9.50am/pm is known as Cowboy Time, because if you say 'ten to ten' repeatedly, it sounds like a galloping horse - 'ten to ten to ten to ten to ten to ten to ten' etc.

Soldiers, forest rangers, fisherman, and other workers who get paid in one lump sum after a long season of work become "cowboy rich" on payday. Usually connotes blowing all the money on a whoop-it-up session in town.
Those mean bastards from the Bar K ranch will be cowboy rich on Tuesday, but they'll drink all the money by Saturday night, shore 'nuff.

Did you hear what happened to Pete? The cops were trying to taser his chest but his arms were in the way, so they gave him an Electric Cowboy instead!
