\ I ran one of those adventure-race 5Ks last weekend. You know, the ones with like 12 obstacles scattered throughout? Anyway, it was super hot, and I’d gotten a cup of water from a medical lady after the first obstacle. (She just asked me if I wanted one, and I was all, “Sho!”) Anyway, a girl behind me was wondering where I got it, and the guy she was with just theorized that maybe I’d been carrying it from the start. “She’s got really steady hands,” he said. I turned, and waggled my other hand around and said: “Yeah, but I shoot with this hand.” Made my day, anyway. \ ---

“Mongo seen things Sheriff Bart not believe. Choo-choos on fire near the quicksand bog. Mongo watch glow worms in dark near phony turnpike gate. All those moments lost in my brain, like rain in tears. Time to punch.” Genius! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/blazing-saddles-question-mongo/627022.md?page=2)
