I saw the movie about Lane Frost a few years back, "8 Seconds".
I have no clue about the word origin. I heard it as a child, and just absorbed it into my personal word bank.
It's funny how you use words. I think I only used the word when I was around my relations who used it, in a similar way to how people use different words and phrases at work, home, or other places.
I used to be in the Army, and I had one vocabulary for work, and one for home in those days.
Next time I'm down in the southern part of the state, I'll do some snooping around.
Maybe I should ask around at some rodeo message boards.
Hope I provided some mild amusement. I mostly lurk.
Thanks to all who responded.
