Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time time time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show is on the air. Have mercy, I'm
(00:36):
told by Tom Stark of the National Appraisal Partners with
offices in Texas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, Wisconsin. He is a
partner there, Thomas A. Stark Czar. A one to four
unit mortgage is classified as a residential loan, which requires
a far lower down payment and has a lower interest rate,
(00:56):
among other things, while a five unit more btgage is
classified as a commercial loan, which requires a much larger
down payment and has a higher interest rate. Well that
makes all sense in the world, now, doesn't it. So
she was classifying what should be a commercial loan with
a higher down payment and a higher interest rate as
(01:18):
a residential loan, so lying and claiming there are only
four units when in fact there are five. Now, when
the appraiser came out and would have said Ms James,
there are five units, not four, it says four here,
she would have said, I'm the Attorney General. I would
to heard I am redeemed and freed abanities US and
(01:39):
you will say there are four units, or I'll have
your job, because that's how it works. See rules for THEE,
but not for me. And those rules for THEE. Oh,
they're going to be stiff because we like to have
rules because then we can prosecute you and cause you
a lot of problems because we're the type of good
for nothings that get into the government because we couldn't
make it in a private sector. Jackson Lee went to
(02:01):
work at Fulbright when she ran for judge three times
and lost in the eighties. And I've talked to people
who worked with her there and Oh, they don't want
their name used. Please keep me out of it because
nobody wants to be mentioned. What if in never mind,
never mind, just never mind. Since we had to do
(02:24):
some monkey pots at STD and STI humor, we're going
to clean up the show for the last hour and
we will open the airwaves to a little more wholesome humor,
Little Southern Baptist humor. This is by Kerrie Clark. It's
called the Southern Baptist Bra.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
This man walks into a Dillergs department store, goes right
to the Lingeride department, goes to the sales associate and said,
I need to buy my wife a bra, a Southern
Baptist bra. She's a thirty four bait. The sales associat
looked a little bit used and said, you want to
buy what kind of bra? The man said, a Southern
Baptist bra. My wife said, you know what she meant.
(03:08):
The lady said, we don't get as many requests for
that as we used to. She goes on to say
that many of her customers as of late want either
a Catholic bra, a Salvation Army bra, or a Presbyterian bra.
Of course, he was confused, and he said, what's the difference.
She said, well, it's really quite simple. A Catholic bra
(03:30):
supports the massive, a Salvation Army bra lifts the balling,
and a Presbyterian bra will that one keeps some stalching upright.
He shook his head. He thought about that just a minute.
He said, I know I'm going to regret asking this,
but what does a Southern Baptist braw do? She said, well,
that one makes mountains out of mole hills.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I don't be bad.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Happy Thursday, have mercy tell me you're on the Michael
Berry Show.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Go ahead the issue on the phone here. I'm looking
for your email address, but good I got you anyway.
I live in Marble falls, and we have trouble with
our water system up here. I'm in the ETJA and
once the city has the water system that is led
by the city council, they don't have a boarder, director track.
(04:18):
So what that means is we don't have to say so,
we don't vote. We ain't a whole office. Yet they
can do things to the Congress. Lets them do things
to us that we can't control, like great case expenses
and an appeal. They can get theirs back whether they
win or losing. We don't even get an opportunity right
so it coercis you and straddling mediation. But the truth
of the matter is is that that doesn't the appeals
(04:41):
for us is it should not even exist because according
to the law, the jurisdiction over us should belong with
the PUC. It says so in the law. Yet the
Congress won't recognize that. We just had we spoke Monday
to the water Board, the Water Rural Land Border stummate.
We have two bills up and they gut it right
case bill. They changed it from it was supposed to
(05:03):
change to we both have equal rights. Whoever wins or
lose to get it city, whoever got to them was
right before. We didn't know about this, and we got
to the to the meeting and they changed it where
we both get equal chances to where the city can
get their back whether they win or lose, which is ridiculous,
but they wouldn't. They won't address the other one, which
(05:23):
would have clarified the law that exists now. It says
that the PUC has original inclusive jurisdiction over us, and
they won't address it. And we've been We took four
years to develop a point of a report. We gave
it to them and explains everything, and we try to
get the Senators to give us an opinion from the
(05:45):
general from the Attorney General's office, and they don't know
how to do that either. What we want to do,
we're asking you, is can you help us get to
the right people to take a look at this. So
that's some kind of resolution, because we're in a situation
where we're getting text.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
How many of y'all don't do how many there are you?
Speaker 3 (06:01):
There's we're fifty water meters and we're right to the
adjacent to the eastern edge of Marble Falls. We were
the original ETJ for forty years. They charge it's the
same as the city. And then when they passed a
house built three forty seven where he couldn't force the
annex anyone anymore, Well, then they hired a consultant come
(06:21):
in here, tell them how to develop alternative income sources.
And that's what we are. We're an unintended consequence of
House Bill three forty seven, which was a good bill.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Yeah, I got it. Let me give you a fort
to give you some sort of general advice because there
are a lot of people similarly situated across the state
with similar issues. Let me start with this. There are
two ways to handle a situation like this. Throw out
everything you already know about this. A lot of people
(06:53):
go into things like this with a very naive approach
that the system works. The system does not work. The
system is not built on justice and fairness, and everybody,
that's not how anything works. That's like saying every youth
football game starts off even and either team will have
a chance. That's not true. The team that's bigger, stronger, better,
(07:15):
coach has played longer together. Those teams are going to win.
They're going to win every time. So the only way
you win is to learn, get better coaches better, players,
practice longer, train longer. So you cannot go into a
process like this thinking that, well that's what the law says.
Laws are not self enforcing. There are two ways you
(07:36):
approach something like this. Are you Either you hire a lawyer,
or you hire an activist, or you become the activist.
So Danny g and Francesco the other day, the fellow
whose daughter was beat up by the football player, I said,
what you need as a lawyer who calls a lot
of hell for Katie id And it might not be
the first day you punch them in the face. It
(07:57):
might not be the second, it might be the third, fourth,
fifth of the but they'll get tired of being punched.
And while they're being punched, they also have lawsuit coming
out of me. He said, well, I don't want a
clout chaser, And I said, you don't want to win.
