Hmmmm

I'm not quite sure the point to this story... other than “there's always an opening for a cowboy.” We've read a lot of things for this class, moth of which I got the point. This one was just kind of silly to me. The man gets old working for who I thought to be an old couple, but they are siblings. The lady hits on him and gets mad when he isn't into her like that, and she stops making him pies, except on his birthday.
The old sumbitch doesn't care what happened in the hand's past, and that is rare these days. Most people judge you based on you past and the stupid decisions you've made. Lord knows I've made my fair share and have been judged based on them. I don't think this is fair at all, so I kind of admire the old sumbitch in the story for being able to ignore the past and trust someone who has never wronged him.
