    Default Cowboy Dharma

    Howdy, Pardners!

    Here's a few tips from the Western Way:


    Don't squat with your spurs on.

    Don't interfere with something that ain't botherin' you none.

    Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

    The easiest way to eat crow is while it's still warm.

    If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.

    If it don't seem like it's worth the effort, it probably ain't.

    It don't take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep.

    The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you shave his face in the mirror every morning.

    Never ask a barber if you need a haircut.

    If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.

    Always drink upstream from the herd.

    Generally, you ain't learnin' nothin' when your mouth's a jawin'

    Tellin' a man to git lost and makin' him do it are two entirely different propositions.

    If you're ridin' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there with ya.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

    When you're throwin' your weight around, be ready to have it thrown around by somebody else.

    Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back.

    The quickest way to double your money is to fold it over and put it back into your pocket.

    And, never, ever, miss a good chance to shut up.

    Too cool Another Bob. Reminds me of another sharp shootin, honest to goodness low rider - Mr Gene Autry and his cowboy code:

    The Cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage.
    He must never go back on his word, or a trust confided in him.
    He must always tell the truth.
    He must be gentle with children, the elderly, and animals.
    He must not advocate or possess racially or religiously intolerant ideas.
    He must help people in distress.
    He must be a good worker.
    He must keep himself clean in thought, speech, action, and personal habits.
    He must respect women, parents, and his nations laws.
    The Cowboy is a patriot.

    LOL, I just missed a chance to shut up Thanks AB, the good old days had some grand ideas. Get ready to drop a tear !

    Thank you, Friend!

    Yep, gave me a good shivver -- Good ol' Gene!


    Here's a few more yip-yaps:

    The mountain lion gives the deer its speed.

    Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.

    Everything works out in the end. If it hasn't worked out, it's not the end.
