Countdown in History: #3 The Wild Wild West

3. The American Wild West 1865-1889

Home, home at our school
Where the Swiss steak makes everyone drool
Where dissecting mice can be awfully nice
Oh, Bayside, I think you're a jewel

An ode to Home on the Range by Screech Powers....lol....The wild wild west........Yeehaw!!!!! Them some rowdy sons of bitches....Whats not to love about this time? You had the birth of a brand new nation expanding west ward bound. This was a journey were you could literally stake land and claim it yours. Also this gave rise to many of the western cities now a days like hot ass Pheonix aka Franix, AZ. Who in the hell would want to start a city in the hot ass dessert? A lot of in breeding going on there...haha j/k...

The wild west wouldn't be wild without them Cowboys robbin and stealing from the good ol folk of righteous citizens. These were the first gangs in the united states. A brotherhood of men coming together out of lazyness...Think about it? Instead of working like everyone else, they said fuck it!!!! I'll just rob the people who work for a living instead of working myself. Brilliant!!!! The fact that you could settle disputes with gun fights was insane. It was legal to kill someone as long as it was a fair gun fight. Thats nuts!!!

The west has some great historical figures that have been reproduced by hollywood movies like Tombstone. From my opinion, probably one of the best western films in our generation. Check out the trailer:




The west had all sorts of characters like Wyatt Erp,Wild Bill, Calamity Jane, Jesse James, Chief Big Foot & Sitting Bull, and one favorates Doc Holliday:


In this era you would stop in any city and more likely next to the saloon would be your convenient and friendly neighborhood whore house. They were the 7-11 of the wild west. You know you would see one every city. Anyone that was anyone had to be hanging there. It was like the nightclub scene back then except you know you were going to get some that night no matter what....even if you had to pay for it...LOL Thats when you can really have a "Dudes night out" properly, not like this:


You could be a badass and have everything you wanted with your pistol. Bitchess love that..and if you were just a regular joe then just walk over to your friendly neighborhood whore house. Excellent!!! Who wants to roll out to the wild west with me to hit up the 7-11's??? HAHA
