True Grit and Twang: The Return of Texas Slim
Download MP3Hey, I miss ya’ll….I’m back~
At least as far as doing that hippy-punk-cowboy kinda talkin….dang do I have some stories to share.
This new series that I am calling “Yeehaw - Hippy-punk-cowboy talk” is going to be random, it’s going to come from the heart, and it will have some sarcasm and a little West Texas Dirt Road Twang to it.
I’ve been to a few places and I’ve done a few things throughout my lifetime and now it’s time to give you some perspective of who this ole boy is, the vision I had in the beginning and the very clear vision I currently have.
And we’re all going to move forward together….time to step up and focus in on the true art of story tellin.
I’ll tell ya one thing, it’s time to pull the trigger folks!
A train wreck is coming but don’t go frettin…we built out a new rail system and the rail transition is ready to go. We’ve tested and have the results to prove it.
I’ll be tellin' ya’ll stories of my life, which started out by me looking up at the sky.
I come from the “Llano Estacado,” the “Dessert High Plains” a place that is referred to as the “Caprock” and the land of the Comanches, “Comancheria”.
THE Texas Panhandle!
THE World Headquarters of the Beef Initiative and the I Am Texas Slim Foundation.
And boy howdy has it been one hell of a ride. 160k miles driven, 3 continents explored, 1.5 trips around the globe all on the quest for the most fascinating journey and exploration of global #BeefIntelligence the the world has ever had….and all that done in less than 3 years….you should hear about the prior 40 before that…
Oh, and btw it's just getting started so, let’s all pay attention and get a new “Yeehaw” swagger that is ready to scream across the world.
We are about to start the next local and global modern-day cattle drive and every one of you is a hired hand and it’s time to pull yourselves up by your bootstraps and saddle up.
We have got some catastrophic winds coming our way and I am going to do my best to communicate what I see and how the next two years are going to play out from my perspective.
Since I just hired ya’ll on, I'm going to tell you what your job is and what tasks you are going to have moving forward. If we do a good job I’ll be throwing a big ole International Cattleman’s Feast and it will be on me.
I’ll just ask that you start living with integrity, and with a new focus. It takes a little practice at first but you’ll get the hang of it. Kinda like how ole Cole Bolton became a professional team roper. One miss at a time. He always saddles back up, he and his roping partner take a deep breath, and as a team, they go get the job done one calf at a time. Cole don’t talk much about his skills, but he has many at his disposal.
Folks, the Beef Initiative was started with a foundational spirit that is extremely rare and extremely sought after, it's the spirit of the great American Cowboy.
See, I am punchy as hell, I’m from West Texas…Ole Cole, he’s from East Texas, I think he talks funny.
Anyways, back to the cowboy spirit I was referring to. There are so many cowboys that behave and talk funny in so many ways. Ole Jason Wrich, a stern talker he is!
I can’t wait to get back on the stage with Jason at the 2nd Colorado Beef Initiative Summit…His Colorado Cowboy slur kinda straightens your posture up for you. You need to come try it. He’ll put your butt at attention!
See cowboys do a lot of hard, difficult, funny, and stupid things. Did I ever tell you the time I got airlifted across the southern Rockies? Hell, come to find out I was in a chopper, not a Cessna. I could have swore I was a glidin, not choppin… that morphine was strong, I‘ll give it that much…
To be clear. We’re all tough as shit. Kinda overly hard-headed, soft at the right times but most of all we are the ones you want to be looking at and listening to.
So, I am going to throw in some “Yippe-Ki Yay” and we are going to start a big ole production here.
I’m going to use ya’ll as my dress rehearsal to start broadcasting a Worldwide #BeefIntelligence Kingdom Series I call the new International Lifestyle…
I grew up watching Jacques Cousteau scuba dive the Blue Hole. As little boyI told myself that I would do that one day…and I did.
I also met Caesar in the jungle of Belize as I floated down the Mopan in the canoe he gave me, looking back and waving goodbye to Black Rock…No, not that Black Rock……
I’m going to share my adventures and what I discovered. I am extremely excited to tell you about the
Ride of Passage we completed in December across Northern Thailand. An adventure that was engineered by my dear friend Captain Sidd, He took us to the Golden Triangle and to the seat of the Chinese Mafia in Kings Roman. The human, drug trafficking, and international money laundering that goes on in this part of the world is fascinating. Big story developing out of this part of the world I assure you.
By sharing all this, rest assured ya’ll will be the first to know that I’m going to start playing some Texas Hold 'em poker with those powers that be who are trying to separate each one of us from our #MarketAccess to our own beef and to our personal spirit and freedom.
I’m about to “Cowboy Up” in a way that I’ve been waiting for. See I come from agricultural poverty and those dirt roads of West Texas have given me somethin that I like to call
”True Grit” - The Only Way I Know.
I’m here to save children's lives. The innocence of our children is currently being robbed and has been stolen in a way that I don’t approve of. I’m done with the Harvest of Deception.
AND
I’m done with all the bull shit.
My next moves are not going to be for the faint of heart and for those who have no ears to hear or eyes to see.
Love ya’ll
I Am Texas Slim, are you?
And a little ps….I’ll be sharing some insights into how this ole country boy brain works and some of my consuming habits.
There’ll be some “Slim-isms” thrown in every once in a while - “Source of the Seed.”
Also, I love listenin' to some good ole West Texas Red Dirt…Here is one from a local boy who needs more support. He is punchy like me. He, too, comes from the dirt roads of West Texas.
Ya’ll listen to his message. We are in the midst of the biggest fundraiser and campaign of awareness of our lives right now up here in the Texas Panhandle. Our ranchers and our cattle and our land need your attention and your support!
