A kid walked up to a man wearing a 10-gallon hat, leather
vest, leather chaps, and sneakers.
The kid asked him, "Mr. Cowboy, why do you wear that big hat?"
The cowboy replied, "Well, son, the big hat protects me
from hot sun and driving rain, and at night I put it over my
face when I sleep on the range, so it protects me then, too."
"Why do you wear that leather vest?"
"It also helps to keep the weather off me, and it has pockets where I can keep my valuables."
"Well, why do you wear leather chaps?"
"They protect my legs when I'm driving my horse through
mesquite and cactus."
"Well, Mr. Cowboy," the kid finally asked, "Why do you
wear sneakers?"
"That's so nobody will think I'm a truck driver."
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
~John Muir
In Texas criminals are required to give their victims 24 hours notice, either orally or in writing, and to explain the nature of the crime to be committed.
