From the link below:

"Texans have a phrase "All Hat and no cattle." This phrase applies to pretend cowboys that dress and talk the part, but are pretending to be what they aren't.

"I once heard Ann Richards describe her opponent in the Texas Governor's race as All Hat No Cattle. Her opponent was George W. Bush. When I needed a name for this website, that phrase immediately came to mind.

"The list below contains other similar phrases you might find laughable.

"Lisa Casey - Cartoonist

All booster, no payload.

All crown, no filling.

All foam, no beer.

All hammer, no nail.

All icing, no cake.

All lime and salt, no tequila.

All missile, no warhead.

All shot, no powder.

All wax and no wick."
