19th Century ghosts are just intolerable. I mean, really.
We have nothing in common at all. This guy, John Jolly, keeps bugging me about the price of cotton and pigs.

He's one of those hard-boiled 19th century frontier people. It's just so boring.

I happen to live in a town that was named after him...Jollyville; and he just really takes liberty with it. It's so awkward.

I'm serious....he is buried right down the street from me.

google jollyville, tx

this guy has to go.

1. Why cotton?
Can't grow any around Jollyville-not all that flat and mostly caliche instead of real dirt.
