TXTibbs - What a humbling compliment!

I don't know if anyone is really interested in personal information - but I will be 80 yrs old next year ( :shock: :shock: E-Gad - I can hardly believe what I just wrote!?), have been married to the same terrific all-suffering lady for 61 years, have three sons ages 60, 58 and 55, had 7 Grandchildren (one died at age 11 with Brain Cancer

:cry2: ) and three Great- Grandchildren. I have been blessed to have been involved in MANY diversified activities in my life, both business and recreational, have dealt with literally thousands of people in various activities and have learned a LOT about human characteristics. I thank God that I was raised on a farm and had the opportunity to get an Ag degree, teach Ag for a few years and work with beef cattle and beef cattle PEOPLE. Then I changed carrers and went back to 4 more years of College, and practiced Chiropractic of 35 years - an incredible learning experience. It is a shame that our young people in this country, for the most part, live in urban areas and don't know squat about life in the real world!
I watch a great deal of RFD-TV on television, and the FFA activities and Conventions tell me that if America has even half a chance of survival in the years ahead - the training of the FFA and those young people will have a lot to do with it! Their vigor and enthusiasm bring tears to my eyes. (Maybe I'm just gettin' old! :shock: )
Thanks for your interest. I hope I haven't bored everyone. :roll:
