My apologies if this has been on before. There's wisdom in these words. Not
exactly endurance related, however.....

DON'T SQUAT WITH YOUR SPURS ON: A COWBOY'S GUIDE TO LIFE

Don't never interfere with something that ain't botherin' you none.

Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

There's more ways to skin a cat than stickin' his head in a boot jack
and jerkin' on his tail.

Some ranchers raise pigs and some will even admit it. Either way,
they're raisin' pigs.

Never kick a fresh turd on a hot day.

The easiest way to eat crow is while it's still warm. The colder it
gets, the harder it is to swaller.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop
diggin'.

Never smack a man who's chewin' tobacco.

If it don't seem like it's worth the effort, it probably ain't.

It don't take a genius to spot a goat in a flock of sheep.

The biggest liar you'll ever have to deal with probably watches you
shave his face in the mirror every morning.

Never ask a barber if he thinks you need a haircut.

If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try
orderin' somebody else's dog around.

Don't worry about bitin' off more'n you can chew. Your mouth is
probably a whole lot bigger'n you think.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Generally, you ain't learnin' nothin' when your mouth is a-jawin'.

Tellin' a man to go to hell and makin' him do it are two entirely
different propositions.

Generally speakin', fancy titles and nightshirts are a waste of time.

Trust everybody in the game, but always cut the cards.

If you're ridin' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and
then to make sure it's still there.

If you're gonna go...go like hell. If your mind's not made up,
don't use your spurs.

Some things ain't funny.
