COWBOY 1: DO I KNOW YOU? COWBOY 2: WHAT'S YOUR NAME, PARDNER? COWBOY 3: I DON'T LIKE THE LOOKS OF THAT GUY." COWBOY 4: EVERYBODY TAKE IT REAL SLOW. CIRCA 1882: THE SHORT-LIVED FORMATION OF THE TEXAS STRANGERS
This looks like a six shooter comic;Shoot – “I brought 1 gun to a two gun fight”Shoot – “I wore my purple shirt today”Shoot – “I wore my silver star and not my gold one”Shoot – “All the horse are gone”Shoot – “I shoulda stayed in the bar for another shot”Shoot – “My thumb is already stuck between my gun and holster”
I know it is a cartoon. However, in 1822 Texas was a Spanish colony with very few even speaking English. (Mexico got its independence in 1825 and Texas did in 1836.)Pistols at that time were all flintlocks.Susan Sunshine: Is there anywhere else in the world where the capital sports bumper stickers saying “Keep Austin weird” or “Keep Austin batty”? (The major bridge is home to thousands of bats.) I don’t include major politicians in this proof; if you live here, they are a tragedy.
