This here house whut Jason Larry barricaded hisself in. Wuz it one of them mo-bile homes? Reckin he finally give hisself up cause he was outta beer and done started to sober up and realized whut big trouble he done got his ass into. Specially since he done threatened to kill him a preacher man an’ all. Reckin Shawna wuz dresst in short shorts and a halter top when she went a’ tearin’ up the road with Baby Bubba? Don’t yew jist wish you coulda seed all that carryin’ on? That Jason Larry sounds like a real catch. Shawna must be so proud to be married to sich a fine man. **hq** I laks yore version much more better’n that there newspaper story. It used a lot of them high falutin’ werds. I’da got out muh dictionary to look up sum them werds but I got it holdin’ up the coffee table whur one of the legs done broke off. ---
