Howdy!
Thanks for returning to our Western Word of the Day column. The next few weeks I'm drifting a little bit away from what we think of as truly "western" words to focus on some other vocabulary term that I've learned and wanted to share.
Going on a Bender - to drink too much alcohol; binge drinking; drinking for a long period
Origin of the term: To bend the elbow to drink whiskey in more frequent drinking