You want the cloud chaser. You want something. There are
people to take this case for free, for the clout
they'll get out of it, and you're not comfortable with that.
You're not going to win. You ask for my advice,
(08:18):
you're going to get it. And my family and friends
have come to learn you're not always going to like
it because I have a very different approach to things
than most people and think I'm probably more like Bill
Belichick and Nick Saban. Nobody really likes Bill Belichick and
Nick Saban. But you like to win, and people who
(08:39):
win at what they do are very rarely the people
who do so nicely. Donald Trump has made a lot
of enemies because of fearlessness and what might look like
recklessness and understanding that winning is everything we've had for
too long. The types of people are supposed leaders who
(09:03):
chronically lose John McCain, Mitt Romney, John Bain or Paul Ryan,
Greg Abbott, and these people, they range from doing nothing
to outright losing because they don't want to fight. Fights
are ugly. Not everybody applauds you when you fight. The
(09:26):
people around you, closest to you will say, do we
have to do this? Yes, we do. It's important. And
you understand that doing the thing that's necessary to win
and doing the thing that brings the most heat, the
thing that creates the most awkwardness, those are two very
(09:47):
different things, and you have to choose one. So people
will come with me, come to me in a whisper tone, Hey,
we have this problem over here. Can you help us
solve it? Yeah, let me rip them a new ass
on the air tomorrow. I have it solved. By noon,
they'll be calling and begging you for me to stop
talking about Oh no, we don't want to do that. Okay,
then why did you bother me? Because that's how I
(10:09):
resolve problems. Oh no, no, no. We want to have
a meeting with people, and then from the meeting, they'll
send us, their staffers will show up. Then we'll have
more meetings. We'll have more meetings, and eventually they hope
we will go away like has always been done throughout history.
How about we do that? How about you not asked
me to help? How about that? So he really as
(10:29):
an average citizen to have two approaches. One approach is
you gather, you harass online, or publicize whatever word you
want to use. You keep a story in the news.
You can hate, quant a lux all you want. He
gets a lot of things for them. There's a reason
(10:49):
people hire him because he gets them what they want.
Do you know why? Because people don't want to be
in the news. They're scared. Most people are just trying
to keep their head down and not be noticed and
not be criticized because everybody that's in the news with
a negative story, they think, well, that guy's a bad guy.
(11:10):
He's in the news, and they don't want to be
the bad guy that's in the news because they're not
the person who's ever been the bad guy in the news.
Once you've been the bad guy in the news, you
grow skin of leather. You don't care about being the
bad guy in the news, and you stop believing everything
you're told. You know what, maybe Trump didn't do those things,
Maybe that was a lie. You start to look at
things very differently. Maybe those January sixth folks were maybe
(11:35):
they were set up, maybe they were entrapped. Maybe that
didn't happen the way they said. You start looking at
the world differently. But people don't want to cross that rubicon.
They just want to lead that quiet life and not
be noticed. Because they've done something wrong in their lives.
They don't want that to be brought up. So they
want to quietly resolve things. And they have this trust
And I feel bad because very naive, but it's good natured.
(11:58):
They have this trust that the system will work work
if I show up to that dead burned meeting and
not tell them I'm so mad. I'm so mad. I'm
just gonna do it. I'm the father of this daughter
and she's been wronged and I'm so mad, and y'all
are gonna take this meeting with me. We're not taking
the meeting. You will take the meeting. Okay, we'll take
the meeting. I showed up and they weren't there. They're
gonna hear from me. How they're gonna hear from you, Well,
(12:18):
I'm gonna write a letter, and that's not gonna matter. Remember,
there's usually two points of influence. In the case of
the two kids at Katie, You've got the black community
out there waiting. If you punish that black kid, we're
gonna swoop in on you. Administrators will make your life hell.
If you don't punish him and piss off all the
(12:41):
white parents, then you'll just have them to deal with.
And let's be honest, they're not gonna bring the heat
because they're not, and we know they're not. They're gonna
maybe post a Facebook you know, a closed Facebook circle,
and people think I'm gonna ask for saying that. That's
not the intention. Look, if you're not putting a good
team on the field. You're not called in good plays,
you're not playing your heart out, You're not gonna win.
(13:02):
Doesn't mean I don't think you're a decent person. I
want to win. I learned to play that game from
the Sheila Jackson Lee's I learned to play that game
from the people who win. I see how it works.
It makes you called bad names in some circles. But
winning is everything. That's the way it works. If you
don't want to try that approach, the other approaches, you
(13:22):
hire a lawyer. Now, let me explain something about lawyers,
because this seems to be misunderstood. People don't go to
a restaurant and go, hey, y'all serve food here? H
Could I get some free Oh?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
What?
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I mean, it's not a kind deal where I want to,
you know, hire you and do a long thing and
all that. Could you just kind of give me a
free meal, you know, just enough to get me through
this hunger pang I'm going through right now. But that's
not how it works. Now, it's not a big deal,
and we're already here. Let me just let me just
run this by in you tell me what to do,
you know, just give me some food, you know, just
you got something. You got a bunch of it right here.
(13:59):
But you unders this is what we do for a living.
What do you do for a living? Would you like
to come over and do that for me for free?
It's weird, It's really weird. Hey, I notice you're a doctor.
Could you just come over to my house. I don't
want to hire you. You don't do the whole doctor
patient filling out to pay. Could you just come over
(14:20):
to my house this evening and treat me just for
this issue I have right here? Just see if I
got a problem and all that, and then I mean,
you know, eventually, if it turns in, I might end
up hiring you down the road. So I find it fascinating.
People will spend money on most everything, vacations, clothes, stupid stuff,
dumb stuff, eating out, whatever. They'll spend money on anything
and everything. Don't expect them to pay a penny for
(14:44):
legal fees. But don't you understand the whole reason to
go to law school and train and do all go
take the bar, do all those things is so that
you could sell your advice. Yeah, I just want this
one free. Could you just get us an attorney? Do
it free? Do you ask people to come over and
mow your Hey, I notice you're cutting that the yard
on that side of me and that side of me.
