The Cowboy Museum

Hello, my name is Tim and I am the head of security for The Cowboy. I have been asked to take on the additional duty of social media management while the museum is closed. I’m new to this but excited. My team will also continue to protect and monitor the museum. Thanks, Tim Send pic.twitter.com/bPiXD9DoAd

The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City has closed to the public, but they have an exponentially-growing presence at Twitter. See, they gave their social media responsibilities over to Tim, their security guard, and he's having a heck of a time figuring out how to use Twitter.

Thanks for all the tips, Friends. Realize I have been doing the hashtags wrong. I need to use that pound sign from the phone. I’m learning! Here’s his costume from True Grit from 1969 courtesy of John Wayne Enterprises. #HashtagJohnWayne Thanks, Tim pic.twitter.com/AZu7EidGu2

Luckily he has his grandson Lucas to advise him.

Lucas, can you read this?

This is some truly genius performance art, but that doesn't make it any less funny. Really, #HashtagJohnWayne is returning results. You can follow Tim's Twitter adventures at the museum's feed, or check out the highlights at Boing Boing.
