  Unregistered Bull
Choice gleanings from 45-plus years of Unregistered Bull
"Gentlemen," said John, "y’all know what the subject of today’s meeting has to be, so let’s get down to business. Who wants to have the floor first?"

Pokin' Fun
If you've been watching the Oprah show you are probably aware that she has a Texas psychiatrist/psychologist called Dr. Phil who is very popular and on the show ... a lot. He usually dispenses advice to troubled couples in a homey style. His most popular phrase seems to be, "What the hell were you thinking?"

The second time my helper brought in the cow to dig out green prickly pear leaves lodged in her throat, he dispensed with the sophisticated mouth spreader and hooked a crude set of nose tongs to elevate her head and used a tie rope to pry open her jaws. (If this sounds brutal, go take a short nap or a quick bath, as rescuing pear-eating bovines is not for folks of delicate nature.)

Poor Martha Stewart. Household name, successful marketer of practical household instruction, handyman to the housewife, and bland but useful TV neighbor to millions, is in deep doo-doo because she sold $224,000 worth of stock the day before it went to the bottom of the Wall Street pool like a set of car keys.

I have a bird question for you. What bird do you consider to be especially noble (besides quail, of course!)? Now, which do you consider to be the epitome of repulsiveness? My nominees would be for the turkey and the turkey vulture, respectively. How can I be so dipolar on two birds that look quite a lot alike?
