Daddy caught a grouper head once. Just the head- it had been bit off clean right behind the gills. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 That's a lovely thing about folk songs. The lyrics change, depending on who's singing it. There's a cowboy song called Streets of Laredo. When I learned it, back in about 1965, the cowboy who was wrapped in white linen had been "shot in the gut and I know I must die". Most copies of the lyrics of that song you find today say that he was shot in the breast. And I found it in a book that was published in 1914, where it says he was "shot by a greaser" (that's a derogatory ethnic term for a Mexican, in case you weren't aware, being a furriner and everything). 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a national past time- just behind convincing the rest of the world that they drink Foster's. Seriously, every Aussie I've ever met had some story about some critter like a drop bear, kangarilla rat, or black-crested emurilla bird that attacks humans at every opportunity. It ain't like ya'll aren't already giving Africa a run for its' money on the 'everything here either has thorns, stings, is deadly poisonous or can swallow you whole' reputation. There's no need to make up stuff, too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
