never paid him much attention as he was the middle of 17 siblings.

older brothers and sisters thought he was an idiot and the younger ones were afraid of him.

As a result, he spent a lot

of time talking to his pet turtle.

His 5 years in grade 6

heard the noises he was making.

It sounded like a bunch of

OM45GE - Posted - 03/17/2021:  03:22:03

maniacs beating garbage cans with metal pipes.

That may actually

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/17/2021:  08:26:20

start a new norm if others join in.

Seems that they

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/17/2021:  08:53:39

took their act on the road for 6 months.

They sold garbage cans at their performances

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/17/2021:  10:29:04

and lost money.

They realized

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/17/2021:  13:32:55

that they were getting ripped off somewhere.

After that they

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/17/2021:  14:11:08

quit selling garbage cans.

The leftover

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/17/2021:  17:59:25

lids they kept and continued to play their music.

Last weekend at their last gig

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/17/2021:  20:40:04

they had to refund the audience their entrance fee.

Garbage was thrown at them from the peanut gallery

OM45GE - Posted - 03/18/2021:  03:31:22

and peanuts were thrown at them from the garbage gallery.

It was readily apparent that

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/18/2021:  11:24:02

the unsold leftover garbage cans would be useful after all.



They raised the price

OM45GE - Posted - 03/19/2021:  03:12:19

and added the word ‘vintage” to the sign.

Apparently people will

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/19/2021:  08:32:12

pay a premium price for products that have been laying around collecting dust.

Meanwhile

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/19/2021:  08:56:01

the Williams gang was outrunning the posse.

A they neared Deadman’s Gulch

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/20/2021:  01:01:04

they decided to split up as the posse was closing in fast.

They figured

OM45GE - Posted - 03/20/2021:  03:48:50

they didn’t need to outrun the posse, they just needed to outrun each other.

That wasn’t very brotherly thinking, but

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/20/2021:  03:54:26

a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

I’m not sure

OM45GE - Posted - 03/20/2021:  05:35:39

what that is supposed to mean.

Every time I’ve had a bird in my hand

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/20/2021:  06:37:23

I’ve only managed to get my one free hand in the bush.

Usually

OM45GE - Posted - 03/20/2021:  06:44:00

that’s the last thing I remember until I wake up in a strange place.

What’s really strange is

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/20/2021:  08:17:15

Slim Pickens astride a rocket.

I’ll never go to the movies again

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/20/2021:  11:49:24

especially if they don’t sell Jujubes and Red Hots.

Stale popcorn

OM45GE - Posted - 03/20/2021:  12:14:11

gives me heartburn and the aftertaste is disgusting.

It’s almost as bad as

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/20/2021:  13:41:57

pickled sausage at Grim Jim’s Bar & Grille.

Jim butchers

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/20/2021:  15:28:11

his own hogs and sells bacon and hams on the side.

He also uses the

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/21/2021:  06:25:30

hocks to make Cajun pickled pork hocks which he sells in quart jars.

Their popularity

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/21/2021:  09:22:10

waned during the “cloven-hoof-eating” boycott.

Of course, Buford and Billy Bob didn’t care

OM45GE - Posted - 03/21/2021:  09:47:13

because they were strict vegetarians.



The last time they ate animal products

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/21/2021:  11:47:21

was last week when they ate the mystery meat special at Jimmy’s Lunch.

Just after they ate

OM45GE - Posted - 03/21/2021:  16:31:47

they were both smitten by explosive diarrhea.

Fortunately, they were

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/21/2021:  16:34:31

near Fred Ziffel’s outhouse.

Trouble was, Arnold

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/21/2021:  17:34:26

was already passed out in the outhouse and it was only a one seater anyway.

From there they

OM45GE - Posted - 03/22/2021:  03:13:27

ran with an amusing clenched-butt waddle to a nearby grove of trees.

Unfortunately, a young couple was

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/22/2021:  06:43:46

engaged in an episode of torrid and unfettered copulation.

Not inclined to bother them

OM45GE - Posted - 03/22/2021:  07:09:13

Buford and Billy Bob decided to impersonate cows and defecate in the open field.

Several of the neighbors captured the moment on their smartphones and immediately

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/22/2021:  07:11:25

posted them on Facebook and Instagram.

They became overnight sensations

OM45GE - Posted - 03/22/2021:  07:14:57

which normally would have pleased them greatly.

However, reading the comments

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/22/2021:  12:59:42

it became painfully obvious they had become wildly popular for all the wrong reasons.



Then and there

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/22/2021:  13:01:49

they swore they’d get even with Jimmy and his so-called “SPECIALS”.

They decided to Booby-trap his

KyBanjo - Posted - 03/22/2021:  15:25:47

office instead of the kitchen which was the larger of the two.

However his office was

OM45GE - Posted - 03/23/2021:  05:17:47

being used as a set for music videos.

They were extremely

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/23/2021:  07:39:12

happy to learn they could record and video their recently composed song “My Reefer Broke Down”.

They then sent it

OM45GE - Posted - 03/23/2021:  11:02:52

to every music producer in the town.

That was

Pick-A-Lick - Posted - 03/23/2021:  11:50:20

how they attracted the attention of the local vice squad.

The word “Reefer”

chuckv97 - Posted - 03/23/2021:  12:10:37

, unbeknownst to vice squad gumshoes, denoted Buford’s refrigerated semi trailer.

So they frisked them
