I have a book that is about Texas oilmen, at one time he owed a midland bank 500 million he was paying them 21 million a month in interest and principal.
Hard to come back from that hole but he did .
I got a lot of respect for that guy. There are some employees that are millionaires because of him in midland.

He compared the cold, foggy weather spoiling the event to a rape, telling ranch hands, campaign workers and reporters around a campfire, ''If it's inevitable, just relax and enjoy it.''

Ephesians 4:4-6 KJV
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
