Many a kiss I’ve had before, But most of them were better.” The lovely victim said, “Now, Judge, Here’s truth right to the letter. We’ll hear the victim’s story first, Lest our verdict seem duplicitous.” They rode him down, And said, “You clown to hang you is our duty, And then before you start to smell, You’ll go before a jury.”īut the judge spoke loud to quell the crowd, Saying, “Let’s not be precipitous. The men of town with fuss and frown, Organized a posse, Armed to the teeth to catch the thief, They shouted, “Giddy up, horsy!” Alas, he kissed her on the cheeks, Smack, smack, smack, smack, smack, smack! He seized the fairest by her ears, Revolted, she drew back. The ladies scuttled, shrieked, and swore, To run from him was no use. The Buncom Bandit galloped up, Upon his fiery cayuse. One day the ladies came to town, Hosted by Connie Fowler, Had they known what lay in store, They’d have run for a solid hour. Most bandits then stole cash and gold, To purchase all life’s blisses, But the Buncom Bandit risked it all, Just to steal some kisses. Yes, then our hills were stained with blood, and pity ne’er was felt, There were only Five Commandments, And the law swung from your belt. Here it is:Ĭome gather round me, Buckaroos, And I’ll sing you a song, Of the bad old days in Buncom, Way back when we were young. Roberts penned a new ballad to commemorate that last sighting of the Bandit. On that particular occasion, he was said to have known the victim beforehand. In 1979, Terry Gilliam was unable to set up the film Brazil, therefore proposed a family film. Considered the last frontier of the United States, Florida during this time is raw, untamed, and just beginning to be drained for land reclamation. Time Bandits is a 1981 British fantasy adventure film co-written, produced, and directed by Terry Gilliam.It stars Sean Connery, John Cleese, Shelley Duvall, Ralph Richardson, Katherine Helmond, Ian Holm, Michael Palin, Peter Vaughan and David Warner. The Buncom Bandit was last observed in September 1992, when he suddenly appeared on his horse among a group of ladies touring Buncom. This capstone presents the first five chapters of an historical novel about the life and legend of John Ashley and the group of men who make up his alleged criminal gang and reign in south Florida from 1911 to 1924.
“Most bandits lust for cash or gold To fund a life of idle bliss The Buncom Bandit risks it all To steal a lovely woman’s kiss.” Time Bandit is about to steal some of your time away, too. It dabbles literally everywhere, and is a total blast to play. Time Bandit, however, doesn’t get stuck in a single them of fantasy. As he dashed away, along with the lingering effects of the kiss the lady would hear his parting call: Time Bandit ultimately inspired and informed the Atari legend Gauntlet to some degree (as did Tutankham before it). Leaping from his horse and pulling the mask from his face, he would take the lady in his arms and kiss her soundly on the lips. Unsuspecting, the masked rider would suddenly swoop down on his victim, always a fair lady. Legend has it that once upon a time a highwayman roamed the hills and trails around Buncom.
