Thanks a million @sultnpapper. It was hard work. Are you @janton's nephew?

No I am not related to @janton , never have met the man before joining #steemitbloggers as a matter of fact. What might lead you to ask that question?

It's like waiting for a bus here. I never met a Texan then two come along at once! 😄Had to ask the question. Are you into bull riding as well?

No, I enjoy watching bull riding but I never have climbed on the backside of a bucking bull. There isn't a problem with the getting bucked off part, I used to break two year horses to ride when i was young and getting bucked off happens.
The reason I never got on a bull was because once the get you separated from them they come looking for you, and that is where most of the injuries happen, rodeo clowns are good at what they do at the bigger pro rodeos, but the further away you get from the top tier rodeos that less quality the clowns are, the call them clowns but they are really bull fighters and the ones at the "backyard" rodeos as we call them just might not be as committed to saving the rider as the ones at the upper level.
So with all that explaining done, the short answer is, I was just chicken.
A chicken with some common sense.

a man getting up on a 2 ton beast and trying to stay on is not my idea of bravery . Something else in mind but not bravery. Is there room in your chicken coup?

I am a free range chicken so the place is wide open.
