WTF is going on today. Even for 2020, today is bad. First, Charlie Daniels. Then the oldest conjoined twins, the Gaylon brothers died. And now, it's Ennio Morricone. And it's barely past noon! God, Ennio Morricone had some iconic music.

I made a good Clint Halloween costume, real mexican wool poncho, real stetson hat, leathery vest, the right shirt, and bandana around neck, the "slate" on rope around my neck under the poncho " Shoot for the heart, Ramon."
Had a real nice 45 holster, and a fake orange plastic 45 magicmarkered black.
And had an mp3 player under the poncho with Ennio's G/B/& Ugly soundtrack cycling through the night.

On the way home, I was a passenger,.. cops pulled us over. Designated Driver was good and sober but was asked out of the car. And then cops had flashlights coming and going.
I didnt want to reach under my poncho to turn off my soundtrack, cause I was paranoid..so it stayed playing.. More cop cars showed up, more flashlights coming up to the car and going away...15 minutes. The driver is out still being questioned. I stayed seated no sudden movements, nothing. One Statey came back to my window and I knocked on the glass, and he said, " You want to say something"..I said yes, and he quickly asked if anything was in my holster. I had earlier removed my plastic 45 over to next to me on the seat but still hidden. I moved to show him, told him it was plastic and he said " Slowly..slowly" as I picked it up and showed him the orange tip. Within 90 seconds all the cops were gone as the Mexican Standoff music played on.. the fast repetitive guitar line, the bells, then the horn cuts in.....and all ended well.

RIP Ennio Marricone
"The man that hath no music in himself, nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils. The motions of his spirit are dull as night, and his affections dark as Erebus. Let no such man be trusted."
