Friday night my friends Jason and "Heidi":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/02.jpg hosted a "cowboy party", which involved dressing up in all the cowboy gear you could muster, and walking into a room with "The Magnificent Seven":http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054047/ on the TV, and Johnny Cash on the stereo. Some people really pulled off the cowboy thing well, especially "David":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/01.jpg (who made his own "hat":http://feralboy.textamerica.com/?r=295336 and belt buckle out of card stock and aluminum foil) and "Will":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/25.jpg (whose family has a ranch in Texas, natch). I, on the other hand, looked like some sort of psychedelic 70s cowboy acid nightmare. I didn't have an actual cowboy shirt, so I went with this "paisley polyester thing":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/19.jpg I had, which when combined with "my hot new":http://store.yahoo.com/freestyleshop/sistspbebu.html "spinner belt buckle":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/18.jpg and "borrowed hat":http://feralboy.com/photoalbum/photos/20040109_cowboy/11.jpg made me look like a demented rodeo clown. However, I did do well in the spitting competition and was able to get a cherry pit into a spitoon from about 10 feet away. Several times, in fact.
