The Lone Ranger

I have embarked on an excursion, one that many think has unobtainable expectations, destined for disappointment. But I disagree. I am going to bring the cowboy hat style to the streets of NYC. I will wear a cowboy hat consistently and document my observations of others reactions and sightings of cowboy hats.

Q&A

Anonymous asked: There is a snake in your boots. Whatdoyoudo?

I’m glad you asked.  Many people have come across a snake in their boot and there really is only one safe way of getting it out.

Step 1 - Find an African Honey Badger
Step 2 - Throw snake ridden boot at the African Honey Badger
Step 3 - Watch in awe as the African Honey Badger rips the head of the snake off and eats its body.
Step 4 - Retrieve boot while avoiding the African Honey Badger and press “9” to continue. 

The hardest thing associated with these tactics is being able to avoid the African Honey Badger.  If you can master that art, you’ll never have to worry about a snake in the boot again.

The Power of a Cowboy Hat - (12/6/10)

This past Monday I went to a local Staten Island bar, Big Nose Kates, to watch the Jets on Monday Night Football.  To my surprise, the bar was jam packed!

I strolled in wearing my cowboy hat, and received a couple of questions about the MNF broadcast.  Turns out not to many people know who Hank Williams Jr is. 

It was taking upwards of 20 minutes to get drinks…for people not wearing a cowboy hat!

The bartender caught a glimpse of me waving my hat from down the bar and almost immediately served me.  I didn’t abuse this privilege, because I’m a gentleman, but I was asked by others around me if they could borrow my hat for a quick moment.

I went from being the laughing stock of the bar with my cowboy hat and leather bomber jacket, to the owner of a coveted, mystical, silent, bartender whistle, that could fulfill all your alcohol related needs.

Lesson Learned: Always wear cowboy hat to crowded NY bar.

South Bound R Train Encounter

  • Guy1 (to me): Yo, what are you listenin' to?
  • Me: Right now, Brad Paisley.
  • Guy2 (to me): Is that some country shit?
  • Me: I guess you could say that.
  • Guy2 (to Guy1): told ya! 20 bucks son!

  • This is occurred around 620ish tonight and could potentially be my favorite entry so far on this blog. The 2 guys in this story got on the train at the 8th street stop and went into Brooklyn. Ghetto-like kids that looked like they modeled themselves after Kid Cudi, which is fine by me.
