Cowboy breakfast

Cowboy breakfast is a romantic notion that it would somehow be cool to get out of bed at some ungodly hour to trundle off to the local IHOP with your buddies to capture a little of that rodeo magic by sloshing a little coffee on to your hand from a styrofoam cup.

This "tradition" without precedence nearly proved fatal to a group of rocket scientists in Webster TX in 2010, as they subsequently proceeded on to work thinking they could somehow perform tasks with a higher degree of complexity than tying a rope around a cow's neck.

Although the pitfalls may not be immediately apparent, Cowboy breakfast is the aerospace engineer equivalent of feeding a dog chocolate with raisins sprinkled on top......at 3am.
