Awe Odessa..

Land of pumpjacks, drilling rigs and Permian Football, rednecks, Dubya and This.

Oh we should be so proud. I wake each and every morning with glee in my heart and a hop in my step with the certain knowledge, everyone in the U.S.A. thinks we are all inbred mutant baboons. Although I am sure there are a fair share of those lacking certain chromosomes, I am embarrassed that the only stories that make the news are wife beaters who shoot cops and the permian douchbags panthers won friday night football.

There are a few of us who actually lead lives that don't revolve around the machismo that is this God forsaken town. Unfortunatly we're few and far between, so making conversation in hellish Walmart lines can be a tad tedious. I have learned that there are people who can kill me by "throwing fingers at my heart", retarded individuals who have won millions in high stakes poker in Vegas, and little old ladies who's husbands like them to dance naked..
I am apparently either a weirdo magnet or the mass majority of our population here is completely insane. Either isn't a real comforting thought...

I think the mass majority of this country's population is insane. You should see some of the animals that live in the apartment complex that I live in.

See that's why I could never be a cop. I had a friend who was a deputy in Green County Missouri. He finally quit after responding to a domestic call at the same damn address five consecutive nights. And it wasn't some run down duplex in the projects either. It was a nice house in a nice neighborhood. He just couldn't take it anymore. Now he's a guard at the state prison where he says its actually better working conditions. LOL

Oh and my old high school is 2-0 on the season so far and looking pretty good. ;-)

Dan said...

The Texas Rangers are investigating the incident.

What in God's name does this have to do with baseball? :)

Pookie said...

So glad we moved away from that area. Miss you guys, but not all the other BS & assfaces who live there. We have all been to other states where the inbreeding is worse than in Texas, now haven't we. Weirdness factor, maybe not. ;)

I am not happy saying I called that place home knowing that that town is proud to have such a moron running (or is that ruining) our country who also called it home, albeit when he was just a child, but still! Yeesh! *thud* jumping off my highhorse before I get started and say something that homeland security will have to bring me in on. :(

Hope you're feeling better.

"Neighbors say police had often came to home of man accused in shootout"

Um, do they teach the past perfect tense to reporters down there in Texas?

This sad incident of the officer's being killed is something which could occur anywhere, sad as that is. My heart goes out to the families of these fallen heroes.
I think the majority of people are "cool", it's the media who choses to focus on the weird and horrific stuff cause it tweaks people and gives them something to talk about at the water cooler.
*not to say Texas doesn't have a whole lot of weird going on*

Should make for an interesting visit then!

I think, on the whole, weirdness is fairly widely sprinkled all over the world like confetti but dumber.

There I am walking down through the cloud last week on a rough stony and steep path. There are an elderly couple huffing and puffing their way up towards me, he is smartly dressed in all new kit, she looks like one of the nice ones from the Golden Girls and is equally imacculately attired - new kit = newbies to walking, I reckon (my stuff as you can guess is well used!).
He approaches me first, she is 50 feet behind him slowly trying to catch up. I smile and say "Hiya" as per usual, and he asks me in well-to-do english for some help, saying they're a little lost and want directions to a place called Borrowdale, a valley several miles away. I get my map out and show him where they are, and tell him the way to Borrowdale, by which time his wife has arrived at where we are both stood.
He tells her that thanks to me, they now know their whereabouts and I smile and ask her how she's doing... to which she replies in an American accent - "I've been walking all FUCKING day, following no FUCKING paths, and that FUCKING bastard has got us both FUCKING lost!"...
Blanco, if a nun had used the "C" word to me, I wouldnt have been more surprised - such was the aura of "nice" around the lady from the outside.
That potty mouth was something else!
I asked her which part of the states she was from, and no prizes for guessing... it started with T and ends with X.

I love you guys! You have spice and cajones that we Brits just don't seem to have.

;-)

Al said...

Shit.
It also started with T and ended with S..., but had an X in there somewhere...

2007. The year Detroit retook the crown of murder capital. Not even one million in the city anymore and it still competes with DC, Chicago, LA, NY and Hotlanta and even dirty Houston, with its permanent refugees who are still pissed off. Oddessa sounds peacefull. Besides, the term hillbilly means 'a person from the Irish Hills of Michigan'. So we got you beat on that, to. Ain't no redneck like a Michigan redneck.

Anonymous said...

That's hilarious Al but it doesn't exactly make me feel better about these here parts. I'm sure Blanco feels the same, only more so.

Pookie said...

HEY MAC-why is your comment section gone on your blog??

You don't want us foul-mouthed
Fu$%ers to post on it any more. :(

Blancodeviosa said...

jay- exactly.. i would just let all the chollos and redneck wife beaters kill each other.
AND who cares about your football!
HA!

dan- i dunno..? hmm.. maybe one or the other should change their name. i'm confused.

pook- oh hell you can't be on a high horse cuz i always put you on a pedestal

pissy- i am sure we could commiserate :(

Blancodeviosa said...

i feel so sorry for the families of the three of them...

ultra toast- yes it is. so when you come you can sleep at mob's new dump.. ;o

Blancodeviosa said...

pauline- i am sure you are quite correct. it just seems worse here. i have never seen a more inconsiderate bunch of people as this state though.

al- that's fucking hilarious. it makes me so fucking proud to hear about these fucking stories! i can't imagine why we americans, err.. wait texans, are considered so fucking vulgar. I SAY! the nerve..

eric- really? i will sure to visit real soon.
but actually odessa has been the murder capital per capita once upon the time. it's the oilfield. the h2s gas and rotten egg smell makes us all crazy!

mac- yes, considering i am not truly a texan. i love being lumped into the same category, but so do you, so were even.
so how you doon bebe?
