I was born in Carthage, TX and grew up on the Rusk/Panola County line.  I always had cattle growing up so I have a cattle operation of my own.  Included in the cattle operation are two hens, two horses, a Blue Crown Conuer (bird), two cats, three dogs and a sundry of other creatures.  My radio life began in Henderson, TX in 1994 during a moment of indecision about what I was going to do when I grew up.   

Favorite TV Shows:  The Andy Griffith Show,...
