April 1897

Headline:  Silverado Releases New Songbook

Not many people know it but Silverado is a very accomplished harmonica player and song writer (must have been
practicing on them lonely nights out on the range). The problem is that all the songs he writes will tell you exactly
what sort of mood he was in when he writes his songs.  See if you don't get a hint that he was having woman
problems when he put out his latest book of songs. What follows is a list of his current titles......

It's Hard To Kiss The Lips At Night That Chewed Your Ass Out All Day Long
If I Can't Be Number One In Your Life Then Number Two On You
How Can I Miss You If You Won't Go Away
I Liked You Better Before I Got To Know You So Well
I Still Miss You Baby But My Aims Getting Better
I Wouldn't Take Her To A Dog Fight Because I'm Afraid She'd Win
I'm So Miserable Without You, It's Like You're Still Here
If I'd Shot You When I First Wanted To, I'd Be Out Of Prison By Now
My Wife Ran Off With My Best Friend And I Sure Miss Him
She Got The Ring And I Got The Finger
You're The Reason Our Kids Are So Ugly

Sounds to me like we'll be seeing some of those on the Banjo Top Ten pretty shortly.........

Match director Holliday was off trying to find a shooting sport he's good at so Ragtime Kid with some help from the
Buccaneer Posse put on a six stage two posse match that had 15 cowboys and one cowgirl in attendance.......The
action pistol range was used for three stages and it will be used again for the May match which will also be six
stages.......Ragtime plans to put the stages on his websight www.ragtimekid.com  so you can look at them in
