Fantastic word game

Together again with the group, Weiserguy has made a special appearance here on this fabulous Sunday to bless us with a contribution.

And it's one sentence and an unchanged bolded clue which we really appreciate. Good to see you, Weiserguy! ;)
 
Bless us with a contribution and you may just encounter a PowerWorld LLC. security guard demanding that you subject yourself to an involuntary search.

Hey, that's pretty good, HOSS. "Cowboy* Bob Orton is, indeed, a fine example of a Cowboy Bob. In this here instance, partner, I was talking about Peggy Jo Tallas, bank robber. She was caught by the flatfoots, hanging out in her motorhome, and drawing her last breath of East Texas air when she thought it would intimidate Smith County's (and DPS's) finest by waving a pistol around and thinking she could get away with this because she was an old lady.

She was wrong. Now, a rather significant footnote in the Rose City history books.
 
An involuntary search of any of the lovely young library interns will get you immediately fired and escorted from all PowerWorld properties.
 
All PowerWorld properties, or so we are told, are under the control of a "Game Czar" who runs the entire organization from inside a plush Game Czar office.
 
Inside a plush Game Czar office sits a large particle board desk, and it is on the top of this desk that a 6x10 framed portrait of a certain dairy cow sits, with glass drenched in small tear drops, put there each day after he realizes what might've been.

He can ignore her in the game, but he can't ignore that unfilled hole in his heart.
 
Passed is the opportunity for vivid fantasy played out over hundreds more pages of (T)FWG, now just one more abandoned story line, ended for good by my petite blonde intern's return from her dalliance at the ranch, leaving behind an equally heartbroken cow and a sad redneck facing long weeks of buttermilk in his cereal.

Killers recorded a track called "Mr. Brightside" a few years ago, and I've been playing it on repeat, over the Ranch's loudspeakers, in the hopes of Connie and I being cheered up.

Happy to hear that Kayla made it home safely, and please pass on my appreciation for leaving the milk pail spotless and shiny.

No cereal this morning. Would've just reminded me that my milk maid has done gone and run off, so I just went out to the coop and robbed ol' Henrietta of a couple of her butt nuggets and fried 'em up with some biscuits and coffee. Connie got a nice helping of brewer's grain from out of Rosie's Dance Hall and Saloon. It's her favorite, and hopefully will lift her spirit.
 
Copious amounts of ice cream will most assuredly lead to one hell of a brain freeze.
 
A brain freeze must be what Ed is having because he obviously doesn't remember my Welcome to TFWG speech whereby I mention who runs PowerWorld.

Ed, welcome once again to the Fantastic Word Game (TFWG as some, including me, prefer). TFWG is a division of PowerWorld, LLC which is wholly owned and operated by RadioDiscussions.com and, previously, by RadioInfo.com and Radio-Info.com. A few years ago, there was a version called TFWG2 which was owned and operated by RadioInsight.com. TFWG2 is now defunct. A Board of Governors moderates and oversees the Executive Board which directly oversees the daily contributors and operation of the game. So, Ed, there's me plus the rest of the Executive Board, then the Board of Governors, then PowerWorld, then RadioDiscussions. Ok? :)

The members of the Executive Board are:
WMC2006: Game Czar
dmargalotti: International Director of Band Camp (IDBC); Director of Early Morning Contributions
Silkie (Miss Silkie): Head Librarian; Chief Mixologist; Director of Fun; Owner/Manager of Miss Silkie's Tasty Tidbits
scanman1: HOSS (Head Of Safety and Security)
quadraphonic: Director of TPS Reports
CTListener: Director of Linguistics

When playing our little game, please begin your contribution with the full bolded ending clue from the previous contribution, as is, with no changes. Please bold your new ending clue. If you are unable to bold, we will accept CAPITAL LETTERS. Please italicize (or somehow differentiate) your dialogue from the game play. Please use one sentence and one sentence only. In honor of our late great friend, Anyacat, we will accept contributions in haiku form.

The Fantastic Word Game, the Fantastic Word Game, Fantastic Word Game, TFWG, tFWG, FWG, the FWG, band camp, topless driving, the 80s Rockfest, the new Illusions, TPS Reports, bottled water, The Lovely Olivia, The Lovely Megan, lovely young library interns, tasty tidbits, Tasty Tidbits, and bolded contributions are all intellectual property of RadioDiscussions.com (previously RadioInfo.com and Radio-Info.com).

Once again, welcome to The Fantastic Word Game (as I prefer). We hope you have a long and fruitful stay. Please feel free to come to any of us should you have any questions. And please feel free to peruse any or all of our 2,435 pages (over the last 17+ years) to see where we started, where we've been, where we are now, and where we are going. And, as always, please take us with a bit of a grain of salt. Happy Contributing!!
 
Tuesday, November 5th is 23 days before Thanksgiving.

Ain't no fish at the RCM Ranch, other than what's swimming down yonder in the cattle tank.
 
You don't have to buy any presents for Connie this Christmas, but if you find it in your heart to send one down this way, she would be ever so grateful for a new fly swatter.
 
A new fly swatter
Is useful because it will
kill those pesky flies.

Maybe it was a brain freeze... in the words of Steve Martin: "I forgot!"
I also noticed that according to official Game Czar opining, we are allowed contributions in haiku. Now I don't know anything about haiku other than it has 5-7-5 syllables. So there you have my (probably lame) attempt.
 
Kill those pesky flies with whatever you have handy, Ed, but for cockroaches there's nothing more satisfying than squishing one with the point of a boot.

Although watching Henrietta (my main hen, for those outside the know) picking one apart, peck by peck, is purdy entertaining too.

Boy, howdy. Kayla must really be putting it on the ol' codger up in Hartland. Hadn't seen hide nor hair of him since the wee hours of yesterday morning. 🤘😁
