The Big Ole Adventures Of Cougar Maine – Introduction

Cougar Maine was a maker
He and his family lived near a junkyard
Cougar would sneak into the junkyard and get stuff
He would create sculptures and art from metal, wood, glass.
At age 10, he found a guitar in the truck of a junk car
He polished it, got new strings, a guitar book 
He taught himself a few chords
Would whistle and yodel and gibberishly sing while playing
At age 12, he befriended the junkyard owner, Bucky Chase
With Bucky's blessing, he began to rebuild an old junk truck
Cougar would gather interesting parts from other junk cars
At age 14, he faked his ID to take an automobile course online
Cougar would use his new knowledge to rebuild the old junk truck
He called it "The Big Ole Truck"
Every part from the inside and out was a repurposed part
Bucky stood back and reveled in Cougar creating "The Big Ole Truck"
One afternoon, Cougar unfolded a lawn chair in front of his creation
He picked up his guitar and started to play some cowboy chords
Out of his creative mind, he began to hum along with the chords
And then mouth the words to the song all songs
It's a Big Ole Truck
And I don't give a fuck
Yeah a Big Ole Truck
And it don't get stuck
Like it was meant to me, at that moment the wind picked up
A floppy, beat up cowboy hat tossed itself over to Cougar's feet
Cougar picked it, dusted it off, and plopped it on his head
And so began the new attitude and the start of Cougar's adventures.
