Cowboys will be Cowboys--which is why it doesn't seem odd that the Dallas Cowboys would say guard Everett McIver got a 2-in. gash in his neck from scissors during a haircutting session because of "horseplay" with teammate MICHAEL IRVIN.

Drifting among blackouts, hallucinations and long days of morphine-muted delirium, he stitches together a history for Nuala as an archetypal carefree country girl, all windblown red hair and stylized pink cheeks.
