Passing of a legend

The legendary Jim Shoulders has passed away! Mr. Shoulders passing has left a big hole in his family's heart and in the heart of all true rodeo fans! Please say a little prayer tonight for his loved ones that they may be comforted in knowing he's gone to a much better place. Service will be the 24th in Henryetta, OK.

For more on this visit the PRCA website where there is a story on his passing as well as some vintage footage of him riding in the 1959 NFR in Dallas. http://www.prorodeo.com/Story.aspx?xu=573

Boycott ALL Choice Hotel Franchises!!

Choice Hotels (Choice Hotels includes well-known brands such as Clarion, Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality Inn, Sleep Inn, Econolodge, Rodeway, Cambria Suites, Mainstay Suites, and Suburban Extended Stay Hotel.) Have been swayed by the extremist at SHARK to discontinue their support of the High School Finals Rodeo. The sponsorship was pulled because there were hot-shots used on animals during the rodeo. Please spare me your dribble SHARK. You nor ANY of your people understand livestock handling or husbandry. So until you worry more about the true welfare of animals by running NO-KILL shelters (unlike PETA who run kill shelters!) for livestock that has been truly abused, just go away and play with the city dwellers and leave us alone to stay strong as the back bone of America!

As for you Choice Hotels! I'll be canceling my Guest Privileges card this week. Hope your happy!
