I received an email from Gary Joyner today. Gary runs the Geronimo web site. and insures that only A Company guys get on there. Well he has a guy who says he was in A 1/501 until Dec 71. His name is Jose A. Diaz. Gary does not think the guys sounds real. Does any one know him? The name is not familiar to to me, but I can't remember my name half the time. Let me know please.
I left Terrell at 0530 hrs. Thursday morning and was in Phoenix at 0430 hrs the next day and that was with a three hour nap in New Mexico.
I do not know if any one will want to go to the cajiun Cowboy with all the scandleous goings on. Some of us have reputations to look out for. Harry you can still go.

Now I KNOW that most of you believe I'm blowing a lot of smoke when I write some of this stuff, but 99% of it is always close to the facts as I know them. I am sure most of you will remembefr the blog I wrote several days ago about the big brawl in Tex's Cajun Cowboy in Omaha, Texas. Well now I ran across more info from another source. This past weekend I was in Texarkana, Texas for the annual Northeast Texas Athletic Directors Conference. As usual I bought a local newspaper and this one was a Texarkana Gazette. And right there on page 2 was another article about the fight at the Cajun Cowboy! It was titled: Mardi Gra Turns Mean At The Cajun Cowboy
But this time there was a little more detail about the fight than what the Mt. Pleasant paper had. Just so happens that a reporter for the Gazette was there on what was suppose to be a night off and witnessed the whole thing. He didn't name any names so I assume that he is a friend of Tex's. But what he DID mention was that the fight started on the first floor between one of the owners of the Cajun Cowboy (I assume that was Tex himself) and the drummer who was playing in the featured band at the Cajun Cowboy that night. The reporter mentioned something about words being exchanged between the men because of some flirting with a local lady. The words turned to shoving. Then it gets REALLY interesting... It seems that the fight then escalated when a fourth party intervened. Her name was not mentioned, but she was identified as a former Playboy Bunny, Miss September 1974. This only added to my belief that Tex knew the reporter. It sounds to me like some concocted story to get more people to go to the Cajun Cowboy. Come on Tex? Who believes that Playboy Bunnies go to the Cajun Cowboy in Omaha, Texas???
