consensus view, hell, let’s put her

1: Well that’s it, boys. I’ve been redeemed. The preacher’s done warshed away all my sins and transgressions. It’s the straight and narrow from here on out, and heaven everlasting’s my reward. 2: Delmar, what are you talking about? We’ve got bigger fish to fry. 1: The preacher says all my sins is warshed away, including that Piggly Wiggly I knocked over in Yazoo. 2: I thought you said you was innocent of those charges. 1: Well I was lyin’. And the preacher says that that sin’s been warshed away too. Neither God nor man’s got nothin’ on me now. C’mon in boys, the water is fine.

E: …what the hell is that singing?
D: It appears to be some kind of a congregation. Care for some gopher?
E: No thank you, Delmar. A third of a gopher’d only arouse my appetite without beddin’ her back down.
D: Oh, you can have the whole thing. Me and Pete already had one. We ran across a whole gopher village.
E: The blind are reputed to possess sensitivities compensatin’ for their lack o’ sight, even to the point of developin’ paranormal psychic powers. Now clearly, seein’ into the future would fall neatly into that category. It’s not so surprising then, that an organism, deprived of its earthly vision…
P: He said we wouldn’t get it. He said we wouldn’t get the treasure we seek. On account of our obstacles.
E: What the hell does he know, he’s an ignorant old man!
E: This stew’s awful good.
W: Think so? I slaughtered this horse last Tuesday. I’m afraid she’s startin’ to turn.
E: Uh sir, I’m Jordan Rivers, and these here are the Soggy Bottom Boys outta Cottonouille, Mississippi. Songs of salvation to salve the soul. Uh, we hear that you pay good money to sing into a can.
M: Well that all depends. You boys do Negro songs?
E: Uh… well, uh sir we are Negroes. All except for our accomp-uh, our accomp-uh… uh-accomp- the fellow that plays the guitar.

E: Sir, uh… the Soggy Bottom Boys have been steeped in old timey material. Heck we’re silly with it, ain’t we boys?
P: That’s right!
D: That’s right. We ain’t really Negroes.
P: All except for our accompanust.

Personal rancor reflecting that remark I don’t intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lillies of the goddamn field, or heck look at Delmar as your paradigm of hope.
Pete, the personal rancor reflected in that remark I don’t intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your general attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lillies of the goddammed field. Or hell, take a look at Delmar here as your paradigm of hope.

Thank God your mammy died givin birth. If she’d a seen you she’d have died of shame.
Thank you as well for the conversational hiatus. I generally refrain from speech during gustration. There are those who attempt both at the same time. I find it course and vular.

You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the fortune you seek. But first, first you must travel a long and difficult road. A road fraught with peril, mmhmm. You shall see things wonderful to tell. You shall see a… a cow… on the roof of a… cottonhouse. Heh. And ohh so many startlements. I cannot tell you how long this road shall be. But fear not the obstacles in your path. For fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may wind, yea your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow that road, even unto your salvation.
