A Cowboys Guide To Life:

 

Don't squat with your spurs on.

 

Don't interfere with something that ain't botherin you none.

 

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

 

The easiest way to eat crow is while its still warm.

The colder it gets, the harder it is to swaller.

 

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

 

The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with

watches you shave his face in the mirror every morning.

 

If you get to thinkin you're a person of some influence,

try orderin somebody else's dog around.

 

Always drink upstream from the herd.

 

Generally, you ain't learnin nothing when your mouths a-jawin.

 

Tellin a man to git lost and makin him do I are two entirely different propositions.

 

Good judgment comes from experience,and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.

 

When you give a personal lesson in meanness to a critter or to a person,

don't be surprised if they learn their lesson.

 

Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back.

 

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

 

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

 

Never kick a fresh cow chip on a hot day.

 

Never drop yer gun to hug a grizzly.

 

Never smack a man who's chewin tobacco.