(15:05):
You're already here, you are. Could you just real quick
cut this grass for me?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Real quick?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Why do people think it's appropriate to pay for everything
else in society? But there should just be some lawyer,
you know. I don't want to hire you. Just just
answer all my questions. Do you understand what you're doing there?
You wouldn't go into the doctor and go, hey, I
don't want to pay for this visit and all that.
I just want to come in here. You just tell
me if I'm a die or not. If I'm gonna die,
(15:33):
then maybe I'll hire you to solve the bigger problem.
Last two segments positive ending. Ramon's dog passed today. Harrison,
tell me the breed and name and how many years
of your dog you lost? Quickly? Be ready to go
right to it. Seven one three, nine nine, nine, one thousand, Gunner.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Boy, I like La Goodberry.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Sure, Danny Mayo wrote that song.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
If you get it there, it's a.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Great, great song. Only a dog owner could write that song.
Danny Mayo didn't do anything else in his career. Oh,
except write Keeper of the Stars for Tracy Bird, which
was Song of the Year in nineteen ninety five at
the Country Music Association, and some songs for pirates, the
(16:24):
Mississippi Confederate Railroad and Alabama. And just so you know,
if you write a song that Alabama or George Strait record,
that's going to be a million dollar royalty at a minimum,
at a minimum. Roger Creiger told me years ago Strait's
people had reached out to him for a song he
had written, and he said, of course, of course, I
(16:48):
want you to write it. And he was told off
the record, it's typically a million dollars for the songwriter.
If King George records your song in royalties, it may
take a couple years, but it's a million our paycheck minimum.
Now that you write the chair you know, uh, what's
our buddy's name with the glasses and long hair. He
(17:11):
just did. He and Tracy did a show for us
in the studio that wrote all those songs. Double Deed
uh a Dylan, Dean Dylan, good Lord Dean Dylan made
so much money. There was a woman that posted this
week her she was at the UH. She's working the
drive through line at the dairy queen and George Straight
pulls up. She takes she takes a selfie over her
(17:34):
shoulder through the window and he's sitting there like with
a chester cat grin in his truck. He's just ordered
and they told what he ordered. I'll find I'll find it.
Rachel sent it to me. It's it's uh. She gives
his whole order and it's pretty cool. I mean, he's
a good sport about it. You gotta be right, but
you gotta figure everywhere he goes. Sometimes he just wants
to be left alone. And he's so obviously distinctively, charmingly
(17:55):
perfectly George Straight. And you know, people, can we just
have a photo? Sure I hadn't done that sax one
hundred and thirty two times today, Michael, you're complaining, But
he signed up for that. That's the one that gets
you every time. Yeah, he's signed up for that. Ramon
told a story about his dog Harrison passing, and I
(18:18):
wanted you to give an opportunity to give the name
breed and how many years you had your dog will
make it a lightning round. So but we can make
it a lightning round with a nice dog theme. You've
got a nice sentimental. You know, am I getting a massage?
Or has my dog died? Stop music? You know, water trickling?
You know what I mean? Like you're not really sure?
(18:39):
If you just tuned in, you figured out Ramon, David,
you're up. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
We lost our seven year old German shepherd last year
in July. She went by Davy Duke. She had a
inoperable tumor growing off of her heart and it eventually
closed off her a order she went on across the bridge.
Are like crazy, Of.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Course you do, Of course you do, Jennifer, go ahead, sweetheart.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Yes, sir, We lost our dog blue Bell last year.
She was a blue pit bull sixteen and a half
and she was a rescue and then she was actually
pregnant when we got her and we didn't know. And
we still have the runt of the litter, who is
now fifteen.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
That's cool. What is a blue pit bull?
Speaker 6 (19:22):
Yes, well that's what people call it. I guess she's
kind of more like a.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Gray silver color, like a smurf.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
Uh yeah, just like that.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Paul, You're all on Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
Lost my black lab Sig two years ago.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
She was eight.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
The handsomest to be dumb as the box rocks. You know,
things fall out in the unfright oppos head.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Is there a sweeter dog than a lab Maybe a
cocker Spaniel. We grew up with cocker span as. We
had one named Happy, she was black, an African American,
and a blond cocker named Honey. And then my wife
and I had a cocker Spaniel who we named she
(20:11):
named Ronnie. Ronnie is Queen, which where you get Maharaja
as the big king and Maharani is a big is
a big queen. I'm always interested when people say they
adopted a dog. People love to tay they adopted a dog. Oh,
y'all didn't have her naturally. What does that mean we
adopted a dog? Does that mean you didn't pay for it? Okay,
(20:34):
you don't get credit for that adoption. It's not like
fostering or anything. Fritz, you're on a Michael Berry show?
Are you German? Dad was mama's Italian? Oh? The Italian
hold on. The Italian Prime Minister is visiting with President
Trump today at noon. And this is a huge deal
because this is a split with the European Union, and
(20:55):
what Trump is trying to do is wedge US between
those European Union countries and cut individual deals with each
country so that as a market they don't have the
power we do. And this is a big, big step
that this gloriously beautiful and smart woman, the Prime Minister
of Italy, is willing to come and cut an individual
(21:17):
deal in violation of EU protocols. This could open the floodgates.
This could be the Bellweather deal. All right, Fritz, you
go ahead with your dog brother.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Third Ranger, Golden Retriever, thirteen years, three months, two.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Weeks ago today, I had to put it down.
Speaker 5 (21:36):
The backy already was.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Seasoned violently today it was rough no two weeks ago today.
Oh dude, if you call in on the day you've
had to put your dog down and you keep it together,
I mean I already know, I already know I would
like you because you named your dog Ranger, and your
name is Fritz. But if you were man enough to
(21:59):
do that, said trifecta right there, that is a tri factor.
