Craig had been riding point on the side closest to the highway and the tourists asked him to pose. Craig was even less gregarious than Dave and I and we were pretty surly and you could actual see the muscles tighten in Craigs neck. Dave rode up to me and said "Craig looks pretty uncomfortable" and we both started laughing then we took out our ropes and started galloping back and forth and swinging or ropes while I yelled "YeeeeeeHAAA! I'm the rootinest tootinest cowboy in the West!!" The I was going to yodel but my throat was dusty and it came out "Icky! Icky!" So for the next couple years, Rootin' Tootin' was answered with "Icky! Icky!" and a lot of laughter. Hence, today's title. <BR/><BR/>The pleasure was all mine, Cowgirl. Icky! Icky!<BR/><BR/>Howdy, again, Kyahgirl and Happy Birthday!<BR/><BR/>Poobah, saddles already come with an emergency exit.

By the way, everyone, that sentence is long and formal because I'm writing to a PhD. Weirsdo will say something if I dangled a participle or split an infinitive.<BR/><BR/>Miz B, as long as I have great volunteers I'll stay amazing.<BR/><BR/>You better believe it, Masil.
