I don't gripe to you, Reiben. I'm a captain. There's a chain of command. Gripes go up, not down. Always up. You gripe to me, I gripe to my superior officer, so on, so on, and so on. I don't gripe to you. I don't gripe in front of you. You should know that as a ranger.

That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road and when I got there, I thought maybe I’d run to the end of town and when I got there, I thought maybe I’d just run across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I’d just run across the great state of Alabama, and that’s what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean and when I got there, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going.

One day it started raining, and it didn’t quit for four months. We been through every kind of rain there is. Little bitty stingin’ rain…and big ol’ fat rain. Rain that flew in sideways and sometimes rain even seemed to come straight up from underneath. Shoot, it even rained at night.