If he could do all three of those, solid call Donnie,
you think you can get all three in real quick,
Donnie Goiser.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
He was twelve years old and he was a golden
retriever never dug a day in his life.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Never his name was Kaiser loved Lebron.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
That's awesome.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Closing time when you're listening to the Michael Berry.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
Shows, Nice money, This is nast day.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
The world is full of evil, disease, betrayal. There are
a few things in life that are beautiful to remind
us of the glory of God. That is old people,
young people, and dogs. Ramone told the story this morning,
(23:15):
which was how we started the show, and we'll end
the show with your calls about your love lost of
a dog, reed and how old it was. But this
was the story that got us started.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
Fifteen years ago. The quiet One picked us while the
others in the litter were all yap yap, yap, and
the quiet one just sat there still watching. He wasn't
any more adorable than the rest, but he had something else,
something steady, so we picked him, the quiet One. For
(23:49):
fifteen years, longer than our boys have even been a love,
that little kavapoo, the size of a shoe box, brought
us joy, frustration, belly laughs, and all the messy emotions
you know I ever expect to get from a dog
until it's too late to imagine life without him. Our
boys came along in twenty fifteen and twenty eighteen, and
the quiet one was there standing sentry like an old
(24:12):
soul who knew his job before anyone told him. The
boys took to him right away. So many memories, too
many to remember. And that's the deal you make with
your best friend. He barely ever barked. We could count,
literally on two hands, the number of times we heard
his voice. But always he watched, he cuddled, or he
(24:34):
just sat alone, content in the silence. Today we say
goodbye to the quiet little Kabapoo. So tonight, drink the
good whiskey, fight the good cigar. Take ten seconds, and
in your softness whisper say that's a good boy, Harrison, good.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Boy, Jimmy name breed. Number of years you're up. Hopefully
we'll get some nice music underneath this.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
So it's nineteen seventy six. I'm twelve years old. We
have a black lab named Noel. My parents had just
gotten divorced and it was just me and my dad,
and Noel was my best friend, probably three years old.
When he follows me up from the neighborhood. I was
shooting basketball and he got it and we tried to
(25:36):
put him in a cast, but that didn't go so
well and we had to put him down a week later.
And never forget Noel.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
That was fifty years ago and you still remember it,
and it's still chokes you up. Think about the bond,
think about the bond we have with dogs. We think
about that fifty years ago, you still get choked up. Incredible.
You know the officer that was killed at Bresoria County,
(26:09):
Shaff's deputy that was killed recently and the dog was wounded,
and it kind of pissed me off. Well maybe because
my brother was a sheriffs deputy. I don't know why
that people seem to care about the dog that had
been wounded more than the deputy with a family that
had been killed. And I had a number of people
say to me, well, the deputy signed up for the danger,
(26:30):
the dog doesn't all these sorts of things. And on
occasion I get angry how people love their dogs more
than human beings, and I think that's probably one of
the problems with our society. You know, you can beat
the snot out of somebody and beat them to death
in the street and people will walk along. But you
beat a dog and they'll film you and chase you
and make sure you're prosecuted. And there's something wrong with
(26:51):
society about that. Not because we need to love our
dogs less, but we need to love each other more.
If people had the love for each other or that
they do for their dogs, you can love your dogs
just as much you already do, love them more, but
have that same respect for human life. Melanie, you're up,
Go ahead, all right, Michael.
Speaker 10 (27:13):
We had a ten year old Beagel Waitwiler mixed and
she was such a good dog that awfully, she would
walk right beside me, would never take off, unlesf I
gave constructions to take off. She knew that we were expecting.
(27:34):
Before we knew we were expecting she would.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I want to get everybody in here. I want to
I appreciate it. I want to get everybody in here.
Name breed, number of years. Please do not call our
show on a blue tooth. We cannot hear you. It
makes for bad audio. Please don't do that. Not that
she did. Dennis, you're up. Name breed, number of years?
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Yeah, thanks, Michael is. Actually two dogs died on the
same day last year. One was a chocolate lab mix
named Jack.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Thirteen.
Speaker 11 (28:06):
The other one was an Alaskan husky named Rico that
was also thirteen. Rico is a beautiful dog, not very smart.
Jack was an ugly duckling, extremely smart. He had all
kinds of cancer though on his leg and everything. And
so I was on the vet here in Brenham with
a vet talking about putting him down. Decided I was
going to put him down that day heard a terrible
(28:29):
whale from the back porch and the Alaskan husky it
had some kind of aneurysm.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Or oh, what a horrible day, Amber Europe, sweetheart, Go ahead, yes, sir.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
This is fresh for us when we lost our dog
about two and a half weeks ago.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Marco, a teacup Chihuala fourteen and a half years old.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
My side kick.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
We've had two teacup Chihuaalas Boucci and Nick Knack over
the course of thirty years, one for seventeen, one for thirteen,
and I maintained they're the best alarm dogs ever because
they can't actually hurt anybody. Those dogs could tell the
difference between somebody walking up the driveway in a limb
falling or tree leaves. They if those dogs if either
(29:15):
one of those teacup Chua was barked. You knew there
was something going might not be a threat, but it
is a human being and they are approaching your house.
Love those dogs. People say that little is it good?
You just say whatever you want. They're great dogs. Teacup
Jualas are fantastic. Joe, you're up.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
This is me Hi Michael. I just had told Verman
about my dog. Our dog is still alive, but my
wife called me this morning after his story. Cryme just distrut,
just thinking about if we lost him. He replaced three
dogs that we lost in the space of a year
(29:55):
and are beautiful.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Joe, I'm gonna try to get everybody on. I appreciate it.
That makes you love him more knowing you won't have
him forever. Let's go to Mary Go.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Hi Michael. I had a fifteen year old female Yorky
by the name of Olivia.
Speaker 9 (30:10):
I love it, love life.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Love it. John Go, I got to get everybody on,
John go.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
His name was Hercules. I got him from a friend
of mine. Baby six years old.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
That's what that's what blue sounds like. Top caller, you're up,
go ahead, who's over at the top caller? I don't
know who that person is. Caller, you're up two eight ones.
There you go, John's already been on. Last caller is
a two oh six area code. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
It's Kat Phillips from Brookside Village.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
A dog's name was Sam Houston. He was an Amstaf
Nicks and he was nine years old.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
You follow the lost perfectly. Thank you, Gay Daves, says
tell Ramona. I'm very sorry to hear about his dog.
