Cowboy Solution (This is Good)!



1. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.

2. Turn your cap right, your head ain't crooked.

3. Let's get this straight: it's called a 'gravel road.' I drive a pickup truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're gonna get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.

4. They are cattle. That's why they smell like cattle. They smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-10 & I-40 go east and west, I-17 & I-15 goes north and south. Pick one and go.

5. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $250,000 Combines that are driven only 3 weeks a year.

6. Every person in the Wild West waves. It's called being friendly. Try to understand the concept.

7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of geese/pheasants/ducks/doves are comin' in during a hunt, we WILL shoot it outta your hand. You better hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.

8. Yeah. We eat trout, salmon, deer and elk. You really want sushi and caviar? It's available at the corner bait shop.

9. The 'Opener' refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.

10. We open doors for women. That's applied to all women, regardless of age.

11. No, there's no 'vegetarian special' on the menu. Order steak, or you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham and turkey.

12. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use three spices: salt, pepper, and ketchup! Oh, yeah ... We don't care what you folks in Cincinnati call that stuff you eat... IT AIN'T REAL CHILI!!

13. You bring 'Coke' into my house, it better be brown, wet and served over ice. You bring 'Mary Jane' into my house, she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.

14. College and High School Football is (more) important than the Giants, the Yankees, the Mets, the Lakers and the Knicks (all combined), and a dang site more fun to watch.

15. Yeah, we have golf courses. But don't hit the water hazards - it spooks the fish.

16. Turn down that blasted car stereo! That thumpity-thump ain't music, anyway. We don't want to hear it any more than we want to see your boxers! Refer back to #1!

#11 and 12 bring back memories of the "Cattlemen's Association" restaurant in El Paso. Steak, potatoes the size of small bowling balls, a BIG bowl of pinto beans, and rolls. If you walk out hungry it was your own fault. That is how to eat out west.
 
I live in the middle of a city. Not even close to being a cowboy. But this looks all logical to me.

As a kid, I remember eating at the "Cattleman's Steak House in Fort Worth. They had large pictures of cattle on the walls and you picked which one you wanted your steak from.

Very true . . . but it IS tasty when ordered "all the way".

:wink:

NOW JUST HOW in the world would someone from Cantuck now what good is :D :D :D :D :D And another question What in the world is "ALL THE WAY". Real Chili only comes one way. Preferably in a BIG bowl
 
When I was about 4 years old we had a neighbor who always wore a ten gallon hat and cowboy boots. I asked my Mom if he was a real cowboy. She told me no he was recently arrived in Arizona from back east. :)

You made me think about my Mama. She was from a small town in West Texas & her father was a working cowboy when she was small. Later on he worked the oil fields. We would be watching a western on TV & she would start fussing. Talking about that guy ain't real. He ain't nothing but a dude. When she called someone a dude it wasn't a compliment. Things like people wearing spurs or chaps when they were just hanging around in town or other things that a real cowboy wouldn't do were usually what would set her off.
