At this point, I need to pause and explain about a game we played at the Cussin' Tree. We'd be lying on the ground around it, leaning back on our elbows, smoking and telling dirty jokes when all of a sudden one of us would say, "Hey ya'll would you give an eye to see a..." and he'd say something so gross or obscene it can't be repeated here: if it was really awful we'd hold our noses and make gagging sounds. But if it was something so sexually graphic we would sit up and lean toward the speaker with our eyes stretched wide and excited and begin to talk all at once, "My gosh, say that all over again...Damnation that's, that's...Oh my, Oh my...Do you know any more like that?" well, when you got that reaction you were hands down the gross subject champion for the day And for certain someone would say, "Well, I'd give an eye to see that."
