Took you a long time to come up with that one Bill. Once again, I'm not JL. The nickname, which for whatever reason appears to anger you, has a story behind it which I'm not going to get into. No, I don't drive a Volvo, they're ugly and expensive. I drive a Ford truck. The point, one more time for you is this; Me and JL believe that the ranchhouse is a kind gesture but wish that Reba would help SE Oklahoma more. There it is again the same way it has been said before. I'm sorry your lack of education or mental capacity does not allow you to comprehend this. Too much country music can do that to you. As for KXII allowing your posts to go through, considering your references to the size of my genitalia and my sexual preference (which is heterosexual), I've thought about sending them a nasty e-mail. If you have anything else to say don't wait two weeks this time, I'm having too much fun shooting you down.

Wow you really don't give up do you Bill. First of all it's R-E-B-A. Learn to spell her name. It's in the article above, the posts below and probably all over your CD's since you're such a fan of her. I assure you I'm not JL, I just couldn't stand watching you trash talk him when you have no clue as to what he is talking about. Anyway, I actually am college educated so don't talk to me like I'm white trash when you can't even spell a four letter name correctly. And by the way I don't own a saddle, horses, or any of that mess. I'm from a small town and my nickname is Cowboy. Doesn't mean I grew up in the country listening to Reba. Also my family knows Reba. She doesn't even have a country accent until she gets on TV. She's a sell-out. Thanks for your time Bill and, JL, I support your thoughts.

Hey Bill, pay attention. I brought up Rodman, not JL. He is not contradicting himself. He is stating his point very clearly. He is happy that she is doing something kind and doesn't want people to think otherwise. He and I both simply think that she could help out southern Oklahoma a little, not just Texas.

That was exactly my point JL,What is your point?First you chastize her then you praise her......then throw in Rodman..I stand by my first post, and i did re-read your post several times....hence what is your point?

Her personal OBGYN is Dr.Darius Madge who was a long time Dr. who had many paitents in Denison.This is how it all started,her contact with him!!AS it grew over the years many things were done for TMC.I don't think she chose one area or the other,i just think she had a very close relationship with DR. Madge and decided to help the efforts at TMC and the whole area.TMC serves a very wide area.I don't think it is dis repspect of the other mentioned area's!!Thank Reba for it because LOTS of SE Oklahomans and All of Texoma are helped everyday in someway that is connected to all Rebas help!!!

I have heard that Reba's sister had a child who was critically ill and was in the hospital at TMC. She makes her donations to TMC to help people from Southern Oklahoma and North Texas. Very thankful for her kindness.

Seems odd to me to abandon a perfectly good building where the current Reba's Ranch House is, especially in these economic times. If there is that much money available to throw around, it sure looks like there could be better uses of it. Who says it has to be right next door to the new building. The existing building is absolutely beautiful. What is going to happen to all of the buildings around the current TMC? Such a waste. I agree with some of the southern OK comments...I've always wondered why she doesn't do stuff for them. Why TMC...why not closer to where she is really from?

First off Bill, there is no stretch to speak of - I'm not comparing Dennis Rodman to Reba whatsoever. If you'd take the defensive attitude down a couple of notches and re-read my comments, you see that it was simply a response to the post directly below mine. Secondly, as I said in my original post, I have no problems with the efforts she has made towards TMC and it's facilities. It's wonderful that Reba has helped so many Texomans through the Ranch House. My question is simply one that has been echoed by MANY people from this area over the years. Whether you like it or not, it IS a bit ironic (and worth mentioning) that most of her "published" efforts have been focused on areas south of the border when her family and pre-career time was spent in the Atoka/Stringtown to Durant area.
