  1. Note 1: (filters! Real men do not smoke filtered butts, what's the matter with you, FOOL!)
  2. Note 2: soaked in water overnight in the dogs' washtub, that was actually one of those galvanized cattle troughs - nothing was too good for his 'dawgs'. (Jealous of his dogs, you say Damn right, I was! He never hit his dogs and they didn't have to swat flies for him!)
