I'll look into it. All I watch is old westerns anymore.
And, I'll have you know that a cow puncher going by my name was dry gulched, shot in the back in a Louis L'Amour book!
It was prolly Airforceoneton who backshot me. He rolls that way. Or, maybe Woodglue. Could have been either.

Lol! Hopefully, it'll take em a while to get to this one! I have a very young grandson, and a son who needs to pay for his raising.
I already have the duck call that the grandson needs to blow every morning when the sun comes up. He just needs to get old enough to understand the concept. It's a waiting game now.

There is a TV show called neighbors that is a reverse Archie show, very funny.
