Hey - Don't leave me out. I go to Irvine and Clay City all the time. About an hour and 40 minutes. Kind of interesting that the city of Richmond is wet and Madison County is dry (sale of alcohol)

I was a maintenance man for a school district for 35 years, during this time we raised cattle and did some row cropping. Some where we got the idea of planting pine trees in 12' rows over bahaigrass pasture and this was a dual purpose use of the land. Cows grazing around the growing pines just made sense. About half way through my school board career, my "cowboys" all went to college and never returned. That left me and Momma to work the cows and that led selling of the herd and thus I became a "Treefarmer".

In another discussion forum, a lifetime ago ...

I was using another handle, but discussions of my weekend ranching duties led the others in the forum to start calling me 'Cowboy.' One of my posts, I hate to admit, was particularly pessimistic, and someone there called me 'the Blue Cowboy.' Some other wiseacre made a crack about country music and the 'cry-in-my-beer' mentality of some of the songs, and said "There ain't no blue as blue as Cowboy Blue." As it happens, I had just read something about a real cowboy back in the frontier days known as Teddy 'Blue' Abbott, and I had a liking for the dark blue color of the Dallas Cowboys blue jerseys ... a color I had begun calling "Cowboy Blue."

So - .... I changed my handle there to CowboyBlue, all one word, two caps. I have used CowboyBlue in other forums, too.

BUT ... when I got HERE to AAPK, and on e-bay, CowboyBlue and Cowboy Blue were both taken, so I took 7130 instead of Blue ... 71 and 30 are meaningful jersey numbers from my athletic days.

So there you have it! Er, so there I am!

Cowboy,
As I recall, #30 was Danny Reeves and I am struggling with #71. My hero was Bob Lilly but he was #74. So give us a little help here.

71 and 30 were my jersey numbers, in football and baseball.

***

Indeed, Dan Reeves was #30. Off the top of my head, the only two Cowboys' 71's I can recall were Andy Frederick and Mark Tuinei. Frederick was a journeyman lineman; Tuinei started out as a defensive tackle behind Randy White, made the switch to offense, and became an All-Pro. Unfortunately, he had some bad habits and died of a drug overdose a few years ago.
