STAMPEDE!! Some Cowboy facts & sayings (from the USA) + "The Statesman" has a blurb on it

OK...after a quick Google of "Cowboy Facts" it seemed that our southern neighbours had more interest in them than we did, so just in case you're heading out to Stampede, & why wouldn't you be?...you can check out these bits of invaluable info - just in case you end up in a trivia contest.

http://www.thethomasranch.com/thomas_ranch_037.htm is the place where you can not only find out all about Cowboys (& Cows too) - but also find some great Cowboy Sayings that might just come in handy this week: http://www.thethomasranch.com/thomas_ranch_087.htm

There's also a page with 28 Cowboy "jokes" - although they're more like words of wisdom - that include: Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

For "The Statesman" piece on our City & Stampede go here: http://www.statesman.com/life/content/life/stories/travel/06/22/0622albe...

Happy & Safe Stampeding everyone! If you have to wait for a cab...WAIT! Don't drink & drive!!!
