I've added the Western Folklife Center to the links page. The site is subtitled "Cowboy Poets on the Internet" and among other things has several hours of cowboy stories, poetry and songs recorded in January, 2001, at The 18th National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, Nevada.

Well Kat, I actually had you in mind when I added it; though I know there are others interested in cowboy lore as well.
