!
THIS DONKEY WON'T STOP!!!! WHOA!! WHOA!!!! NOT SO FAST!!!!!!
**pulls hard on reins**
STOP.....YOU STUPID DONKEY!!!
LOOK OUT BELOW.......
RUN FOR COVER EVERYONE..........
**runs right through the campsite**
HOW DO I MAKE HIM STOP????
**turns around and runs right into Gini**
**falls off donkey and right on top of Gini**
OMG Gini, are you alright?? I'm so sorry. Here, let me help you up!
My gosh you guys saddled up and left in a hurry so I had to follow Mario's poop trail to find you. Oh, my butt hurts so bad from all that bouncing. Oh dear Gini, your chaps are ripped.
Hey, at least your donkey is moving! I've had to fight with mine the whole trip. But, it has been fun. Are we staying for the sunset? I think that would be nice. Where is Richard and the portable bar? We could all use a drink.
Connie, a parrot AND a donkey?! Is Mario trying to start his own ZOO?!Quote:

Why, Slick, how nice of you to DROP in!!!
What a bunch we are! Richard plans this really nice field trip and all we can do is bump into each other.
However, I swear, it would have been easier to carry that donkey down the canyon! I realized later that Mario was tickling my donkey's rump which made him act so crazy.
Well he must have been taking lessons from watching Richard scratch Rusty's rump. :DQuote:

Psssssttt, guess what? In my backpack I have some Uncle Jose and some mix. Hee Hee Hee Sorry no ice though. Any takers on a slushy to ease those sore aching muscles??
Gini, how come when everyone gets off of their donkey, they start walking like me?? BTW, are you and Slick all right? You two had quite a tumble!!
If he is, I hope he doesn't hear about Chuckie, the 1200 pound gator that got loose from a zoo when Ivan went through. He was last seen swimming in what used to be the zoo's parking lot before it flooded. I can't remember if it was in Alabama or Florida. :eek:Quote:

Slick good to see you!
Ok, everyone time to get up. You have to go back UP the trail today, you know!:D
Yipppeeee Tai Aiy partners and Aye aye captain. Well me harties, shall we mount up the critters and head three sheets to the wind up the trail ;) boy oh boy is that hot tub going to feel good Cowboy coffee and Grog, how's THAT for a combo meal :rolleyes:
ow- - I'm so sore I can hardly move. Such a headache too - Slick's friend Jose and I had wayyy too much fun last night.:p
C'mon everyone - up and at'em - rise and shine (that's what my mom would always say - <groan>). Anyone see Mario?
We have to move already? My rump is just getting some feeling back in it. Am I going to be sore tomorrow! Where is Mario? Maybe he can get my donkey moving. Anyone know how to motivate a donkey?
Oh God, I can't move either. I'm staying right here tucked away in my sleeping bag.
God, look at Laurie....how can anyone be so "perky" in the morning.....;)
Laurie!!! Hush up and go back to sleep...............
I may have to live down here.........I can't even move!
Connie, do you mean that we have to ride these four legged fleabags UP the mountain? I was looking around for an elevator! Or maybe you can click your heels three times!!Quote:

Sorry, clicking my heels only works for me. You need your own pair of ruby slippers!
:D
After I get to the top, I can thow them down and you can take turns putting them on and getting out. They are a size 6, by the way.
Laurie may have room in the helicopter.
:D