I know how hard that is. I lost my redbone
coonhound a few years back. Rescued him from a flood,
drove out in my jeep from the floodwaters and threw
him in the back. He died three years ago. We've
had two year old Frenchie and a two year old
chocolate Lab now
It's that time time time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show is on the air. Have mercy, I'm
(00:36):
told by Tom Stark of the National Appraisal Partners with
offices in Texas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, Wisconsin. He is a
partner there, Thomas A. Stark Czar. A one to four
unit mortgage is classified as a residential loan, which requires
a far lower down payment and has a lower interest rate,
(00:56):
among other things, while a five unit more btgage is
classified as a commercial loan, which requires a much larger
down payment and has a higher interest rate. Well that
makes all sense in the world, now, doesn't it. So
she was classifying what should be a commercial loan with
a higher down payment and a higher interest rate as
(01:18):
a residential loan, so lying and claiming there are only
four units when in fact there are five. Now, when
the appraiser came out and would have said Ms James,
there are five units, not four, it says four here,
she would have said, I'm the Attorney General. I would
to heard I am redeemed and freed abanities US and
(01:39):
you will say there are four units, or I'll have
your job, because that's how it works. See rules for THEE,
but not for me. And those rules for THEE. Oh,
they're going to be stiff because we like to have
rules because then we can prosecute you and cause you
a lot of problems because we're the type of good
for nothings that get into the government because we couldn't
make it in a private sector. Jackson Lee went to
(02:01):
work at Fulbright when she ran for judge three times
and lost in the eighties. And I've talked to people
who worked with her there and Oh, they don't want
their name used. Please keep me out of it because
nobody wants to be mentioned. What if in never mind,
never mind, just never mind. Since we had to do
(02:24):
some monkey pots at STD and STI humor, we're going
to clean up the show for the last hour and
we will open the airwaves to a little more wholesome humor,
Little Southern Baptist humor. This is by Kerrie Clark. It's
called the Southern Baptist Bra.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
This man walks into a Dillergs department store, goes right
to the Lingeride department, goes to the sales associate and said,
I need to buy my wife a bra, a Southern
Baptist bra. She's a thirty four bait. The sales associat
looked a little bit used and said, you want to
buy what kind of bra? The man said, a Southern
Baptist bra. My wife said, you know what she meant.
(03:08):
The lady said, we don't get as many requests for
that as we used to. She goes on to say
that many of her customers as of late want either
a Catholic bra, a Salvation Army bra, or a Presbyterian bra.
Of course, he was confused, and he said, what's the difference.
She said, well, it's really quite simple. A Catholic bra
(03:30):
supports the massive, a Salvation Army bra lifts the balling,
and a Presbyterian bra will that one keeps some stalching upright.
He shook his head. He thought about that just a minute.
He said, I know I'm going to regret asking this,
but what does a Southern Baptist braw do? She said, well,
that one makes mountains out of mole hills.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I don't be bad.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Happy Thursday, have mercy tell me you're on the Michael
Berry Show.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Go ahead the issue on the phone here. I'm looking
for your email address, but good I got you anyway.
I live in Marble falls, and we have trouble with
our water system up here. I'm in the ETJA and
once the city has the water system that is led
by the city council, they don't have a boarder, director track.
(04:18):
So what that means is we don't have to say so,
we don't vote. We ain't a whole office. Yet they
can do things to the Congress. Lets them do things
to us that we can't control, like great case expenses
and an appeal. They can get theirs back whether they
win or losing. We don't even get an opportunity right
so it coercis you and straddling mediation. But the truth
of the matter is is that that doesn't the appeals
(04:41):
for us is it should not even exist because according
to the law, the jurisdiction over us should belong with
the PUC. It says so in the law. Yet the
Congress won't recognize that. We just had we spoke Monday
to the water Board, the Water Rural Land Border stummate.
We have two bills up and they gut it right
case bill. They changed it from it was supposed to
(05:03):
change to we both have equal rights. Whoever wins or
lose to get it city, whoever got to them was
right before. We didn't know about this, and we got
to the to the meeting and they changed it where
we both get equal chances to where the city can
get their back whether they win or lose, which is ridiculous,
but they wouldn't. They won't address the other one, which
(05:23):
would have clarified the law that exists now. It says
that the PUC has original inclusive jurisdiction over us, and
they won't address it. And we've been We took four
years to develop a point of a report. We gave
it to them and explains everything, and we try to
get the Senators to give us an opinion from the
(05:45):
general from the Attorney General's office, and they don't know
how to do that either. What we want to do,
we're asking you, is can you help us get to
the right people to take a look at this. So
that's some kind of resolution, because we're in a situation
where we're getting text.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
How many of y'all don't do how many there are you?
Speaker 3 (06:01):
There's we're fifty water meters and we're right to the
adjacent to the eastern edge of Marble Falls. We were
the original ETJ for forty years. They charge it's the
same as the city. And then when they passed a
house built three forty seven where he couldn't force the
annex anyone anymore, Well, then they hired a consultant come
(06:21):
in here, tell them how to develop alternative income sources.
And that's what we are. We're an unintended consequence of
House Bill three forty seven, which was a good bill.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Yeah, I got it. Let me give you a fort
to give you some sort of general advice because there
are a lot of people similarly situated across the state
with similar issues. Let me start with this. There are
two ways to handle a situation like this. Throw out
everything you already know about this. A lot of people
(06:53):
go into things like this with a very naive approach
that the system works. The system does not work. The
system is not built on justice and fairness, and everybody,
that's not how anything works. That's like saying every youth
football game starts off even and either team will have
a chance. That's not true. The team that's bigger, stronger, better,
(07:15):
coach has played longer together. Those teams are going to win.
They're going to win every time. So the only way
you win is to learn, get better coaches better, players,
practice longer, train longer. So you cannot go into a
process like this thinking that, well that's what the law says.
Laws are not self enforcing. There are two ways you
(07:36):
approach something like this. Are you Either you hire a lawyer,
or you hire an activist, or you become the activist.
So Danny g and Francesco the other day, the fellow
whose daughter was beat up by the football player, I said,
what you need as a lawyer who calls a lot
of hell for Katie id And it might not be
the first day you punch them in the face. It
(07:57):
might not be the second, it might be the third, fourth,
fifth of the but they'll get tired of being punched.
And while they're being punched, they also have lawsuit coming
out of me. He said, well, I don't want a
clout chaser, And I said, you don't want to win.
