A question for my friends in the USA about cowboys.

by punkofnice in

as a kid growing up in the uk we used to play 'cowboys and indians' and watch high chaparal and bonanza along with other cowboy films.

later, in the 70's kung fu would be shown with caine going through the 'old west'.

we even had a chocolate bar that was marketed with a 'cowboy' theme...milky bar.. as far as i know the 'wild west' as shown on tvdidn't actually exist.. are there people that believe it did?.

he cowboys came up with great songs, like

"Homo on the range"

"..flubbin' you is wrong, I doan wanna be right"

"Doin' the cow cow boogie"

"Get your tongue outta my mouth cause I'm kissin' you goodbye"

"I hate every bone in your body 'cept mine"

" Jim Rushing was shot in the back in the streets of downtown Ft.Worth."

Not to put too fine a point on it, but he was actually shot between the post office and the hotel.

Apple Cider Vinegar

by poppers in

i've been drinking 1 tbs with a glass of water twice daily for digestion for about 3 weeks now.

i've found it helps, but it also acts as an appetite suppressant; i've lost several pounds since using it.

i'm consuming fewer calories because i'm just not as hungry as before.

So does sprinkling vinegar on popcorn feel like being at the movies when you use the bathroom?

I think we have exhausted this subject. Too funny!

"Ebola is not spread through the air" -- CDC. Yeah, right!

by FatFreek 2005 in

somehow, i don't have a warm fuzzy feeling when i keep hearing from the center of disease control, "ebola is not spread through the air ...".

ever sneezed?

the famous myth busters had a revealing show on the power of the sneeze anecdotally it has a velocity of some 35 miles per hour and travels a distance of some 30 feet.. ever traveled in the close confines of an air liner?

Gregor

CDC should be called the CYA.

I have found an enema consisting of 3 parts apple cider vineger to 1 part fresh apple juice to be effective.

You nut! LOL

I suppose the fresh apple juice sweetness offsets the sour vinegar?

When is the last time you sat in an apple orchard?

Rub a Dub - LOL

Punko - I recommend the novel and movie, Monte Walsh. It is set during the period when the traditional cowboy profession was in decline. The main title character and his buddy are both typical working cowboys who have to make changes.

It is historically accurate as to the life of real cowboys in that time.
