Now little baby Dog, Grandma Gump in the studio with

Speaker 1 (14:40):
Hey y'all, how you doing all right?
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Good to say it, old grandma, call a Grandma gump,
because well, I guess he just started helping out Operation
Christmas Child Samaritan's Purse. And of course you're talking about Randy.
This is the week, yes, so get the shoe boxes in.
Speaker 13 (14:55):
Collection begins today. Collection Week is today the eighteenth or
the twenty fifth. Locations across the country are opening their
doors today to collect Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts. Samaritans
person will do the rest. We'll send the shoeboxes to
children in need it.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Wow, Grandma, that's pretty sweet, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
Oh?
Speaker 14 (15:12):
Yeah, when I get excited, I tell everybody this first day,
don't know, nobody bother me because I'm gonna get really
emotional thinking about all these kids getting these boxes.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
I love I love it so hopefully.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, you went out this weekend, you know where He
wanted you to go ahead and get that ready, So
you start today. But if not you hadn't yet, just
take some time and fill the shoebox. Get get in
the closet, goot old shoebox. If you got kids, you
take them and let them fill the boxes themselves. And
know that they're gonna be touching a kid on the
other part of the world.
Speaker 14 (15:39):
This is not gonna have a Chris and all these kids,
these are the kids who need to know that somebody
loves them, somebody cares about what's happening to them. These
kids live in the darkest, most frightening places of the world.
And it's so simple for us to do, you know, just.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Really, I mean, you know, there's so much stuff that
we have. You probably don't have to go to the store,
you know, if you just come and go through Johnny's.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Office or six.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah, we're looking at.
Speaker 13 (16:03):
We're looking for real simple items. We're looking for small
balls or baby dolls for a girl. We're looking for
jump ropes and hard candy, school supplies, small things that
will fit in all those things right there in your office.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Flashlights are cool. If you put an assortment of battery
a little.
Speaker 13 (16:19):
Bit of batteries in there, that'll be all set. We're
looking for a note from you, the sender to the
child who might receive these shoebox gifts.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Now tell us how to find out where to drop
them off in our area.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Two ways.
Speaker 13 (16:31):
Check the Big Show dot Com a website for a
weblink to Operation Christmas Child. You'll find a zip code
locator there that'll tell you exactly where to go. It'll
give you the five closest locations nearest you. The other
way is to call our eight hundred number, which is
one eight hundred three five three five nine four nine.
And just because collection week is this week does not
(16:52):
mean it's too late to participate. We're collecting through next Monday.
Speaker 15 (16:54):
I think the neatest part about this is having kids
give to kids if you can get you.
Speaker 14 (17:00):
We're right here. Teaches children to give, not expecting anything
in return. A lot of things are based in the
United States on if you do this, such and such
will happen to you, and it teaches them the joy
of giving. You know, to help someone who can't possibly
give back to you.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Now I know each box when you go in, you're like,
don't tape them down or dunct table. Like A really
good idea would be like a rubber band around them.
Speaker 13 (17:22):
Just put a rubber band around your box and hand
it over to our collection center location. We're going to
get all these boxes into Samaritans person will take a
look at them, make sure there's nothing inappropriate for children.
Or nothing that might spill or break or damage other boxes,
and then we'll package them up, we'll tape them, and
then we'll send them on.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
So what about making out boxes like if you know
there's some girls stuff in it to put for a girl.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
Or put on the outside of the box.
Speaker 13 (17:47):
The beauty. One of the beauties of this project is
that you get to pick the age and gender of
the child that will receive your boxes. You choose, and
that's one of the great ways to personalize this project.
I have a nephew who's seven years old, and we
take him down to them oart of the Dollar Store
and we find things that he likes to put inside
the shoe boxes. He likes to fill the box with
match box toys as many as he can fit inside.
(18:08):
But we try to encourage him to have a little
r as well.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Well, Grandma, what's your week gonna be? Like, what are
you gonna be doing?
Speaker 14 (18:14):
We'll be hectic, but I'm gonna love it. Yeah, it's
gonna be getting up every morning going to the processing center.
And one of the reasons I really love being there
is because of the volunteers.
Speaker 15 (18:23):
And these are centers that take all the boxes, open
them up, make sure things are correct, and seal them
up appropriately, put them on palletts. It's like it's the
most amazing operation you've ever seen.
Speaker 8 (18:31):
That's seene Man.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Once you see what.
Speaker 15 (18:33):
Goes on inside one of these big centers, you understand
why the collection has to take place so early in
order to be shipped over in time.
Speaker 14 (18:40):
Just imagine. My favorite place to be is the garbage dumps.
