Ok, hombres and hombras, we are going to construct our own little PIP wild west town. Who do we need?

bartender
gunfighter
saloon owner
lawman
rancher
cattle driver
saloon gal
mayor
general store owner
hotel owner
piano player
rancher's wife
gravedigger
gambler

Your job, if willing, is to select one of the characters listed above (or another of your own) and tell us about your lives in the days of brawny cowboys and baudy cowgals.

Make your selection, write your piece, then mosey over to the poetry workshop and submit it.

I will piece them together and we will see what we have.

Could be fun, entertaining, and inspiring enough to get some created juices flowing.....maybe?

Here's a website, too, for some lingo:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~poindexterfamily/OldWestSlang.html

I stumbled with the vernacular m'self, but it's where I got my title.

I'm working on one. I thought I'd bump this back to the top to see if anyone else would like to join in.