You want the cloud chaser. You want something. There are
people to take this case for free, for the clout
they'll get out of it, and you're not comfortable with that.
You're not going to win. You ask for my advice,
(08:18):
you're going to get it. And my family and friends
have come to learn you're not always going to like
it because I have a very different approach to things
than most people and think I'm probably more like Bill
Belichick and Nick Saban. Nobody really likes Bill Belichick and
Nick Saban. But you like to win, and people who
(08:39):
win at what they do are very rarely the people
who do so nicely. Donald Trump has made a lot
of enemies because of fearlessness and what might look like
recklessness and understanding that winning is everything we've had for
too long. The types of people are supposed leaders who
(09:03):
chronically lose John McCain, Mitt Romney, John Bain or Paul Ryan,
Greg Abbott, and these people, they range from doing nothing
to outright losing because they don't want to fight. Fights
are ugly. Not everybody applauds you when you fight. The
(09:26):
people around you, closest to you will say, do we
have to do this? Yes, we do. It's important. And
you understand that doing the thing that's necessary to win
and doing the thing that brings the most heat, the
thing that creates the most awkwardness, those are two very
(09:47):
different things, and you have to choose one. So people
will come with me, come to me in a whisper tone, Hey,
we have this problem over here. Can you help us
solve it? Yeah, let me rip them a new ass
on the air tomorrow. I have it solved. By noon,
they'll be calling and begging you for me to stop
talking about Oh no, we don't want to do that. Okay,
then why did you bother me? Because that's how I
(10:09):
resolve problems. Oh no, no, no. We want to have
a meeting with people, and then from the meeting, they'll
send us, their staffers will show up. Then we'll have
more meetings. We'll have more meetings, and eventually they hope
we will go away like has always been done throughout history.
How about we do that? How about you not asked
me to help? How about that? So he really as
(10:29):
an average citizen to have two approaches. One approach is
you gather, you harass online, or publicize whatever word you
want to use. You keep a story in the news.
You can hate, quant a lux all you want. He
gets a lot of things for them. There's a reason
(10:49):
people hire him because he gets them what they want.
Do you know why? Because people don't want to be
in the news. They're scared. Most people are just trying
to keep their head down and not be noticed and
not be criticized because everybody that's in the news with
a negative story, they think, well, that guy's a bad guy.
(11:10):
He's in the news, and they don't want to be
the bad guy that's in the news because they're not
the person who's ever been the bad guy in the news.
Once you've been the bad guy in the news, you
grow skin of leather. You don't care about being the
bad guy in the news, and you stop believing everything
you're told. You know what, maybe Trump didn't do those things,
Maybe that was a lie. You start to look at
things very differently. Maybe those January sixth folks were maybe
(11:35):
they were set up, maybe they were entrapped. Maybe that
didn't happen the way they said. You start looking at
the world differently. But people don't want to cross that rubicon.
They just want to lead that quiet life and not
be noticed. Because they've done something wrong in their lives.
They don't want that to be brought up. So they
want to quietly resolve things. And they have this trust
And I feel bad because very naive, but it's good natured.
(11:58):
They have this trust that the system will work work
if I show up to that dead burned meeting and
not tell them I'm so mad. I'm so mad. I'm
just gonna do it. I'm the father of this daughter
and she's been wronged and I'm so mad, and y'all
are gonna take this meeting with me. We're not taking
the meeting. You will take the meeting. Okay, we'll take
the meeting. I showed up and they weren't there. They're
gonna hear from me. How they're gonna hear from you, Well,
(12:18):
I'm gonna write a letter, and that's not gonna matter. Remember,
there's usually two points of influence. In the case of
the two kids at Katie, You've got the black community
out there waiting. If you punish that black kid, we're
gonna swoop in on you. Administrators will make your life hell.
If you don't punish him and piss off all the
(12:41):
white parents, then you'll just have them to deal with.
And let's be honest, they're not gonna bring the heat
because they're not, and we know they're not. They're gonna
maybe post a Facebook you know, a closed Facebook circle,
and people think I'm gonna ask for saying that. That's
not the intention. Look, if you're not putting a good
team on the field. You're not called in good plays,
you're not playing your heart out, You're not gonna win.
(13:02):
Doesn't mean I don't think you're a decent person. I
want to win. I learned to play that game from
the Sheila Jackson Lee's I learned to play that game
from the people who win. I see how it works.
It makes you called bad names in some circles. But
winning is everything. That's the way it works. If you
don't want to try that approach, the other approaches, you
(13:22):
hire a lawyer. Now, let me explain something about lawyers,
because this seems to be misunderstood. People don't go to
a restaurant and go, hey, y'all serve food here? H
Could I get some free Oh?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
What?
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I mean, it's not a kind deal where I want to,
you know, hire you and do a long thing and
all that. Could you just kind of give me a
free meal, you know, just enough to get me through
this hunger pang I'm going through right now. But that's
not how it works. Now, it's not a big deal,
and we're already here. Let me just let me just
run this by in you tell me what to do,
you know, just give me some food, you know, just
you got something. You got a bunch of it right here.
(13:59):
But you unders this is what we do for a living.
What do you do for a living? Would you like
to come over and do that for me for free?
It's weird, It's really weird. Hey, I notice you're a doctor.
Could you just come over to my house. I don't
want to hire you. You don't do the whole doctor
patient filling out to pay. Could you just come over
(14:20):
to my house this evening and treat me just for
this issue I have right here? Just see if I
got a problem and all that, and then I mean,
you know, eventually, if it turns in, I might end
up hiring you down the road. So I find it fascinating.
People will spend money on most everything, vacations, clothes, stupid stuff,
dumb stuff, eating out, whatever. They'll spend money on anything
and everything. Don't expect them to pay a penny for
(14:44):
legal fees. But don't you understand the whole reason to
go to law school and train and do all go
take the bar, do all those things is so that
you could sell your advice. Yeah, I just want this
one free. Could you just get us an attorney? Do
it free? Do you ask people to come over and
mow your Hey, I notice you're cutting that the yard
on that side of me and that side of me.
(15:05):
You're already here, you are. Could you just real quick
cut this grass for me?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Real quick?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Why do people think it's appropriate to pay for everything
else in society? But there should just be some lawyer,
you know. I don't want to hire you. Just just
answer all my questions. Do you understand what you're doing there?
