"Hey, Bullman, Wanna Spin Me Around the Dance Floor?"

A letter to the editor in today's Washington Post that I found amusing on a couple of levels:

"As Sen. George Allen endeavors to portray himself to Virginia voters as a cowboy ['Will Sen. Allen's Cowboy Boots Fit Virginia Voters?' Metro, Oct. 8], I am reminded of an insight by eminent psychologist Robert A. Johnson, who commented on those who take the cowboy as their most virile symbol of maleness: 'Half of that word (cow) is feminine; the other half(boy) is immature. Why not bullman?' "
