The Sheriff

When sheriff Taylor saw the docket
 He found Otis high as a rocket
 Incompetence was rife
 With his deputy Fife
 Who kept a bullet in his pocket

I don't know the show, but it sounds like a whole lot of fun, i do feel for the Sheriff though. Hugs and blessings Joseph, Jennifer.

Wonderful! Such a fun show. When it was time to take care of business, Andy knew what to do. He would tease Barney mercilessly, but was also kind to him.

I love *everything* about what you have created here. So true about "Barney Fife," the deputy. This is, and always will be, one of my favorite shows. Your words bring a big smile. :) Hugs, Brandy
