About this product

Product Information

Kinky Friedman is known for many things. He's the irrepressible future Governor of Texas. He is the "oldest Jew in Texas who doesn't own real estate." And he is notorious for his outrageous one-liners.Cowboy Logicis a distillation of the very best. Complimenting Kinky's timeless maxims are illustrations by the brilliant Ace Reid.   Kinky's "Little Red Book" is a compilation of his hilarious, insightful, and raunchy one-liners. Organized into sections including: Cowboy Logic; Things You Would Never Hear a Real Texan Say; Blessings, Curses, & Other Observations on the Condition of Our Condition; All Politics is Yokel; Kinky on Kinky; The Continuing Adventures of God & Man; Treasures & Pleasures; Advice to People Who Are Happier Than I am; The Great State of Texas; Love, Marriage & Other Hopeless Causes; Writing for Fun & Prophet; and Animal Crackers.   Some of Kinky's bon mots include:   There's a fine line between fiction and non-fiction and I believe I snorted it in 1976.   When the horse dies--get off.   Always respect your superiors, if you have any.   Where there's a will, there's a lawyer.   A happy childhood is the worst possible preparation for life.   Trust me. I'm a Jew. I'll hire good people.   Happiness is a moving target.   As the old cowboy philosophy of life sums it up "Hang on tight, spur hard, and let'er buck."

  • Why Not Kinky?

    If you know and love The Kinkstah you'll appreciate this short volume of his (and others) wit and wisdom. Having had the honor to meet the man himself on numerous occasions, I was disappointed that my favorite "Kinksterism" wasn't included - "Jesus and I (Kinky) are basically the same person - we're both Jewish, never had a real job and roam around the country irritating people." , but apart from that I enjoyed the book immensely. You could definitely do worse for a read while taking a Nixon.

  • Cowboy Logic

    The book was for my husband and he chuckled all the way through it. It gave him a lot of laughter. He enjoyed reading the book for its humor. He had requested I get it for him for Father's Day. He will keep it and read it again, possibly share some of the comments with his friends.