You wouldn't go into the doctor and go, hey, I
don't want to pay for this visit and all that.
I just want to come in here. You just tell
me if I'm a die or not. If I'm gonna die,
(15:33):
then maybe I'll hire you to solve the bigger problem.
Last two segments positive ending. Ramon's dog passed today. Harrison,
tell me the breed and name and how many years
of your dog you lost? Quickly? Be ready to go
right to it. Seven one three, nine nine, nine, one thousand, Gunner.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Boy, I like La Goodberry.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Sure, Danny Mayo wrote that song.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
If you get it there, it's a.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Great, great song. Only a dog owner could write that song.
Danny Mayo didn't do anything else in his career. Oh,
except write Keeper of the Stars for Tracy Bird, which
was Song of the Year in nineteen ninety five at
the Country Music Association, and some songs for pirates, the
(16:24):
Mississippi Confederate Railroad and Alabama. And just so you know,
if you write a song that Alabama or George Strait record,
that's going to be a million dollar royalty at a minimum,
at a minimum. Roger Creiger told me years ago Strait's
people had reached out to him for a song he
had written, and he said, of course, of course, I
(16:48):
want you to write it. And he was told off
the record, it's typically a million dollars for the songwriter.
If King George records your song in royalties, it may
take a couple years, but it's a million our paycheck minimum.
Now that you write the chair you know, uh, what's
our buddy's name with the glasses and long hair. He
(17:11):
just did. He and Tracy did a show for us
in the studio that wrote all those songs. Double Deed
uh a Dylan, Dean Dylan, good Lord Dean Dylan made
so much money. There was a woman that posted this
week her she was at the UH. She's working the
drive through line at the dairy queen and George Straight
pulls up. She takes she takes a selfie over her
(17:34):
shoulder through the window and he's sitting there like with
a chester cat grin in his truck. He's just ordered
and they told what he ordered. I'll find I'll find it.
Rachel sent it to me. It's it's uh. She gives
his whole order and it's pretty cool. I mean, he's
a good sport about it. You gotta be right, but
you gotta figure everywhere he goes. Sometimes he just wants
to be left alone. And he's so obviously distinctively, charmingly
(17:55):
perfectly George Straight. And you know, people, can we just
have a photo? Sure I hadn't done that sax one
hundred and thirty two times today, Michael, you're complaining, But
he signed up for that. That's the one that gets
you every time. Yeah, he's signed up for that. Ramon
told a story about his dog Harrison passing, and I
(18:18):
wanted you to give an opportunity to give the name
breed and how many years you had your dog will
make it a lightning round. So but we can make
it a lightning round with a nice dog theme. You've
got a nice sentimental. You know, am I getting a massage?
Or has my dog died? Stop music? You know, water trickling?
You know what I mean? Like you're not really sure?
(18:39):
If you just tuned in, you figured out Ramon, David,
you're up. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
We lost our seven year old German shepherd last year
in July. She went by Davy Duke. She had a
inoperable tumor growing off of her heart and it eventually
closed off her a order she went on across the bridge.
Are like crazy, Of.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Course you do, Of course you do, Jennifer, go ahead, sweetheart.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
Yes, sir, We lost our dog blue Bell last year.
She was a blue pit bull sixteen and a half
and she was a rescue and then she was actually
pregnant when we got her and we didn't know. And
we still have the runt of the litter, who is
now fifteen.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
That's cool. What is a blue pit bull?
Speaker 6 (19:22):
Yes, well that's what people call it. I guess she's
kind of more like a.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Gray silver color, like a smurf.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
Uh yeah, just like that.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Paul, You're all on Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
Lost my black lab Sig two years ago.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
She was eight.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
The handsomest to be dumb as the box rocks. You know,
things fall out in the unfright oppos head.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Is there a sweeter dog than a lab Maybe a
cocker Spaniel. We grew up with cocker span as. We
had one named Happy, she was black, an African American,
and a blond cocker named Honey. And then my wife
and I had a cocker Spaniel who we named she
(20:11):
named Ronnie. Ronnie is Queen, which where you get Maharaja
as the big king and Maharani is a big is
a big queen. I'm always interested when people say they
adopted a dog. People love to tay they adopted a dog. Oh,
y'all didn't have her naturally. What does that mean we
adopted a dog? Does that mean you didn't pay for it? Okay,
(20:34):
you don't get credit for that adoption. It's not like
fostering or anything. Fritz, you're on a Michael Berry show?
Are you German? Dad was mama's Italian? Oh? The Italian
hold on. The Italian Prime Minister is visiting with President
Trump today at noon. And this is a huge deal
because this is a split with the European Union, and
(20:55):
what Trump is trying to do is wedge US between
those European Union countries and cut individual deals with each
country so that as a market they don't have the
power we do. And this is a big, big step
that this gloriously beautiful and smart woman, the Prime Minister
of Italy, is willing to come and cut an individual
(21:17):
deal in violation of EU protocols. This could open the floodgates.
This could be the Bellweather deal. All right, Fritz, you
go ahead with your dog brother.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Third Ranger, Golden Retriever, thirteen years, three months, two.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Weeks ago today, I had to put it down.
Speaker 5 (21:36):
The backy already was.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Seasoned violently today it was rough no two weeks ago today.
Oh dude, if you call in on the day you've
had to put your dog down and you keep it together,
I mean I already know, I already know I would
like you because you named your dog Ranger, and your
name is Fritz. But if you were man enough to
(21:59):
do that, said trifecta right there, that is a tri factor.
