Dads been gone 23 years and he would have been so upset those whats going on now. I remember when he was alive he thought MF45 was a fool. He loved getting the national enquirer and thought mF45 was a jerk. Hes give me the old national enquirer and MF45s pictures had a mustache Hitler like or teeth blacked out!

(63,903 posts)4. to hear my mother talk about it, it was the wild, wild west. Pancho Villa was active then and
she would describe how when he rode into town with his band they would just start shooting out windows in houses. She and the rest of the family would dive under beds (which were taller off the floor then).
