Depending on where that 120 acres is and what the situation was he could absolutely have grown up “poor.” Sole income source for a family dies and leaves behind only some land worth $x while single mother now tries to make a living? Absolutely they could have been at the poverty level after the money from selling/mortgaging/whatever the land dried up.
The family still owns the land…
ETA: owning a bunch of land doesn’t seem poor to me. Getting evicted from a bunch of apartments growing up because your parents couldn’t make rent seems poor, and was my experience.

Yeah, this. I’m assuming it’s like WC Fields’ billiards routine. You have to be pretty accomplished at something to be able to appear so fully and perfectly incompetent at it. I actually think both of those pics are pretty great.
Just a reminder that the original Family Feud theme slaps:

Has some Mighty Mighty Bosstones meets The Devil Went Down to Georgia thing going.
I assume this is, somehow, bad news for Joe Biden.

Damn I’m going to have to check on that one. Pre-pandemic a 2.5lb bag of frozen wings was $8.99, then it shot up to $14.99, then $10.99, and about two weeks ago it was back at $14.99. Maybe I’ve been keeping an eye on it.
in the poker game of life, Wings are the rake.
