I’d think it’s p-hacking. Meaning if he tried out many different combinations, the chances are high he’d eventually come across some which are only correlated by chance. Here’s a related XKCD:
Coincides with the release of Broke Back Mountain pretty well actually….
I’d like to think that Ram Ranch is the sole reason for this correlation.
This is the return of the space cowboy?
Fun fact: the word “spaceman” was originally used to described a journalist who was paid by how much space they could fill. Quoting etymonline com: “journalist paid by the length of copy”.
It didn’t get used to describe a person from space until the the 1940s.

space adventures and western adventures are often similar or sometimes even the same franchise because the lawlessness of space is similar to the lawlessness of the wild West.

Misread the post lolOne of us is missing something. Are you seeing a correlation between spaceman and cowboy? Because I’m seeing two Woody’s up there.
Oops, misread lmao
