"Acme Saloon in El Paso, Texas"

Sounds like a place Wile E. Coyote would open to entrap the Roadrunner.

I apologize for being such a sucking up sycophant, but, doggonit, Jason, you took me on a Trip today. First I found myself listening to the Old Ranger introducing Death Valley Days, then I daydreamed about that old Dylan album, finally came back to my senses for some cowboy deja view. I'll be re-reading this one. You're the tops, pops.

Haha. Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

For me, I hear the old Time Life Western Series commercial. I'm probably the only one that remembers it but they always mentioned outlaw John Wesley Hardin who once "killed a man for snoring too loud." It's stuck with me for 40 years.

"He Killed a Man for Snoring too Loud". I'd love that on my tombstone - even though my ashes will be elsewhere.
