I just saw some dude in the hallway here at work wearing a t-shirt with HUGE block letters on the back that said "SAVE A HORSE, RIDE A COWBOY".

Maybe he got laid off yesterday and was making a statement.

Well it certainly appeared he was making a statement. But if he had been laid off yesterday he wouldn't be in the building.

I mean if he's gay, fine, why advertize it? I don't need bumper stickers or t-shirts to confirm that I'm straight.

Well, actually - nevermind....

Well, I agree, but there are plenty of people who do have bumper stickers/t-shirts/whatever that confirm that they're straight. It's not necessarily as blatent as "I LIKE CHICKS" but if there's a suggestive phrase towards the opposite sex, then it's pretty much the same thing.

Plus, a lot of gay people base their identity around the gay community and "being gay". It's really not that different from basing your identity around anything else (biking, computers, etc), it's just that this is not as widely accepted. The people who do that, though, have just as narrow an identity as those "hardcore" computer geeks who do nothing but use the computer and associate with no one but other computer people.

Seems silly to me - why limit yourself like that? But a lot of people pidgeonhole themselves into a group they identify with and want everyone to know where they belong.

Back when I shod horses, I did business with a shop outside of Ft Worth. James, the guy running it, had a motorcycle with rainbow stickers all over it. His son kept telling him the deal and he ignored him. He got groped by some guy at the mall one day, and rather than trying to get the stickers off of the bike, he just sold it. I almost peed when he told the story.

Some guy pulls up to a red light one day with "OUT" rainbow stickers, asking if I wanted to "go out to the lake" with him and his dog. I went home and razor bladed the Apple logo off.

:dead:

Thats always how it goes here. When they come to get you they bring packing boxes. You hand in your badge, do an exit interview, pack up your belongings, and security walks you out in front of everyone. It's not pretty.

I regret not taking my pants off when I was let go earlier this month. I did go get my stuff later, because I knew my ladies would freak out.

i think it's a travesty personally. It's the not really new disgusting trend in the country that should be snuffed out before it get's more popular. Personally i think their kind should be shipped to some island with the lepers or something. i mean if you're a cowboy just keep it to yourself.

Title : Save A Horse, Ride A Cowboy

Album : Horse of a Different Color

Genre : Country


(intro)
DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM,
DE-DAA-DAAAAA
DUM-DE-DE-DUM, DE-DE-DUM-DE-DE-DUM,
DE-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAA-DAAAA!

Well, I walk into the room
Passing out hundred dollar bills
And it kills and it thrills like the horns on my Silverado grill
And I buy the bar a double round of crown
And everybody's getting down
An' this town ain't never gonna be the same.

(Chorus)
Cause I saddle up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

Well I don't give a dang about nothing
I'm singing and Bling- Blanging
While the girls are drinking
Long necks down!
And I wouldn't trade ol' Leroy
or my Chevrolet for your Escalade
Or your freak parade
I'm the only John Wayne left in this town

And I saddle up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

(Spoken)
I'm a thourough-bred
that's what she said
in the back of my truck bed
As I was gettin' buzzed on suds
Out on some back country road.
We where flying high
Fining, whine, having ourselves a big and rich time
And I was going, just about as far as she'd let me go.
But her evaluation
of my cowboy reputation
Had me begging for slavation
all night long
So I took her out giggin frogs
Introduced her to my old bird dog
And sang her every Wilie Nelson song I could think of

And we made love
And I saddled up my horse
and I ride into the city
I make a lot of noise
Cause the girls
They are so pretty
Riding up and down Broadway
on my old stud Leroy
And the girls say
Save a horse, ride a cowboy.
Everybody says
Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

What? What?
Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy
Everybody says
Save a Horse Ride a cowboy.

I can honestly say, "I don't know a single song by big and rich". They sound stupid though.
