Chuck Connors in "Branded!" (Click to hear cool song!)All but one man died
There at Bitter Creek
And they say he ran away (note running reference)
Branded! Scorned as the one who ran
What do you do when you're branded
And you know you're a man?
Wherever you go for the rest of your life
you must prooooove
You're a man!
(Extra points if you can tell me when this ran!)
And Branded! is quite in keeping with this informative flyer sent to me by one David of "Adventures in the Thin Trade." (David has, quite obviously, not been well lately. Feel better, real soon, David!)
Ah, the good ol' days!

Oh, God. Crap from the past. I remember Branded; I could sing the theme without clicking on the link. Pathetic.
The Good Wife's Guide left my skin crawling. Grrrr. Don't question his judgement? He is the master of the house? You have no right to question him? Question this! (Imagine middle finger pointed to the article.) We so needed the Women's Liberation Movement. Thank you Betty Friedan. May she rest in peace.
no...that can't be real...
For the extra points: he ran before knowing....he is man. He had many doubts: a girl, a boy, a wolf, a robin, a fish.... So he ran from a vet to a psichologist, from a doctor to a counselor. At last he understood his real nature and didn't run anymore.
The following I learned in 2nd or 3rd grade and I can not think of "Branded" without having this diity start playing in my head...Stop! Please stop!!!
"Stranded, stuck on the toliet bowl,
what do you do when your stranded and you don't have a roll?
To prove your a man you just wipe with your hand, stranded, stuck on the toliet bowl!"
I'm so sorry...my childhood was less than all quality....
Chuck Connors...a couple other tidbits...the former 'Rifleman' was drafted by the Brooklyn Dodgers and played one season with the Chicago Cubs as an outfielder...rumor has it he also played for the 'other' team...not that there's anything wrong with that (in my best Seinfeld voice)
