There’s nothing quite as humbling as unwarranted
notoriety, and there’s no other feeling I know of quite so grand! The older we got the more cherished we
became! Every time Hangtown had a
parade, they insisted we forty-niners lead it off. It didn’t make no difference that we never
panned out nothin’! Just being a
forty-niner was enough. All you boys are
simply wasting your time, struggling to be doctors and lawyers, just sport a
big beard and a red flannel shirt, and in Hangtown you’ll go far! OBIE’S QUEST
