Why the name Ranch Chimp? it was in humour because, science says that humans have similar DNA to a chimpanzee,so I felt some way related biologically to a chimpanzee. 2nd, everytime I was out of Texas on a vacation or for whatever reason I’m always asked things like, do I live on a ranch?,or have cattle? so I commonly call Dallas the Ranch. "Politically Depressed" was also humour inspired by the 1993- 2002 Bill Maher TV/ tele show "Politically Incorrect".

DAN WALLRATH: .... a "HEROES HERO" .... and my choice for "TEXAN of the YEAR" ....
No ..... I didnt know a thing about Mr.Dan Wallrath and his personal mission until I just happened to catch this on CNN .... as a "CNN Hero" .... even though I live in Texas (imagine that!). But when it come's to folk's like Mr.Wallrath .... I'm certainly impressed. Just from what little I know of the man right as of this moment, I can say that he is my choice for "Texan of the Year", and a much needed "Hero for our Heroes" .... and looking forward to reading up more on Mr.Wallrath later.
These two short video's .... pretty much sum it up .... THANK YOU SIR!

This man is indeed a hero. Why don't we hear more good news stories like this?
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this great story!
Your welcome Mr.Silverfiddle! You ask why dont we hear more good news stories like this? Well .... reckon cause there is such a saturation of negative stuff going on .... that it's like a "gold rush" with the media tryin to keep up with it .... cause negativity sell's "copy" well also (unfortunately). But yes .... Mr.Wallrath is obviously not one to just sit around waiting for this incompetent government to do anything (kind of a Texas spirit actually) .... and just take his own action's.
ReplyDeleteLater Guy, thanx fer droppin in .... ya'll take care
