Monty by Jim Meddick for May 11, 2022

As they would say in Texas, he’s all hat and no cattle.

We’re about to hear knots landing.

A cowboy doesn’t wear his hat indoors, pilgrim.

If you think roping wastepaper baskets is hard, try milking them.

I thought this was a sleepwalking thing.

An untangler wrangler…

Maybe he should try macrame.

‘’Take the hat off in the house, boy.’’

Learning roping skills… The last person I dated who said they wanted to learn roping skills did not have anything related to cowboys or cattle in mind.

You mean, you want to learn how to untangle.

What a noob! He’s not a real cowboy like me who just recently bought some ostrich skin boots and had my white cowboy shirt pressed at the cleaner. And don’t call me a rhinestone cowboy, either!

Untangling is a valuable skill to have: Christmas light strings, ear buds, charging cords, extension cords. The list is virtually endless.

♪♫ “I got rope that tangle, tangle, tangles…” ♪♫

Good thing Fleshy isn’t around!!!!!!!!!!! :)

How does this fit into the sleepwalking plot?

Anyone can wear any kind of a hat.

Monty is all hat and no cattle, pilgrim.

For men that live west of the Mississippi River, it’s part of their tradition, so it’s OK. But those men that live on the east side of the Mississippi wearing a cowboy hat just look silly.

Only our Monty! Talk about an “urban cowboy”! He can’t even lasso the wastepaper basket!

Monty is a klutz (among other pejoratives)….

Oh, what a tangled rope we weave.
