@WallStreetApes This farm is on my previous commute route that I drove for years. I stopped one day gave him 25 hats a couple of years ago. Very kind and gentle old farmer. He started putting up inspiring messages as part of his physical therapy after having health issues. He's a good dude.
Hal Needham requested Jerry Reed to write a theme song for "Smokey and the Bandit" (1977). Jerry Reed came up with the iconic theme song, "East Bound and Down" overnight.
When he played it for Needham, judging by his reactions, Reed thought that the song wasn't good enough & offered to rewrite the song if Needham found it unsatisfactory. Needham replied,
"You change one word, one note and I'll choke ya".
P.S: On this day, 49 years ago, "Smokey and the Bandit" (1977) premiered in New York City, USA.

WOW. Definitely worth a listen…
🚨 Trump’s Surgical Masterstroke on Kharg Island Just Ended the $10 TRILLION “Iran Terror Premium” – Oil Left Standing on Purpose!
• President Trump ordered bombings specifically on Kharg Island’s military installations — Iran’s primary oil export hub — while deliberately sparing every piece of oil infrastructure.
- Not instinct — pure doctrine: The move follows a calculated long-term strategy (Trump reportedly had Kharg Island on his radar for years), not a knee-jerk reaction.
- This artificial economic drag — created through manufactured strife and fear — has siphoned roughly $10 trillion from the global economy over decades; the strike this week marks the beginning of its death.
- By leaving the oil facilities intact, the action avoids broader disruption while neutralizing the terror-financing leverage, ending the cycle that enriched global bankers and London financial interests at everyone’s expense.
- Eye-opening history lesson“ — teachers we never had in school,” exposing how previous administrations ignored the engineered conflict and how Trump finally acted to break the stranglehold.
This single strategic decision could reshape global economics and finally bury Iran’s terror funding model. breakdown!
