I wanna be a cowboy!

They say that once you admit you've got a problem, you're half way to the cure. Well, I'm not sure I want the cure but here goes. I just love to drive my bus in to truck stops and Cracker Barrels, and the like and get out and walk around in my cowboy boots and big belt buckle. I joined the Texas Prevosts just to get that really cool decal for the coach window. (If you haven't seen one it looks like a Texas Ranger star). That might not seem unusual to a lot of Prevost owners but I've spent most of my life hanging around the water at marinas and yacht clubs since I'm a sailor and I haven't been on a horse in years. For that matter I live in a community that's as about as far from a cowtown as you can get. But damn, I wish I was a cowboy, or truck driver, or better yet, I wish I could just drive my bus from one end of the country to the other and then turn around and go again. A lot of folks plan there trips for the destination. I could care less where we're going as long as I get to drive my Prevost to get us there.
Am I the only one out here who wants to be a cowboy?

Your thoughts.

Hey Buckaroo,

At least I know who to call for a relief driver on my long trips.

I better add some "jerk" buffalo to my menu in case you come East.

Mango

I used to live in WESTERN NY. Does that count? I have cowboy boots.

Did you see Mango's picture? He sure looks handsome.

Steve,

I think you have confused being a cowboy with being a cab lizard (not to be confused with a lot lizard).

I would hate for you to pull into the Cracker Barrell and have someone say, "There's old Steve; big hat... no cattle.":rolleyes:

Mango now has a daily Avitar? Wonder who that sharecropper is?

Mango's mechanic. But boy is he good looking. And intelligent too.

I think the expression is "All hat, no cattle" but who cares. It was good enough for the President.

Jon...Cowboy boots from western New York? Can you imagine that. Were you really from the western side of Jamestown?

That almost sounds like the Picante sauce being made in New York City... GET THE ROPE !!!!

All of a sudden Steve has the hots to drive his coach. What happened? Did the boat sink?:D

Actually Panama, NY. But saying that confuses people so I say Jamestown.

Even Lucy said Jamestown, when she really was from Celoron.

Did you rally live in Elmira, or was it Painted Post or Horseheads or Vestal?

Randy Newman thinks it's;

Since I was a child
I've tried to be what I'm not
I've lied and I've enjoyed it all my life
I lied to my dear mother
to my sisters and my brother
and now I'm lying to my children and my wife
Big Hat, no cattle
Big head, no brain
Big snake, no rattle
I forever remain
big hat, no cattle
I knew from the start
Big boat, no paddle
Big belly, no heart

Damn, My wife makes me wear the bus drivers uniform while driving the Liberty. I sure could go for a pair of them boots and one those silver/ turquois western ties. But I want to be a John Wayne cowboy! Ken