I love to be in the garbage dumps because that's
where they live. There's no greater place to tell them
about Heaven. You're setting in the midst of all this garbage,
and I want to describe it for you. There's rats
running everywhere, there's dogs that have the mange, and these
people get them maybe a piece of plastic, and they
lay it down and they claim that spot that's their bed.
(19:02):
The plastic or the cardboard goes over because it stays
off the glass, you know, keeps them off the glass.
And then to set there to put a child on
your lap in the midst of all that, and said,
let me tell you about a place called heaven. And
you tell those kids you read and do exactly what
it says on the back, and I'll see you in heaven.
They don't want even the toys anymore. And these kids
(19:22):
that never get toys, they want to find out how
they can get to this place called heaven. It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Well that is neat.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
So this is the week and go to the Big
Show dot com. Click on the operation Christmas child Smares
pursa link right there and find a collection here you

We had cropped all day long. My cousin and I
had jumped into his sixty two beetle and run to
Boone Saloon to do what most seventeen year old tobacco
croppers do in Coffee County after a twelve hour day.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
In the field.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
We were being on getting some beer, well, knowing Homer's
reputation in the In fact, we were kN and knew
a lot more about Homer than he would care for
us too, getting beer was.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Not that much of a problem.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
This was back in nineteen seventy three. We had left
the social club and taken Highway four forty one toward
Pridgin when my cousin decided the road worthiness of his
VW should be challenged. At that time, we decided to
take one seventeen dirt at that time back home. We
had been on the dirt for about five minutes when
we spotted a buzzard up ahead in the middle of
(29:26):
the road. I only had a minute when I knew
what my cousin had already decided. Going back for a second,
I'd like to remind and enlighten you on our vehicle
of choice, a nineteen sixty two VW, beetle good tires,
eight ball shifter, handled black semi leatherette seats, bent steering
will and rust all the way around each window, one
lonely headlight, one running board, bottomless dash, and a wiper.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
That could be shared.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
Do he eat people?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
When I realized that the buzzard was a target for
the VW, it was too late to do anything except
go along with it. My cousin shifted hard into third
gear and that little motor went to screaming as we
approached what we estimated to be thirty miles per hour.
Speedometer didn't work. By the time he went to fourth
we had made all preparations for impact. We had covered
(30:12):
every possible strategy that might occur, all of them except one.
Within striking distance. The great bird turned, looked us straight
in the face, and flapped his huge wings once, and
we were on him. Cublam boy or bird did not
expect what happened next. With one motion of his wings,
he had managed to place his body in line with
(30:33):
our windshield.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
We hit hard.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
As I looked out, I saw the windshield fold up
around the bird and fly past us into the rear
of the car through a hail of broken glass and
extremely rusty VW parts.
Speaker 11 (30:46):
Wooo.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
My cousin brought the heap to a stop on the
side of the dirt road. After about two seconds of
solid screaming. We were asking each other. We were asking
each other if we were okay, whoa We were lucky
not to get hurt, but hey, that poor unfortunate, innocent bird,
(31:10):
we thought. As we heard a noise in the back
seat that sounded like the rolling away of a mighty stone.
In slow motion. When we turned around with our mouths
open and eyes wide, I could feel those things tightened
that you always hear older folks talk about. We were
now about eight inches away from the biggest, ugliest, and
apparently maddest bird I had ever seen. I tried to scream,
(31:37):
but all that came out was ip ip. Now we
realize this bird ain't hurt real bad, and it's probably
tougher than any animal we have ever treed. It was
at this moment in time decisions had to be made quickly.
As it became apparent what our decision was, the great
(31:57):
bird leaned forward into the front as if he were
on the attack, and spewed the most horrid, smelling and
feeling white liquid from his mouth that I had ever witnessed.
We were covered before we could get the doors open.
Suddenly our screams were audible. Out of the car and
(32:21):
now at a dead, barefooted run, we made way for
a large sycamore tree on the side of the road.
Dry heaves, dry heaves, and all yes. At this time
the situation is looking grim. Has bound happenson or later
we were covered in something that seems to be on
the verge of removing upper levels of skin with no
(32:42):
water or anything to get it off. Results. Two teenagers
on the ground rolling like dogs in the dirt after
a bath didn't help. Now we're covered with dirt filled
buzzard vomit. Now a young man whippers, why didn't you
stop me? You you're crazy. You knew when you shifted
(33:02):
there was no going back.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Well.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
After a little more arguing and a scuffle to the
side who was getting the bird out, the buzzard stumbled
from the v W boy who were shocked as they
slowly made steps toward us. Next situation, panic stricken teenage
boys as we frantically looked for an escape. The bird
turned and slowly flew off with no apparent injury. The
(33:31):
trip home was slow and quiet, with an occasional gag
or he from the odor in the car. We bathed
in the barn after a good whipping from my uncle,
not because of the beer of the bird, but for
going to Boom saloon.
