| July 2013 - Lying in wait | | 1) Heyes lies waiting to be transported to Wyoming and twenty years in jail – but as he’s alone, he no longer cares. | | 6% | [ 1 ] | | 2) A crack shot is lying in wait for our boys – he lines up his sites, squeezes the trigger – but what happens next? | | 0% | [ 0 ] | | 3) Kid Curry decides while he finds out who is targeting Heyes – the safest place for the dimpled one to lie in wait is in jail. | | 6% | [ 1 ] | | 4) A sleep deprived Kid Curry is lying in wait for an annoying – and persistent – woodpecker. | | 31% | [ 5 ] | | 5) “Hey, Kid!” were his last words. A writer lies in wait to make us think! | | 6% | [ 1 ] | | 6) Our boys are lying in wait. Specifically, in soft mattresses in Waite, Texas. | | 0% | [ 0 ] | | 7) Wait for it – wait for it. Since there’s already a glut of lyin’ Heyes, our dimpled one is playing Wheat. | | 25% | [ 4 ] | | 8) All the gang are lying in wait for a train. Will Kyle get to blow the safe? Will Billy get his gal? | | 6% | [ 1 ] | | 9) Heyes – alias Sam Flagg - is lying in wait for the final drop. But, is there something familiar about that undertaker? | | 13% | [ 2 ] | | 10) Mabel the cow will be lying in wait for another cowboy – as our boys could catch but not keep her! | | 6% | [ 1 ] |

| Here I am, here I am!!! Did you miss me?? Awwwwwww... (Who said 'No' ??!!) Anyhooo - Big thank you to Maz for standing in - and what a great challenge topic she set!!  And great stories too - thank you to all the gals who wrote and shared. Now of course, it's time for us all to 'lie in wait' and see how the bandanny votes fall... Which story tickled your literary taste buds?? As always! All the writers are winners - the bandanny is just for frantic competitiveness - I mean fun! So, if Ghis and Grace - who's stories are not polling - will sew the split bandanny back into one piece... It's time for everyone to exercise their democratic duty.... | |

| Hello again...
We have a winner...
(Dah dah dah dah-dah)
It is....
(Dah dah dah dah-dah)
A very friendly red-head...
(Dah dah dah dah-dah)
With natural rhythm
(Dah dah dah dah-dah)
And fine plumage
(Dah dah dah dah-dah)
Now, I'm not quite sure who won - and the last thing I want to do is guess wrong, so in the fine spirit of aliases I will send my contratulations to:
Woodina Woodpecker !!!
An annoyed Kid and a Avian guest star - what's not to like??
Be assured, the bandanny - rather like Thor's hammer or Arthur's sword - always finds its way to the rightful winner. And - this months comes with an appropriate feather trim.

And - RosieAnnie - so near and yet so far. Take an extra long ex-outlaw hug when the boys do their rounds of all our lovely writers. | |

| I didn't win? I set the challenge and I didn't win?  What went wrong? I made sure I rigged it so that...I mean cheated so that....I mean set a fair poll.  Sheesh, guess that dang cat woman didn't show me how to cheat after all.  So congratulations to the bird woman of devil's hole!  Yay the Woodpecker
