or peace, so 1 beat it. ‘Then there’s the devil horse. Every cowboy has a devil horse, a ■ beast that no one walking or t crawling has ever been able to t ride; a fiery-eyed, no-good, snorting brute that has maimed a dozen i men and sent another dozen to eternal peace. Arriving on location, the devil horse is awaiting me, naturally. , “Let’s see you ride old Satan,’’ J they sneer, “like you rode that • critter in that picture.” , Patiently I try to explain that it . was two other guys who rode that critter; two world champion cowj boys who aren’t happy unless they are breaking their bones. But not . d hope. I “Don’t kid us," they clamor. “We seen you, didn’t we ? Go ongo ahead and ride old Satan. * You get the picture? It’s either ’ letting old Satan have his evil way ’ with me or run the risk of having my jaw pushed apart by a halfdozen cowhands. I usually settle • for the devil horse, in the frail ' hope I will be lucky enough to only 3 break one leg. . Not long ago I was in a strip 3 restaurant, a high-class joint, buy- ’ ing a drink for a friend I hadnt ‘ seen in 10 years. We selected a f table In the darkest, most incon--1 spicuous corner, and were just on ’ the point of ordering when two ladies started fighting at a table 1 a good discus-throw away. I It was interesting but th* headb waiter, a friend, advised me to get b out before I was drawn into• any- • thing, so with my friend I left the b place until the fight was over. Re- » turning, a nearby customer asked, “Were you in it ? How did it i start?” b “I dunno,” I said, "and no, I '• wasn’t in on it.’ i “Well, you are now, one or me b lady combattants screamed, and i. before I could look around some--1 thing hit me on the head. It was • an egg, although at first I had the F impression the glutinous stuff runI. ning down my neck might be my brains. . . t The whole episode is a mystery, t Surely there are better ways of v getting acquainted than by bounc- - ing an egg on the gentleman head? And what was dn egg doing - in that joint anyway? Unescorted. s Many things puzzle me when I i go out at night.
