    Default A Baptist and A Cowboy

    A Baptist Preacher was seated next to a cowboy on a flight to Texas .

    After the plane took off, the cowboy asked for a whiskey and soda, which was brought and placed before him.



    The flight attendant then asked the preacher if he would like a drink. Appalled, the preacher replied, "I'd rather be tied up and taken advantage of by women of ill-repute, than let liquor touch my lips."



    The cowboy then handed his drink back to the attendant and said, "Me too, I didn't know we had a choice."
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    A tough old cowboy told his grandson that if he wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gun powder on his oatmeal every morning.

    The grandson did this religiously to the age of 103. When he died, he left 14 children, 30 grand-children, 45 great-grandchildren, 25 great-great grandchildren, and a 15 foot hole where the crematorium used to be.

    Kate is the cow and Edith the sheep, right?

    Why would a cowboy use a plane? Surely he would be gallivanting across the plains to get to Texas (Assuming he wasn't already in Texas)?

    He was obviously gallivanting across the planes of Texas.

    Excellent observation, and the solid proof that SFTS's opening post is not based on real events.

    We're all outdone, and he makes it look so simple and straightforward too.

    Very observant indeed. Soda is so New York City that I doubt the word even exists in Texas. If Slim's momma heard him say that he'd get his mouth washed out with soap.
