Gentlemen!  Spare a kind thought for all the defenseless sheep out there just trying to grow wool and contribute their share to the economy.  Being a sheep is not all it's cracked up to be and don't believe all those lonely shepherd stories.  It's not all wild nights, baa-ing at the moon  Smiley.


Are you familiar with the Tom Selleck movie, Monte Walsh? There is a scene where Monte (Tom), his buddy Chet Rollins (Keith Carradine) and Shorty Austin (George Eads) are discussing the caboose on the widow Wilder. If you know the movie as well as I, you will understand the reference when I say we were giving a kind thought to the sheep. If you are not familiar, let me know. I'll send you a PM.  Wink  Grin

Guess I'm showing my age but the version I saw starred Lee Marvin and, of course, the book by Jack Kramer who also wrote another good western, 'Shane'.  Keep in mind my charter membership in the 'Little BoPeep club of America' so watch what you say  Smiley.
