Muffler Men Mystery

So I'm in the 'States' again. Happy to have arrived back safely, we had fun and I promise pictures and even a video of underwater life soon.

One of the first things that I did when I arrived home was to check out the blogs, to see what happened that I missed. This included new chairs, haircuts and the gazing ball in Wyoming... It also included the discovery of a very intriguing mystery. My mom went to a rodeo. (not a mystery) She saw a cowboy and well read her blog. So I needed to see the one in Kittaining to verify that she was indeed telling the truth (I'm not sure why cause my mom isn't really the lying type, especially I've never known her to lie about cowboys) So I googled 'cowboy Kittaining' and low and behold I found him... however I also read a blurb on the page I found him on that said there was one identical to him in cowtown NJ, this lead to more googling and I found the history of the muffler men. You should read this if you were in any way interested in 20 foot fiberglass cowboys from California.
And just food for thought, what causes you to bid on a 20ft fiberglass cowboy? Maybe this is what miss Brenda needs for her yard. No one would notice the lack of vegetation. it's like one step up from a gazing ball. :) But what would he hold?
