Gene Autry's Cowboy Code
- The Cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage
- He must never go back on his word, or a trust confided in him.
- He must always tell the truth.
- He must be gentle with children, the elderly, and animals.
- He must not advocate or possess racially or religiously intolerant ideas.
- He must help people in distress.
- He must be a good worker.
- He must keep himself clean in thought, speech, action, and personal habits.
- He must respect women, parents, and his nation's laws.
- The Cowboy is a patriot.
And according to Corb Lund, "You Ain't A Cowboy If You Ain't Been Bucked Off".

The Killer Reloaded
"As his five Chihuahuas yowl inside the house, Jerry Lee Lewis shuffles out the kitchen
door and rummages around the line of doghouses he keeps in his carport for the five gentle mutts who
lie around outside in the yard. He is wearing only his underpants - bikini briefs, not boxers - and
it appears that the most rock & roll of all rock & rollers might be having a senior moment."
"Go back in the house, Daddy!" says Phoebe Lewis, alpha female of his inner circle.
Jerry mumbles something unintelligible. Even in Nesbit, Mississippi ("Home of Jerry Lee Lewis: The Killer"),
nobody talks quite like him. He's the Mount Vesuvius of vowels, which erupt deep under the surface and spew
pure and unalloyed by consonants into the upper atmosphere. It's like the guy decided in 1957 to enunciate song
lyrics and otherwise use his tongue exclusively for swallowing food.
"Go back inside," Phoebe says, "and put on your clothes!"

Frank's Story
Life is good
I am a Seen-ager (Senior teenager). I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later.
I don't have to go to school or work.
I get an allowance every month.
I have my own pad.
I don't have a curfew.
I have a driver's license and my own car.
I have ID that gets me into bars and the whiskey store.
The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant.
And I don't have acne.
Life is great. I have more friends I should send this to, but right now I can't remember their names.
Thanks for this, Reg!

Terry Gilliam's deleted animations from Monty Python & The Holy Grail
"On its world, the people are people. The leaders are lizards. The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."
"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford. "It is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them," said Ford. "They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government
they've voted in more or less approximates to the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards?"
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard," said Ford, "the wrong lizard might get in. Got any gin?"
