That BMW kept on following us around, like he was part of the group or something.

... there we was, waitin' for Rich and Tats, who was off tryin' to find Mt. Rushmore or sumthun'. Ain't none of us had a banjo, but we was there long enough to consider a corncob pipe and Jew's harp*.

Before we had a chance to set up a still or cook up some meth, there was a feller with a black Bee Em Double-U folleren' us around. He was friendly enough we didn't think he was a revenuer or nuthun', but we made him go look for them other folk whilst we set on the porch a spell.

Twernt no thang.













* I had to look this up to determine if this was now an offensive name for this (kinda'/sorta') "instrument", but results were inconclusive. The Google thought police say it might be, but no evidence of anybody actually being offended could be found. If you feel I've erred in some way, please forgive my ignorance... for I was raised in a sheltered environment in a town with a total population smaller than your elementary school enrollment. Regardless, I used the term in a poor attempt at humor meant to disparage Appalachian-Americans, so I suppose you must do with me what you will. I apologize to my Hebrew brethren, my corncob-pipe smoking friends, all banjo players in the world, "artisan craft distillers", clandestine chemists, and anybody who enjoys listening to a "jaw harp", "vargan", "mouth harp", "gewgaw", "guimbard", "khomus", "Ozark harp", "Galician harp", "Berimbau" or "murchunga" (or any other euphemism or alternate name for "the lamellaphone which shall go otherwise nameless").
