Boy, am I sorry that this is such a crummy photo. Oh well, it was a crummy bull ride, too. I had to leave it in here because I wanted to show you that I was a real bull-rider. Probably one of the top bull-riding dobro players of all time. You're not going to see Ivan Rosenberg or Sally VM doing this sort of thing. Well, I have seen Ivan in a goat roping event.

Bull Riders are a funny lot. I think that they have a real hard time that the name of the most famous bull rider of all is Don Gay. I think they think it is counter-intuitive or something. I am not a homophobe, so it didn't bother me a bit.

Being able to hog-tie livestock can be a valuable skill in Texas.

Pretty cool, huh?
