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.
Give’s new meaning to the “turkey trot”!
1The lambs in the YouTubes offered after the turkeys is adorable.
2Love the cats!
3and thanks for the tip on the lambs – very cute
In my days as a feed salesman, I had occasion to encounter more than one “watch turkey”. The pecking is how they investigate a suspicious object and the kicking is nearly identical to the behavior described by Tom Russell in this song. (Note to PETAns, it glorifies cockfighting.)

Its nice to see some turkeys who are not signing petitions to secede from the USofA. They must be a good deal smarter than the turkeys we have heard so much from lately. Better looking too.
5Any sports-minded parent who has sat through an excruciating season of otherwise adorable 5-year-olds playing soccer recognize that clueless scrum the turkeys were shuffling around in.
I still remember my exact words 15 years ago this month: “What do you MEAN there’s a SPRING SEASON?“
6Since they don’t have hands, we can’t call ‘hand ball’, but isn’t ‘beak ball’ a rule violation?
And if things are that slow for entertainment, I’d head over to the nearest honkytonk. 😀
7My 19 month old grand daughter’s favorite things are balls, any shape or size, she’s here for the holidays, so I’m showing her this in the am—can’t wait to see what she thinks!
8I thought that what Molly Ivins called “the Lege” is what passed for entertainment in Texas, but there are certain similarities, including the soundtrack.
9Rhea, I believe Molly called the Lege the best free entertainment short of a zoo.
10Texas Turkey Soccer??? I thought Texas entertainment was old-fashioned rodeos, football, 2-step dancing & poker!!
11no animals were injured in the filming of this game….
12Thanks darlin – Just wanted to throw a shout out for Nacogdoches’s own Clint Dempsey – who was named US Soccer “Male Player of the year.” And I bet ya’ll thought we only raised “turkey’s” in East Tejas. Interesting that he is near-worshiped around the world as one of the greatest players playing today, but most English speaking Texans don’t even know who he is or take pride in the fact that he’s one of our own. Now back to the humor….. Sorry Jaunita
13That would be hilarious regardless the state … North or South, East or West … I’m sharing on Facebook! Thanks for a good grin this morning!!
14Like the ancient Aztecs, the losers of this game will be sacrificed, headfirst into the cone of death, while Sarah Palin sips coffee in the foreground.
15Okay, my grand daughter enjoyed this–if stealing my iPad while yelling “ball” and laughing, then watching it again–and again–she understands pushing the arrow for play over and over and she was clapping with pleasure, following the ball with her finger–it was an all around hit at my house this am–thanks for the posting, it’s a family Thanksgiving tradition now!!
