Misc data and adventures of a Tayopa treasure hunter

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

It's progressing Caw. Some in here admit to 7 years involved in their book,so far I
only have part of this year committed. A book,of 360 pages = page a day. for one year.

GUILTY AS CHARGED.....
I NEED TO STOP RE-READING IT AND RE-WRITING IT.

I'M PRETTY MUCH UP TO DATE, BUT I FOUND A HOLE IN MY INFORMATION THAT NEEDS TO BE FILLED IN. THAT IS JUST A SMALL SET BACK.

I HAVE TO WAIT FOR MY EDITOR (WIFE) TO PROOF READ WHAT I TYPE. I CAN'T USE ALL CAPS THERE, SO SHE PROOFS EVERY THING THAT I ADD TO IT.

I AM WORKING ON THE COVER. THERE ARE MORE DECISIONS TO BE MADE THERE. GOTTA MAKE IT LOOK GOOD FOR THE FOLKS THAT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. THAT MIGHT SELL MORE THAN THE STORY.

I GUESS I NEED TO GO BACK TO WORK ON IT.

ITS NOT GOING TO WRITE ITSELF.

Well Get on it

 

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

THANK YOU, DEAR FRIENDS. I WILL FINISH THE RACE THAT LIES BEFORE ME.
OR I SHALL DIE TRYING.

Senor Don Jose, did you write these words: Well Get on it
As they say here, el conejo hablando de orejas……

Need we task the ruthless and cunning Senoritas JudyH y Mastiff to bring discipline to you in writing OUR long awaited book?

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

Am, am, am, Geeze, I can't write it until I put the pieces together. the actual search for Tayopa covers many years, but not continously so I have to fill in with other things which really aren't too interesting in them selves -- sides I still have 60 years to go .

Tain't like writing a one page post in here, or "Vini, Vedi, venci" one hs to fill say 250 or 300 pages @ a page or two a day.

Coure if I had Masti, Judy or Uni here to run their fingers through my hair, and fetch me coffee etc, it might help =====?

 

[doc-d]

Senor Don Jose, get writing or we will fly down Señor Crow to run his claws through your hair……
The only way you will get the Senoritas muy bonita JudyH y Mastiff is for you to write, write and write some more…….

 

[coazon de oro]

What's wrong with the Yaqui twins Compadre, don't you trust them with your hair?

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

Geeze, coro- they are already spoken for

 

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

DON JOSE, I BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN CURSED WITH LIVING IN INTERESTING TIMES. ...

 

[doc-d]

Senor ProspectorMikel……..we had better see some progress on your book also…….for after they finish with Señor Don Jose, you are next to feel the wrath and fury of the ever beautiful Senoritas JudyH y Mastiff……..
Interesting times are for writing…..

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

Doc,,don't forget out Unicorn. They say that good things come in threes, this is proof.

Don Jose,

Probably need to clarify that......somewhat. At your age, running fingers through your hair might just bring on premature baldness. You might just want to consider having them run their fingers through the hair on your back.

Good luck with that,

Joe

Don Jose. el saltador de Cholla, : shaddup ya unbeliever and pass me the cafe my friend.

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

I'M WORKIN'!!

I HAVE STARTED WORK ON THE COVER... I'M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT I MAY NEED A REAL GRAPHIC ARTIST. THERE IS MORE TO IT THAN IT LOOKS LIKE.

I WANT TO KEEP WHAT HAIR I HAVE LEFT, SO I'LL PASS ON GETTING THAT SCALP TREATMENT THAT WAS SO KINDLY OFFERED TO DON JOSE....

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

You finish a page , you get a cup of coffee . Pay as you go plan . More pages = more coffee .

 

[Real de Tayopa Tropical Tramp]

?? But it takes three cups per page?? gonna report you to the Authors union, ya slave driver.

Other than that, how are things going for you , my long time friend, Truckin ?
