B- Hey Ranger! I haven't had a chance to hang with you for a couple days. Lets go for a quick ride around the neighborhood.
R- Okay, Beel.
B- I don't have a halter, but I've ridden you around the corral with a loop of twine around your neck. Let's see how it works out of the corral.
R- Okay, Beel.
B- Let's trot up the road to the post office and back.
R- Okay, Beel.
B- That went very well. Lets try it again.
R- Okay, Beel.
B- One more time!
R- Okay, Beel.
B- Alrighty, now let's go up and stop at the corner.
R- No, Beel.
B- I said we are stopping at the corner, Ranger.
R- No, Beel. It is time to go home.
B- I said stop here.
R- No, Beel. We are doing dumb stuff over and over.
B- Stop...stop...whoa...halt...alto...QUIT MOVING YOU JERK.
R- No, Beel. Suddenly I can not remember what the twine around my neck means.
B- Okay you nit. We're back in the parking lot.
R- Good. Now we can go home.
B- How 'bout if we just stand here until my hands quit bleeding.
R- Okay, Beel.
B- So, why the big hurry to get back here to the lodge, you moron?
R- I knew you were very confused, and I hoped if I took you home, you would remember what we were doing. You know, when we were NOT running up and down the street like crazy dogs.
B- What?!?
R- You had lost your mind. I taked you back to the last place you had it so you could find it.
B- It was a TRAINING ride you turd.
R- Yes. And I hope you learned something.
B- I did. I learned not to ride you with a piece of twine around your neck unless I have a BIG STICK to hit you with.
R- You are mean.
B- You're disobedient.
R- Hmmmph.
B- Hmmmph.
R- Say Beel, can we go to the mountain tomorrow?
B- Sounds good. The daughter is coming up to ride Estes. I'm going to use a halter, though.
R- It will not help if you lose you mind again, you know.
B- Yeah, you're probably right. Sleep well, buddy.
R- Okay, Beel.
Ha ha ha ha, thanks for the giggle. Hope the next ride is a little more cooperative for you both. Oh, and thanks for turning off the word veri, very annoying...:-)
