Luckily we don't hear shootings, except the occasional rifle shots into 
the air out of trucks when the drivers had too much booze on Friday 
nights. They don't seem to realize that what goes up also comes down.

They didn't think it would be this wild. But it can. When I did EMC runs 
at CKC near Mariposa a saloon fight broke out. A real one, guys flying 
across tables, glass crashing, beer everywhere. All the tourists ran as 
fast as they could. And the music kept playing.
