All Hat, No Cattle

Texans have a phrase, all hat and no cattle, to describe a phony cowboy, someone who adopts the dress and the talk but doesn't know which end of a horse is the front. Looks like I may have found one in the St. Louis airport Saturday morning while waiting for a flight to Philadelphia, which doesn't have a CDPB and certainly deserves one. (I may have sparked interest in a PHL bartender last night.) Can you make out the Nikon tag on the bag on the floor?

By the way, this is my first post of a picture outside the St. Louis city limits. Ready for a St. Louis civics lesson? I thought so. The City of St. Louis is a city within the State of Missouri. It is also a County of the State of Missouri. However. St. Louis County is a different county of the State of Missouri, completely surrounding the City from the Mississippi River to the north and around to the river on the south. Got that? The mailing address for many but not all places in STL County is still St. Louis (true for my home in the County). So, I have decided that anything in St. Louis City or County is fair game for this blog.
