Has anybody other than me noticed that the Rat is putting in an offer to buy land at a different town every week? Sometimes it is even TWO different towns in a week. I once thought that the Rat was being a tight-wad and not offering anything close to what these people were asking. So each one turned him down without so much as a counter offer. But this is the best buyer's market since the Great Depression so I don't believe that is the case. Someone out there would have been desperate enough to take even what HE would offer. So now I have an opinion about two possibilites. One is that he can't find the same place twice. You would think that his new Garmin would help him out with that, so the second possibility may be the closest to the truth. He makes an offer at some town. The city council finds out who it is making the offer. They can't tell the seller not to sell to the Rat, (This is Texas, not China after all) so they do the only thing they CAN do. They change the name of the town. So now the Rat puts in an offer. He doesn't hear back and by god he is going down there to kick ass and take names, because his money is as good as anybody's. He gets in his crappy Dodge pickup, fires up the Garmin, punches in the name of the town, and gets no directions because that town is no longer in the system. Take for example the name of the last town he told us he was making an offering in. Eureka. That very name use to symbolize the excitement people felt on finding something really good. That town now is called Ohshitthatwasclose.

Before I go off on Tex, I must relay an incident that made me realize just how close to senility I am getting. The other day, I was on my computer going through all the emails that Tom Doxtater sends me along with the SPAM and advertisements and what ever. In any case, I said to my self, self!, why don't you email Tom and ask him if he has anything else he can do with his time besides fill my screen with all those myriad of jokes, videos and pass it on stuff. Then the light went on and I realized that I had to spend the same amount of time on the net in order to open them up. HERES YOUR SIGN. I am having fun.
Yes I did call Tex and ask him to come over to meet me and the Cowboy for dinner. Tex goes through this tiraid about how he has to be at the club on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. After he calmed down and dabed his eyes, I recommened the following Monday. So here we go, he thinks he can grace our presence, but will not commit. Says he has his Grand child. OK, I can live with that, where is the mother, I know she would want her dad to have an evening out to relax. If he can get to Omaha , he should be able to get to Greenville.
I do my best to keep the peace within the ranks, however, there are always malcontents who do everything in their power to spoil an evening designed to promote fellowship.
By the way Tex, have not heard back from Cowboy yet.

Still Looking.
