Texas Buzz Cackler

Should have made a video of the Texas Buzz Cackler. Mike called Kadizzle and said there would be the regular gathering under the willow tree at the lake. After a pleasant hard downpour the lakeside gathering was nice. A bunch of old goats sit by the lake and cackle. At some point a barrel shaped woman with a baseball cap and glass decided to tell the story of a huge bull elk in her yard. Apparently the bull elk was suffering from the heat, and panting while resting. The Buzz Cackler got a bucket of water, two carrots, and an apple for. the elk. Apparently Mr. Elk had eaten much of her yard plants. The elk was so tame she petted him on the nose. Over and over the Buzz Cackler said how big the rack was on the elk. 

Now the important part of this story is the presentation. To hear an old lady from Texas tell the tale was a pleasure. At first Kadizzle guessed he was listening to an old hillbilly. There is a special way a good southern buzz cackler tells a story. They have an accent, move their hands, their eyes light up, and the whole thing is a special act.
