TO ALL COWBOYS EVERYWHERE...
Lov it,, From my #1 SiL

TO ALL COWBOYS EVERYWHERE...
A TOUGH OLD COWBOY FROM SOUTH TEXAS COUNSELED HIS GRANDSON THAT IF HE WANTED TO LIVE A LONG LIFE, THE SECRET WAS TO SPRINKLE A PINCH OF GUN POWDER ON HIS OATMEAL EVERY MORNING.
THE GRANDSON DID THIS RELIGIOUSLY TO THE AGE OF 103.
WHEN HE DIED HE LEFT BEHIND 14 CHILDREN, 30 GRANDCHILDREN, 45 GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN, 25 GREAT-GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN,
AND
A 15-FOOT HOLE WHERE THE CREMATORIUM USED TO BE.

It showed up in my inbox today as well, acompanied by an older photo of a younger Sam Elliott.
Why is it women keep sending men photos of other men? I'd rather perfer see Sam's wife Katherine Ross.

Sam Elliott is to Cowboys,like what R Lee Ermay is to the Marine Corps.......... They're both poster "boys" to their trade.........

For the record, IMHO best cowboy IRL, my uncle - a true horse whisperer, any horse that spent even a weekend with him doubled in price, ranked in the top 10 calf roping National Seniors in his 70's, taught ALL who came by how to ride, throw shoes, rope and drink beer, lover of women of all ages, never met a critter he couldn't make friends with, and damn good at growing tomatoes. RIP Butch Wise - I miss ya.
Pretend cowboy - mmm... toss up. John Wayne or Daniel Craig - hubba hubba
