...then meets up with an Indian princess named Pocahotness and a horny buffalo named Alma Stextinct along the way. The treasure-hunters run into trouble, however, when confronted by the vicious Rey El Road, a railway tycoon who exploits the West of its resources and wants the coveted Grail for himself...
...rifles, from finely engraved Spanish pistols to modern Glocks, to bring home the ways in which force has always been the final arbiter in dealings between natives and settlers. Would it be useful somewhere to have that old-fashioned timeline too? Jolene Rickard, a professor at the University at Buffalo and a Tuscarora Indian, who is a guest curator, doesn't think so. "There are other places where you can learn the exact dates of the Trail of Tears," she says.

Established in 1905 and stretching over 21,000 sq. mi., it is bigger than Switzerland and chock-full of wildlife: 4,000 lions, 110,000 buffalo, 50,000 elephants.

Diana, a chunky bundle of brio, sang the Dick Powell role. Allie, a slim sylph, had the Ruby Keeler-Peggy Sawyer part...
...Mekhong Kurt, Generous George, Speedo Keith and a host of other larger-than-life characters, some of whom have been bouncing around Bangkok for decades. After more than a few fingers of bourbon, Squaronians delight in chewing the fat under the Texas Aggie flag and the moth-eaten Cape buffalo head that?alongside yellowed Waylon Jennings and Kitty Wells record covers?grace the bar's wood-paneled walls. They'll wax nostalgic over fortunes made and squandered, over women loved and comrades lost. They'll whisper of gun running in Laos, of Tet and of black ops. Tall tales...
