Bertie is in a singin' mode today and is a hummin' and a strummin' the old Gene Autry tune Back in the Saddle in honor of da Muddermark being back in the Teapot Tuesday saddle drivin' the wagon train of tea partiers to greater heights of creativity and story tellin'!! Yeeee-haaaaaaw! I'm so happy yer back, Muddermark!
Listen' up:
I'm back in the saddle again
Out where a friend is a friend
Where the longhorn cattle feed
On the lowly gypsum weed
Back in the saddle again
Ridin' the range once more
Totin' my old .44
Where you sleep out every night
And the only law is right
Back in the saddle again
Whoopi-ty-aye-oh
Rockin' to and fro
Back in the saddle again
Whoopi-ty-aye-yay
I go my way
Back in the saddle again
Don't I sing purty?
I'm so 'cited to be at the tea party agin this week hepin' out Miss Kitty by providing Marshall Dillon with a brand new saddle so Festus can saddle up his horse fer him and deliver him to the weddin' alter to finally marry Miss Kitty! Talk about a man with his feet in the molasses!!! These two have had a love affair for nigh unto 40+ years, if I did my cipherin' correctly!
So why don't ya'll come on over to the tea party in the Teapot Tuesday forum and join the shindig! I'll be a-flingin' my rope today, ropin' in all the li'l doggies to bring 'em on home to the range. That be cowgirl speak for playin' miss matchmaker. Lemme know if yer in need of one of them thar ruggedly handsome cowboys to spice up yer life. I see a few others have brought the Wild Wild West man, so there might be some cat fights over him.

This is not my comment!
Hi, did you have a good ride over, did you see that stagecoach being held up? Yah, some goofball started a rumor that it was loaded with brand new sets of Wild Wild West!
Okay, here is the scoop, don't go in the saloon! Whatever you do! Somehow a big brawl broke out, I heard Miss Kitty stole a pink scarf off a new cowboy, someone knocked over her new out-house, another cowboy spilled a french sauce that the chef brought on the new wedding dress Miss Kitty purchased and a fireman is is hosing everyone down! The last thing we need is you flinging your rope, specially cuz you've never really been very good at it. You remember the time you roped yourself and hung yourself in the rafters of Elmer's barn? Hey, just trying to keep you safe girlfriend!

Snort! You do sing purty! You are always a singin' You shoulda been an American Idol! I would vote for you! Although once Simon got wind of your slingin' you'd be out! I will help you work on that though if you really wanna be a Gene Autry! Just needs some counseling, that's all!
On a serious note, thank you so much for the kind words and for helping to keep Teapot Tuesday going! You all did such a great job! I appreciate it! This card is awesome and guess what? I think you can actually send it to some one normal!!

Forty years!! Well, either Matt is a cradle-snatcher, or Miss Kitty has had some pretty good surgery done - or even both. I think you've probably come closest to the teapot with that stamp. Perfect masculine card, perfect card for celebrating Gertie being back in the saddle again. No wonder Bertie is singin' instead of flingin' this week.

Well, Muddermark is right, this card could be sent to someone normal. Do we know anyone normal????? Not those who are flingin' stuff, or stealin' scarves, or gussyin'up outhouses....I think Normal around here is simply NOT! I love your card, and if I ever find a normal human being, I'll let you know!!
