No Cowherders Wanted
I hear a gang of buffalo hunters got together recently in a saloon in Dodge City to discuss ways and means of keeping their sculps onto their heads whilst collecting pelts, and purty soon one of 'em riz and said, You mavericks make me sick.

I had never even saw a buffalo hunter before, because it was the first time I'd ever been that far East. I
