Cowboy Guide to Life (Texas Humor Break)

1. "DON'T SQUAT WITH YER SPURS ON!"

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

3. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

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

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

6. Never smack a man who's chewin' tobacco.

7. Always drink upstream from the herd.

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

9. When you give a lesson in meanness to a critter or a person, don't be surprised if they learn their lesson.

10. The best way to have a quiche for dinner is to make it up and put it in the oven to bake at 325 degrees. Meanwhile, get out a large T-bone, grill it, and when it's done, eat it. As for the quiche, continue to let it bake, but otherwise ignore it.

11. Always take a good look at what you're about to eat. It's not so important to know what it is, but it's critical to know what it was.

12. Never miss a good chance to shut up.

13. There's two theories to arguin' with a woman. Neither one works.

14. If a someone says there ain't no God, tell'em to go tell the cow, she'll understand better.

Hey, no Texas-bashing from this Freeper: I'm a Texan who's IN California. Got the best of both worlds, both of which are wonderful for different reasons.

HERE'S ONE FOR YOU. ... THIS COWBOY HEADS TO TOWN ONE NIGHT CAUSE HE HEARD GEORGE STRAIGHT WAS PLAYING AT THE LOCAL HONKY TONK.WHEN HE GETS TO THE FRONT DOOR, THE BOUNCER SAYS " YOU CANT COME IN UNLESS YOU'RE WEARING A TIE." STUNNED, THE COWBOY HEADS BACK TO HIS TRUCK AND THEN HE GETS AN IDEA. HE REACHES BEHIND THE SEAT AND COMES UP WITH A SET OF JUMPER CABLES. QUICKLY, HE FASHIONS A TIE AROUND HIS NECK AND HEADS BACK TO THE FRONT DOOR OF THE HONKY TONK. THE BOUNCER SEES HIM, THINKS ABOUT IT FOR A MINUTE AND THEN SAYS " ALRIGHT, I'M GONNA LET YOU IN BUT, DONT YOU TRY AND START NUTHIN!"

I lived in south Austin once and north Austin once. I know that meant something back then, don't know if it still does. (SAHI!)

I made a couple of the Kerrville Folk Festivals way back when. I almost remember some of that.
