snowyday Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 “One day,†said the old country-man from the hills of Tennessee, who was on trial for murder, “when my rheumatism was pestering me, and my daughter had just eloped with a good-for-nothing scalawag, and my barn had burned down and I lost both my mules, and my best old sow got the chlorea and died, and I just heard they had foreclosed on the mortgage and the sheriff was lookin’ for me, I told my troubles to one of these here optimists, and he said “Cheer up, old top, the worst is yet to come!†So I shot him. * * * Snowyday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
