Random Cowboyography 2

Pickup trucks - canopy, open, roll-up, or other kind of cover?

(I'm assuming every cowboy knows something about pickup trucks, horses, or both...)

None. Covers or caps are a pain in the ass. Most of my roads, and I'm being generous, are gravel or dirt. All box covers do is trap dust and limit what you can carry. If it's something you want out of the elements or out of sight throw it in the cab. If it's bigger than that, get a trailer.

Yeah but they make a really good sled for the snow...you know ,when you want to drag that extra cord of firewood home.
It is a little tough on the paint though.
I have a canopy, and I don't know how many times I've left that thing behind in Surrey, Langley or Chilliwack at a friends place, when you find that cheap set of tractor tires, or hay.
I've spent many a night in my truck box....it's a good idea at the time, until you wake up and the steel your sleeping on is -15.... I'll migrate to the back seat around 2 in the morning.

^^ Um.... are you SURE there wasn't something ELSE in your coffee??

Could have been.....I don't remember , but the odds of that are certainly in your favour of being right.
I may have needed my blood thinned out that night.

Hmmm ...

But if burning man is your thing, that's fine too.

The man being consumed by fire is a cover_pic on a calendar.

We can use it to record the reign of this Thread's rezerection.

Well in the summer I'm a firefighter for forestry ....so the "burning man" kind of has an entire different meaning around here....I suppose we will see how long this thread lasts.
In the grand scheme of my life....I suppose it really doesn't matter, but I do enjoy the company we keep here.

I don't read much more into it than that.

Why is it not easy to get into the business of beheading these days?
Because of the ‘cut throat competition’.

It's no wonder why babies are happy.....every time they cry, someone sticks a boob in their face.

Hmmm. A pass to Burning Man costs hundreds of dollars. Members of the glitterati show up there with their fully staffed gourmet kitchens.

I had something in mind more like the sort of campfire in a clearing one might comes across when walking, riding or snow shoeing through a frosty forest. You arrive in the clearing and a Sybian-like character looks you up and down, makes a decision, and hands you a chipped enamel mug of a hot, semi-potable beverage. A few somewhat-plausible tales are exchanged, and you either settle in for the night, or continue on your way.

But if burning man is your thing, that's fine too.

I did Burning Man over 20 years ago. It was amazing but all things change and what it’s become is not something I would enjoy. There are a lot of positives i’m sure but being there before the media showed up and the scenesters was all I needed.

It’s a spirit thing. I think in a past life Miss Hunter has been there or she has a spirit partner who channels to her from there.

The pockets of every jacket I use are stuffed with little plastic bags for picking up dog poop. There's nothing like being in a stiffly-formal meeting of some kind, reaching into a pocket for a kleenex, and accidentally dropping a dog poop bag on the table.

And no, I don't carry the full ones in my pockets.

 

[Addison Cortez]

tie it to the leash, silly

Oh, the dog doesn't normally find it necessary to keep me on a leash.

Ummmm....you might want to watch yourself...around here, there are plenty of women who put men on a leash for a living.
Unless of course your into that....then carry on .

I once was at a dinner party and a bundle of castration elastics fell out of my pocket....I was more worried that the gorgeous young lady I was chatting up, thought they might be size appropriate ,miniature condoms.

Hmm. Last time I passed through Kamloops, a couple of years ago, I stopped and slept in my trailer, parked in, I think it was a Costco lot, close to a casino. kamivix wouldn't stoop to haunting Costco parking lots in the dark of night would she?
