Exactly. I noticed at your page that you're Texas-born and farm-raised which I think can't but help explain your unwillingness to put up with negativity and whining. I have a similar background. Alabama-born, not farm raised but my grandfather was a rancher and my father grew up on the farm but went to college and a new career. Regardless, growing up was manners, politeness, and hard work. If people are going to throw rocks from the sidelines, it's just up to those of us still in the game to fire back, like in your post, and let them know it's not going to bring us down. Also, because I just can't help myself, <font size="3" color="red">Roll Tide!</font> ;)
