Ask The Cowboy

Is it time for the elusive Cowboy to step out from the shadows?

Here at Sharnanigans (like how I make out there are several people tirelessly working here? ha, well there is one, and I’m tired) “we” like to listen to what the readers want.

A suggestion has come in from a rare male reader – maybe my only male reader (give me a sign if this is incorrect??) to start a weekly feature with the “Cowboy” – thanks for this Andrew.

Andrew has suggested we hear Cowboy’s views on different topics suggesting the blogging world is dominated by the voice of women, and the good old fashioned hard working man on the land is a dying breed .

Now, my Cowboy is a quiet, reserved type – but he is willing to possibly play along here…

In order for me to convince the non limelight loving Cowboy to step up to the challenge, I need to know it is what the readers want.

So please, send in some questions for the Cowboy and the Sharnanigans team will see what we can do.

    Thank you to all the hard working crew at Sharnanigans for bringing Cowboy’s voice to the public !

    My question is this .. ” Cowboy, everyone seems to want to change our Australian ways these days because they seem to offend people migrating to our country, whats your views on this and whats your viw on what a real Australian is ?”

    Just a easy one to get things started!

    Hi Sharnanigans Team,

    I am really interested how one becomes a “Cowboy” or “Sheepboy”. Was there a yearning from an early age? Do you really sleep in a swag? Have you ever crutched sheep with your “bare” teeth. Do you even like sheep? What is it like living with an ex corporate city girl who writes poems about chinese food and fitted sheets? So many questions and this is only the start!!

      Wow, so many questions, so little time. Thanks for your question Ellen – these too will be put to the Cowboy so stay tuned.

      Many thanks,

      Deb –

    That would be awesome. It would be great to hear his side of the events in your life. I’d love to know his thoughts on when you found out you were pregnant, as obviously we have heard yours, or what he thinks of his ladies adventures in the world of blogging.

    Oooohhhh Sharni, you may have opened a floodgate of people being nosy though! Including myself!

    Also I’d kinda like to know about what it’s like to be a cowboy in a modern world!

    Wish him luck from me!

      ooooh floodgates are opening. Excellent Alice – think he is trying to run a mile…… BUT will see if we can’t answer all of these queries & more.

    Dear Cowboy,

    Seeing as I’m going to be single again in the near future, and seeing as I happen to think that Australian men are the sexiest men on the planet, I’m wondering if you could possibly round up some of your single friends and send them my way? I’d be much obliged.

    Thanks,

    Kristin at Wanderlust

      Dear Kristin,

      Cowboy is looking into freight costs for some of his friends – he will get back to you shortly.

        Delvene,

        Honestly, I think it makes more sense just to ship me out there, no?

          Kristin,

          Please send through your measurements. We are comparing freight costs. Sharnanigans is a low-budget enterprise

            Excellent – come straight over, Sharnangians said she’ll pay for it!!!

            Justin :-P

            Kristin, it is Sharnanigans, Justin is fired for inappropriate commentary in fact I might ship him over to you, he is quite light.

            Sharni,

            Perhaps I’ll pay for his shipping. Can you send me his measurements?

            You either employ children or midgets. Or perhaps oompa loompas.

            Put it this way you can call me Sharni or you can call me Charlie, Krisin, it’s just me and my factory here, if you see what I’m saying

            Hmmm… in that case, send chocolate.

            :-)

            Hi Kristin,
            We are low budget enterprise and cannot afford to post chocolate to Kansas. It’s Justin or nothing.

    Ummm, I’d like to know – are your legs really that long?

    Hello Sharnanigans team,

    I would like to hear from Cowboy regarding some of his greatest fatherhood moments over the past 17 months. You know, those ones where you are watching Monte and he does something he’s never done before and you are gobsmacked with pride, love, amazement, and above all the ever-present “Holy Crap I am his dad. I have a child.” feeling…you now what I’m talking about.
