Cowboys everywhere,
but which ones are the real deal?

This is the time of year that some people pull out
their Wrangler's and their boots and pretend to be
cowboys.  I mean it.  I know people who have boots
in their closets that are only worn during
the Red Bluff Round-Up Parade.
What's up with that?
I think we need a new line of non-cowboy clothing.
I want these people in t-shirts that say things like:
Cannot Ride Horses
Cannot Rope
These hands have never mucked a stall
These boots have never stepped in
...
you get the idea.  We need to know who's who.
For example, the guy who wore the boot skates to
your left is not a real cowboy.
I am slightly concerned that all of the excitement created by the Round-Up has caused our
local crime rate to increase.  Just last week, The Daily News reported that the residents at
Brentwood Convalescent Hospital had been mooned by two men.  
I guess these two pressed their redneck butts up against a window at night.   
(I'm willing to bet that these men were not cowboys.  Can you picture a cowboy doing that?)
I wonder what the poor people inside thought?  Even scarier, who on earth would do such a
thing?  Oooh!  I have a theory!  Maybe these two guys were from another rest home.
Maybe people at rest homes, like frat houses, do this kind of thing to each other all the time.
I can picture two old men heading home with their walkers yelling, "Up yours, Brentwood!
We want our mascot back...and our diapers!"

Someone else stole two boxes of latex exam gloves from St. Elizabeth Hospital.
This person will be prepared should they get mooned?  Who are these sick people?
They're from Red Bluff.  That should scare us.

Here are some pictures from the Firefighter's "Fill the Boot" Drive
as they collected money to fight cancer.

Way to go, guys!
See you at the parade!
