Had a meme passed to me the other day.
"The Gambler" passing away during this time was his most "know when to fold 'em" moment ever.
RIP.
Whether intentional or not, you filled in the blank! Keep up the great job. You’re helping us make it through this long stretch.

Funny misheard song lyrics are always fun to mention.
I once thought it was
“You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille, FOUR HUNDRED children and CR@P in the field!”
Kenny had a big ranch just outside Athens near Colbert. I remember driving by it circa 1985 and seeing the big Arabian style horse barns. Burt Reynolds lived in Loganville just south of highway 78.
