What, you know a cowboy in need of a mate?

Depends on the woman.

I thought you were more of a machinery kinda guy.
When was the last time you rode a horse?

Three or 4 weekends ago I was helping a friend move a couple hundred
head of cattle down out of the Twisselman range. On horseback of
course. I keep a lariat and my working spurs hanging on the rifle rack
in the back window of my pickup. I still keep my hand in , so to
speak.

You really dont know much about me, do you....?

Im still a member of the PRCA..Professional Rodeo Cowboys Assoc,
though its been years since I rode broncs and bulls. I dont heal as
fast as I used to....and getting crippled up now is a death sentence
for my machine addiction, not to mention everything Ive worked for
over the years. Which is why I also stopped flat tracking years ago.

I hardly even get a chance for team penning on Friday nights, as Im
usually driving home from LA while its going on here locally.

The screwed up rotator cuff in my right shoulder is the result of a
rather stupid and very embaressing ****up while moving stock. Shrug.

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling
which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight,
nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being
free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
