Happy Father’s Day to the dads no longer with us, but who still check in now and then.
And to the ones here: hope you have a catch today.

On this day in 1953, Waco was ravaged by a tornado that tore through the heart of the city. The storm killed 114 people and seriously injured another 145; 196 business buildings were completely destroyed, and 396 were damaged so badly that they had to be torn down.

David Allan Coe is gone.

Climbed in that big ol’ Cadillac with Hank Williams and headed for the great gig in the sky.

Polarizing, unmistakable, complicated.

Songs that still hit. A legacy that lasts.

Rest easy, DAC.

Luke Falk shared a Mike Leach story that stopped me cold:

Two kids. One rich. One poor.

Every training camp, Coach Leach told his team about these 2 kids.

The rich kid has two choices.

Get soft. Get entitled. Expect everything handed to him because he was handed more.

Or take the resources, the coaching, the opportunities, and compound them into something greater.

The poor kid has two choices too.

Say nobody gave him anything. Blame the world. Make his circumstances the reason he never became what he could have been.

Or outwork everyone in the room.

Luke said the locker room had both. Kids from wealth. Kids from nothing. Kids with every advantage. Kids who scraped for every inch.

Same choice for all of them.

Ownership or victimhood.
Fuel or excuse.

The rich kid can waste the head start or build on it.

The poor kid can drown in the deficit or weaponize it.

Greatness doesn't come from where you start.

It comes from which kid you choose to feed.

Today is #EarthDay. It’s a national day of celebration. But for farmers and ranchers, every day is Earth Day.

They care for the land and resources. They care for their crops and livestock. They care for their families, too. All 365 days a year.

And being a farmer and rancher means shaking hands with Mother Nature. Because the sun, soil and water are their business partners.

Today, they’ll tip their caps in salute to the good earth and keep growing the food that sustains us all. Because for farmers and ranchers, every day is Earth Day.

President Trump's other inflation headache: beef.

While everyone is rightly focused on gasoline and oil amid US-Iran war, the meat market isn't giving a respite.

Live cattle wholesale prices in Chicago have reached a new all-time high, surpassing last October's peak.

🚨 INCREDIBLE! This is a stunning drone light show depicting Jesus on the Cross (the Crucifixion)

It was created as part of the “Jesus Jesus Jesus” Holy Week event by The Church on Master’s Road in Manvel, Texas.

Thousands of synchronized drones lit up the night sky during Good Friday to tell the Gospel story in a powerful, modern way.

Absolutely breathtaking!
