CUT N SHOOT, TX - A Town Named For a Church Brawl. This story begins, as most stories about violence in Texas do, with a church. Actually, that's not true; most stories about violence in Texas begin with beer. At one of the trials, a witness was asked to describe where the fracas had taken place and, since the area was yet unnamed, answered, "I suppose you would call it the place where they had the cuttin' and shootin' scrape.". Hell's Kitchen, NY. Cut N Shoot, TX. Zzyzx Rd, CA.

Theory #3: Perhaps...

ZZYZX RD. - The Last Word in Quackery. I was on my way to Vegas this weekend when I passed the notorious "Zzyzx Rd." sign off I-15. I decided to investigate. I drove partway down the empty highway until I found a gas station with a wise, elderly attendant who had no idea about the history of Zzyzx. He also didn't speak much English. I continued on to Vegas. I had money to lose. But I promise more personal investigation in future entries. In the meantime, we have the internet. Springer moved to Las Vegas ...
