I have to say I didn’t know a single word. How lame is that? I was a suburb girl (still am), but in Tucson, we never got spring break, only rodeo weekend (two school days off). Jip!

Half Hitch – a mild limp. Because a major limp is known as a hitch in yer gitalong.
Pickup Man – a darn sight more fun on a dark, deserted back road than a Datsun man.
latigo – a cartoon by Stan Lynde http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latigo_(comic_strip)
PBR – the only beer the rodeo team could afford back in college.
Luck of the Draw – what Kari had absolutely NONE of last summer
Hooker – for some reason, I’m picturing Captain Kirk
Hobble – what you do on the way out of the arena after getting bucked off a cream puff, so everybody thinks it was because you were hurt.
Good Bucker – depends on whether the cowboys saying it are standing on the back of the chutes or at the bar.
Dogie – what you;ve gotta get along with…
Barrel Man – Flint. Because really, there is only one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgbJuffR7P8
