A Bird in the Hand is Worth Two Cowboys in a Hat

Something strange happened to me the other day. My coworker, who is usually painfully shy and bashful around the women in the office, came to work with an unfamiliar demeanor. Not only was he swaggering when he walked in the door, but he also went out of his was to tip his cowboy hat to each lady he passed on the way to his desk. What’s more, he was even wearing a chunky silver belt buckle, engraved with the words “Cowboy Cool.” When he sat down at his desk next to mine, I noticed he had a rosy glow about his cheeks and a playful winking about his eyes. In fact, half the ladies in the office couldn’t help but stare in awe at his new-found cowboy grace.

At first, I was a little shy to ask him how this transformation had taken place. When I finally got up the courage he told me it was all thanks to his Old West hat.  I should’ve known. Now all the women keep talking about whether it’s true, what they say about a big hat.
