"...and actually managed to catch a couple of Willie Nelson's flying kisses."


Nigel-Wright Intra-galactic Relations #8

(K)ehkashan: “Roll me up and smoke me when I’m gone!”

(P)apa Harry: “Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway-we’re the best of friends- insisting the world keep turning our way, and our way is on the road again!”

(D)addy Anwar: “I know you’d love me as long as you wanted, then someday leave me for somebody new… Worry, why do I let myself worry wondering what in the world did I do?”

(K)ehkashan: Watching Willie Nelson perform Saturday night was a spiritual blast! Absolutely awesome! Billy Bob’s Texas was the place to be! Cowtown hasn’t been brighter! I was high on adrenaline and actually managed to catch a couple of Willie Nelson’s flying kisses.

(D)addy Anwar: You do know that we actually caught up with Willie’s tour bus on Interstate 20?

(K)ehkashan: You’re convinced that was Willie Nelson’s tour bus heading towards Abbott, Texas?

(P)apa Harry: Of course he is! Given the unpredictable weather conditions lately, there wasn’t much traffic either Saturday night.

(D)addy Anwar: That was Willie’s tour bus! And I saw you, Kehk! I saw you beaming a wide smile out the window of our car!

(K)ehkashan: I am, after all, Professor Schnooki’s first cousin! Aunt Pledge sure is busy this holiday season! I can’t wait to share a Happy Meal with the Professor again! I cannot even enjoy the pickles on the hamburger anymore since the Professor’s figured out their deliciousness!

(P)apa Harry: Are you sure the Professor isn’t utilizing you as a food safety checkpoint?

(D)addy Anwar: Professor Schnooki and food safety? Are you serious? The Professor’s capable of eating bees without a single sting to the taster! The Professor’s kooky and canine!

(K)ehkashan: The Professor actually caught a couple of bumbles this summer! Aunt Pledge plans to take the Professor to visit Santa at Hulen Mall sometime soon. I’m responsible for the Professor’s designated attire for the event and all wardrobe changes.

(D)addy Anwar: Wardrobe changes? Designated attire? What’s going on with the Professor?

(P)apa Harry: Yeah, why’s the Professor visiting Santa at the mall? Are pets allowed to harass Santa randomly or is this a special time slot for people to bring their four-legged cam padres to the mall for pictures with Santa?

(K)ehkashan: The latter. Sure. Pictures with Santa. It starts at 6 PM and goes on until closing time. I’ve selected a couple of jackets for the Professor, a tweed coat and a fur coat and a plaid sweater, really seasonal and fun.

(P)apa Harry: Willie Nelson threw a couple of his bandannas and hats into the audience during the concert. Did you see the people who caught the bandannas and hats wearing them proudly as Willie kept playing his guitar and singing?  

(D)addy Anwar: His guitar! His guitar? Willie’s guitar’s got a distinguished career and is named after Roy Rogers’ horse!

(K)ehkashan: Yeah! Willie Nelson’s guitar is none other than the 40 plus years old Trigger! Like a cowboy, Willie’s ride into country songwriting and singing history was made through Trigger! Just like a Stravinsky violin! Total soul!

(P)apa Harry: How’s the music theory class going?

(K)ehkashan: I’m thinking of becoming a pastor and getting my congregants to form a choir.

(P)apa Harry: You haven’t answered the question, Kehk! And, besides, I’m already doing your algebra homework! And I’ve been a piano aficiando since grade school!

(D)addy Anwar: I’m already doing your vocabulary and grammar exercises for English and Latin! And I actually played an acoustic guitar during my undergraduate years!

(K)ehkashan: Michael Flatley must visit Fort Worth, Texas! He’s performing on Broadway currently and plans to retire afterwards, but he must choreograph and take center stage at Billy Bob’s Texas in a Cowboy-style Riverdance!

(D)addy Anwar: Cowboy Riverdancing? Brilliant!

(P)apa Harry: Billy Bob’s Texas or Bass Performance Hall?

(K)ehkashan: We still have a couple of flavors left to taste of the ice cream comeback of Blue Bell Creameries thanks to oil and gas billionaire Sid Bass. We tasted the Butter Pecan and the Vanilla, but still need to try the Cookies ‘n Cream and Dutch Chocolate varieties as well.

(D)addy Anwar: That’s still only four flavors in all. I thought there was a fifth one as well. Let me guess, could it be oil and gas reduced to the crude elements of fracking that has pillaged Fort Worth?

(K)ehkashan: The Great Divide is the fifth in Blue Bell’s lineup, the half-gallon carton divided evenly between Vanilla and Chocolate. I miss the complicated flavors, especially Pineapple, Coconut, Pistachio Almond, and eccentricities like Strawberry Banana Poundcake, Southern Hospitality, and Birthday Cake!

(P)apa Harry: Michael Flatley can try out Blue Bell and Blue Bell can concoct a new flavor incorporating Irish liquor to replenish the Cowboy Riverdancers!
