Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
Tell you what!
1My kid is a second-generation Red Raider. Guns Up!, y’all.
2I had to shoo a couple cows home here in Maryland but I didn’t get to use a horse and lariat like these boys. Just an average day in Texas….
3I loved watching the men rounding up cattle and just being who they are.
4I’m 72 and I loved how many times he said “Yes Ma’m” to that young woman. I feel better……..
5Thanks for posting
6Hahahahahahahaha! Reminds me of the ranch kids in western South Dakota. They’d do the same and love it just as much. The first story-teller was really clever. It was a great story. Thank yeeeeewwwwwww!
7Used to teach at TTU — loved the students!
8Oddly, when I first went to graduate school in Lexington, KY, a load of cows got loose downtown and had to be chased down. But that’s a whole ‘nother story…
If you hadn’t shared that, I wouldn’t have seen it, and my day would have been ruined and I would’ve never known why!
9I love that the TX accent(s) I remember so fondly still exist!
10I’m a Texas Tech alum. I was there in the 60s. Being strictly a town girl I was amazed at the “local” boys. They were sons of the ranchers in West Texas, wore white dress shirts and jeans (real cowboy jeans) and boots. Of course the hats were essential. Also the empty dixie cups to spit in. They drove El Caminos. It seems not a lot has changed in 50 years!
11Love this!
JanK, I hope the cups to spit in are no longer an essential accessory, for the boys’ sake at least.
12Hah! I KNEW them Red Raiders had ta be good for sumpin asides batteries and dam’ tortillas! Sounds like those guys knew exactly what they were doing, too-good on’em! The urban car-boys? not so much, apparently!
13This was great!
