I think either one of those two men would help a family if they knew they needed it and that means a lot these days. You know, a lot of people get a few dollars ahead in life and they forget who the poor man is. I had rather have friends with money who will talk to me like I'm human than having them run around in Botany 500 suits and thinking they're better than I am. Oh well, loved the show. Can't wait too see more. The only thing negative I have to say is, I wish, since I am a licensed auctioneer, that i had been the one to sell the oil finding rooster at a small commission rate. lol. no matter what we do in life, you will always have negative remarks. As for me, I like the positive side!!!!!!! - Steve WilsonComments re article 59119 Joyce Coomer Some people are getting above their raising 2013-04-25 04:03:58 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback Birthdays and Anniversaries for April 25 Happy Anniversary, Barry and Pam Kermeen (1981) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday Ron Richardson | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Brooklynn Paige Mitchell (2003) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Cassie Mitchum | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Emily Green | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Gerald Chafin (1961) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Hunter Cundiff (2000) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Jessica "Little Bit" Murphy (1990) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, John Carter | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Justin Branham | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Kenny Buck Downey | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Kim Karnes | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Leslie Bryant Rogers | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Reagan Helm | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Rhonda Redmon | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Rodney Parnell | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Roni Virginia Kemp (2017) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, W.
