Week 81 of our regular morning feature here at Friedman of the Plains Worldwide in which we highlight the great words and works of great men and women, as well as those who are insufferable, delusional, and even fictional.
This Week Kris Kristofferson
The scene was a small roadside café
The waitress was sweepin' the floor
Two truck drivers drinkin' their coffee
And two okie kids by the door
"How much are them candies?" They asked her
"How much have you got?" She replied
"We've only a penny between us"
"Them's two for a penny, " she lied
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
With the smell of the rain on the wind
Ain't it just like a human?
Here comes that rainbow again
Bonus Kristofferson
“I think between us, Bill Clinton and I have settled any lingering myths about the brilliance of Rhodes scholars”
Rhodes scholars. One sought eminence and power, the other sought joy. Who died richer?
One my many Kris favorites. Thank you.
