(05:25):
I haven't asked you about your fishing. I haven't asked
you about how things are out the house. How is
your fishing well?

Speaker 3 (05:32):
On and off? Ralph.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
I've been fishing quite a long time, and it's anybody
that goes fishing noses.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Sometimes you catch them, sometimes you don't.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
And I do probably a little better than average because
I've been doing it doing it quite quite a long time.
So if I catch them, great, and if not, it's
just nice to be out.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
And did you run the boat up on a concrete
ramp in the middle of the night one time?

Speaker 3 (05:57):
No, that wasn't me. That was Harlan Howard.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
He ran He ran it up on it so fast.
He was going so fast that it got went way
up on the ramp, and he didn't even know it
was near the He could have it could have been
a rock bluff for all he knew. And he said
the first thing he did was he got her out.
We got out and looked around and see if anybody's
watching has embarrassed him to bed?

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Did do many of the country music stars fish?

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, I fish a lot with uh, oh, I don't
know Mel Tillis and I uh border wagoner Jerry Reid, Uh,
Harlan Howard and my old fishing buddy and uh we
get out uh running to each other quite on.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Floyd Kramer, he fishes a lot.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
I took whaling fishing once, Uh with fishing with spring lizards,
and he couldn't stand to touch him.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
He got real funny. As a matter of fact, I
hooked his wife's His wife had on a had on
a a wig, and over top of that she had
on a wool wottle thing, little wool hat. And I
ran back to make a big cast and hooked that wig,
and the wig flew and the piece of wool went

(07:14):
one way, and she had her hair pinned down. It's
quite a trip, quite a trip, quite a very interesting.
I think William's too nervous to fish.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
How about Willie Nelson? Is he a fisherman?

Speaker 3 (07:28):
Not that I know of, nothing that I know of.

Speaker 1 (07:31):

one thing is standard on every Ford pickup, toughness. They're
built Ford tough, all of them, and for seventy eight,
they're even tougher to beat because Ford has added a
whole string of options to make these tough pickups easier
than ever to drive. And that's good news for you
and for the gall in your life too. Here are

(10:50):
some of Ford's new optional features for seventy eight. A
new tilt steering wheel, new four speed overdrive transmission that's
great on the highway, New Lariot cab interior that's the
living and in comfort and looks. New Cbee radio with
concealed transceiver and all controls in the removable mic. New
comfort heater and ventilator that really pours it out, new

wants to make it easy for you to drive a
tough pick up. So does your Ford dealer and his
easy prices prove it see him this week for sure.

everybody relate to, at least I can traveling around and
doing what I do a lot. And it's about a
lot of people think that folks in show business, you know,
it's all just one big flash and glamor and.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
Just one huge party. But that's not true.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
And the song tells it probably closer to the way
it actually is. It's called too many nights alone.

Midnight flights and bar room lights.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
And roaring for three days nights.
