Thankee .. I was not certain if that was him .. I don't pay a lot of

attention to the actors .. especially the activists. But I do like the

gud ol' Kuntry & Western folk .. if they are nice folks. :-)

I hugged one once .. naaa .. twice it was. One time some wild dawgs in

El Paso got after my butt .. another time I was trying to pull a John

Boat up onto some ice that was too thick to break but too thin to hold

my weight .. and the dang thing slipped out from under me. Water was

cold fer'shur .. but I'm still here. :-) Butch
