Unfortunately, though, I'm already fully enslaved to the lyrics: "The man who killed this ram sir was drowned in the blood / The little girl who held the bowl was washed away in the flood." So you be knowin' nothing good is going to happen on the bank of Two Medicine River. Hi Eric,

I like it!

Unfortunately, though, I’m already fully enslaved to the lyrics:

“The man who killed this ram sir was drowned in the blood / The little girl who held the bowl was washed away in the flood.”

So you be knowin’ nothing good is going to happen on the bank of Two Medicine River.

I just published a Minnesota novel (Hopes and Dreams: Stuck on AutoDrive). Two scenes take place at the Minnesota State Fair, so I'd like to suggest an ending (at no charge) for your Derby Ram story. The ram was asking to get slaughtered. It had rearranged all the 4H animals. It had exchanged the cabling between the bungee jumping ride and the Skyrail. It messed up the boxes of Pronto Pups and corn Dogs. It put holes in the fences and stood out on Como Avenue scalping tickets to last year's fair. It replaced all the lights on the Mighty Midway with strobe lights. It cheated at Whack-A-Mole; it used its horns. Crossing the Dakotas and laughing its horns off with story after story of the trouble it caused, the ram is ultimately returned to the State Fair, where everyone has forgotten the trouble it caused.
