A long time ago, a kid and his mom were walking... ...on the sidewalk in Dallas. The kid, being 100% Texan, upon seeing some cowboys, said, ""Hey Maw, look at them thar men with them thar bowed laigs."" She said that if he didn't start speaking correct English, she was going to send him to a Shakespearean English school. A little further along, they saw some more cowboys. ""Hey maw! Look at them thar men with them thar bowed legs!"" he said. So, true to her word, she sent him off to a Shakespearean English school to learn correct English. He came home several months later on vacation. As they walked together down the sidewalk, they saw some cowboys. ""Hark!"" he said, ""What manner of men are these who wear their legs in parentheses?""
