Bocaraton Barbara At the oklahoma roundup Set yourself down and I'll tell you about a rodeo back in the old west, The toughest cowboys gathered to compete, and when the dust settled, the two best were deadlocked in a tie. Haney Jackson: A half breed Ripsnorer from colorado, Touch as cactus. Boca Raton Barbra: A lady from th east but one mean cowpuncher. What a ruckus over how to break the tie - they were dead even in robin and ripen, Then Grab made her challenge. BarB: How about one more event- the restaurant -walk race! Haney Knew he had to accept. Here's how it worked: Barb and Haney start at equal distances from a mock up storefront of Michael's the only restaurant west of the Mississippi that served cobb salads. When the start gun sounds, its a race to the door to give their name to the hostess---and get a better spot on line for a table. BLAM Need ice in your veins, I tell ya! See, you can't run-- just a brisk walk -- and ya gotta pretend to be oblivious to yer opponent. Haneys got longer legs , but barbaras got the moxie. They're about to collide, and Barb keeps pumping her legs, but haney breaks down at the last second and looks at her! Disqualified! Thats right -- the oklahoma roundup was lost on the flick of an eyeball, and the victor declared -- boca Raton Barbra! Marble cake and decaf on me!