If he could do all three of those, solid call Donnie,
you think you can get all three in real quick,
Donnie Goiser.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
He was twelve years old and he was a golden
retriever never dug a day in his life.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Never his name was Kaiser loved Lebron.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
That's awesome.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Closing time when you're listening to the Michael Berry.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
Shows, Nice money, This is nast day.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
The world is full of evil, disease, betrayal. There are
a few things in life that are beautiful to remind
us of the glory of God. That is old people,
young people, and dogs. Ramone told the story this morning,
(23:15):
which was how we started the show, and we'll end
the show with your calls about your love lost of
a dog, reed and how old it was. But this
was the story that got us started.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
Fifteen years ago. The quiet One picked us while the
others in the litter were all yap yap, yap, and
the quiet one just sat there still watching. He wasn't
any more adorable than the rest, but he had something else,
something steady, so we picked him, the quiet One. For
(23:49):
fifteen years, longer than our boys have even been a love,
that little kavapoo, the size of a shoe box, brought
us joy, frustration, belly laughs, and all the messy emotions
you know I ever expect to get from a dog
until it's too late to imagine life without him. Our
boys came along in twenty fifteen and twenty eighteen, and
the quiet one was there standing sentry like an old
(24:12):
soul who knew his job before anyone told him. The
boys took to him right away. So many memories, too
many to remember. And that's the deal you make with
your best friend. He barely ever barked. We could count,
literally on two hands, the number of times we heard
his voice. But always he watched, he cuddled, or he
(24:34):
just sat alone, content in the silence. Today we say
goodbye to the quiet little Kabapoo. So tonight, drink the
good whiskey, fight the good cigar. Take ten seconds, and
in your softness whisper say that's a good boy, Harrison, good.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Boy, Jimmy name breed. Number of years you're up. Hopefully
we'll get some nice music underneath this.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
So it's nineteen seventy six. I'm twelve years old. We
have a black lab named Noel. My parents had just
gotten divorced and it was just me and my dad,
and Noel was my best friend, probably three years old.
When he follows me up from the neighborhood. I was
shooting basketball and he got it and we tried to
(25:36):
put him in a cast, but that didn't go so
well and we had to put him down a week later.
And never forget Noel.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
That was fifty years ago and you still remember it,
and it's still chokes you up. Think about the bond,
think about the bond we have with dogs. We think
about that fifty years ago, you still get choked up. Incredible.
You know the officer that was killed at Bresoria County,
(26:09):
Shaff's deputy that was killed recently and the dog was wounded,
and it kind of pissed me off. Well maybe because
my brother was a sheriffs deputy. I don't know why
that people seem to care about the dog that had
been wounded more than the deputy with a family that
had been killed. And I had a number of people
say to me, well, the deputy signed up for the danger,
(26:30):
the dog doesn't all these sorts of things. And on
occasion I get angry how people love their dogs more
than human beings, and I think that's probably one of
the problems with our society. You know, you can beat
the snot out of somebody and beat them to death
in the street and people will walk along. But you
beat a dog and they'll film you and chase you
and make sure you're prosecuted. And there's something wrong with
(26:51):
society about that. Not because we need to love our
dogs less, but we need to love each other more.
If people had the love for each other or that
they do for their dogs, you can love your dogs
just as much you already do, love them more, but
have that same respect for human life. Melanie, you're up,
Go ahead, all right, Michael.
Speaker 10 (27:13):
We had a ten year old Beagel Waitwiler mixed and
she was such a good dog that awfully, she would
walk right beside me, would never take off, unlesf I
gave constructions to take off. She knew that we were expecting.
(27:34):
Before we knew we were expecting she would.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I want to get everybody in here. I want to
I appreciate it. I want to get everybody in here.
Name breed, number of years. Please do not call our
show on a blue tooth. We cannot hear you. It
makes for bad audio. Please don't do that. Not that
she did. Dennis, you're up. Name breed, number of years?
Speaker 11 (27:58):
Yeah, thanks, Michael is. Actually two dogs died on the
same day last year. One was a chocolate lab mix
named Jack.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Thirteen.
Speaker 11 (28:06):
The other one was an Alaskan husky named Rico that
was also thirteen. Rico is a beautiful dog, not very smart.
Jack was an ugly duckling, extremely smart. He had all
kinds of cancer though on his leg and everything. And
so I was on the vet here in Brenham with
a vet talking about putting him down. Decided I was
going to put him down that day heard a terrible
(28:29):
whale from the back porch and the Alaskan husky it
had some kind of aneurysm.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Or oh, what a horrible day, Amber Europe, sweetheart, Go ahead, yes, sir.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
This is fresh for us when we lost our dog
about two and a half weeks ago.
Speaker 5 (28:45):
Marco, a teacup Chihuala fourteen and a half years old.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
My side kick.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
We've had two teacup Chihuaalas Boucci and Nick Knack over
the course of thirty years, one for seventeen, one for thirteen,
and I maintained they're the best alarm dogs ever because
they can't actually hurt anybody. Those dogs could tell the
difference between somebody walking up the driveway in a limb
falling or tree leaves. They if those dogs if either
(29:15):
one of those teacup Chua was barked. You knew there
was something going might not be a threat, but it
is a human being and they are approaching your house.
Love those dogs. People say that little is it good?
You just say whatever you want. They're great dogs. Teacup
Jualas are fantastic. Joe, you're up.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
This is me Hi Michael. I just had told Verman
about my dog. Our dog is still alive, but my
wife called me this morning after his story. Cryme just distrut,
just thinking about if we lost him. He replaced three
dogs that we lost in the space of a year
(29:55):
and are beautiful.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Joe, I'm gonna try to get everybody on. I appreciate it.
That makes you love him more knowing you won't have
him forever. Let's go to Mary Go.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Hi Michael. I had a fifteen year old female Yorky
by the name of Olivia.
Speaker 9 (30:10):
I love it, love life.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Love it. John Go, I got to get everybody on,
John go.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
His name was Hercules. I got him from a friend
of mine. Baby six years old.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
That's what that's what blue sounds like. Top caller, you're up,
go ahead, who's over at the top caller? I don't
know who that person is. Caller, you're up two eight ones.
There you go, John's already been on. Last caller is
a two oh six area code. Go ahead.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
It's Kat Phillips from Brookside Village.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
A dog's name was Sam Houston. He was an Amstaf
Nicks and he was nine years old.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
You follow the lost perfectly. Thank you, Gay Daves, says
tell Ramona. I'm very sorry to hear about his dog.
I know how hard that is. I lost my redbone
coonhound a few years back. Rescued him from a flood,
drove out in my jeep from the floodwaters and threw
him in the back. He died three years ago. We've
had two year old Frenchie and a two year old
chocolate Lab now
