Jim,
I heard so many of those stories growing up. My dad had one for about every moment in life.
"We were so poor...
that we walked to school with no shoes.
I had one pair of jeans.
so poor, we couldn't even pay attention.
if I hadn't been born a boy I wouldn't have had anything to play with.
had to go out and hunt and kill some game for dinner.
had to go out side to the restroom.
left school in the 7th. grade to work in the fields.
