THE HARD STUFF from THE LETTERMEN

“Sometimes kid the well really does run dry. And when that happens there ain’t no sense in pumpin the handle til your palm bleeds or in dipping in a different bucket.

You just let the well fill fast as the well will fill.

The Truth of it is that everything else is purty much beyond your powers of persuasion anyhow. That’s just the way it works in this world. Learn that and even the hard stuff will likely soften after awhile. Even if it don’t, you will.”

From my Western, the Lettermen

MEN OF THE MODERN WEST

The Men of the (modern) West want a Sally Knight to ride forth and do Good and Justice in the world. It’s just that most of them always want to be the Sally, never the Knight.

BRILLIANT WESTERN INDUSTRIAL SCULPTURE

Being a Vadder and an amateur Industrial Archaeologist I could not help but love this guy’s work. True skill and brilliant craftsmanship. And as a man with a deep interest in the West this is staggeringly good.

My father was an inventor and tool and die maker. He worked in metal his whole life.  God he’d love this.
