'Small-Change' Zeno:
[as they enter a saloon]
Ace, I'm so hungry I could eat a stirrup strap. Ace Andrews: You think that's a bad idea? Now, you take a nice stirrup strap, fry it in bacon grease, let 'er simmer down till she's just nice and brown, smother it in onions... mm! 'Small-Change' Zeno: I'll say it's not bad... hey, whaddya mean, not bad? [Ace lets out a big laugh] 'Small-Change' Zeno: You're laughing and I'm dying. See more » |
