Knowing Rush some as a teenager going up in Cape Girardeau, MO I have trouble listening to him. I don't think he believes half of what he says, he is just an entertainer.
I got through another time a few years ago driving down the highway but Bo didn't like what I wanted to talk about. He disconnected me. it was on "Open Line Friday". I can't remember what I wanted to say.
I once sent peanut brittle to a famous gospel singer and a box of the same to a famous TV family of Apostolic background.

I have known Danny Willis and his family for over 30 years.
I have a friend who's hands were used in the movie "Angels in the Outfield".
I know a few members of the Gateway Chorale.
Allan Oggs was my cousin.
I have shaken the hand of Kenneth Haney.
I shook the hand of either Gerald Ford or Jimmy Carter. Can't remember which as I was about 4.
I personally met George Ryan, the former IL governor now serving time in prison, back when he was a nobody in office. I didn't like him then either.
I know the circuit judge for this county. Had his sign in my yard until recently.
I think that's about all the famous people I know.
Let me see-

I refereed a paintball game for the Carolina hurricanes team, the year before they won the Stanley cup.
Met them all in person, chatted for a while and blocked a few paintballs when a few of them were getting overshot.
You'll never guess what question one of them asked before going onto the field......
"Will it hurt if I get hit?"
I looked at him and said "Dude..... you're a professional hockey player, and you're wondering if a paintballs gunna hurt?
Of course the whole team got a great laugh out of that and ragged him for the rest of the day.
Kenneth Haney, Anthony mangun, Wayne Mcclain, Charles Mahaney, and several others have signed a Bible that I will be giving to my son one day. I've met them all and shaken their hands.

I once roped and dragged a bull out of a bad thicket on the old Hensely place that nobody else would ride a horse into.
