Earl Campbell, "Sausage Guy"

Last night...

Jeff: The Earl Campbell kolaches at Shipley's are awesome!
JeffC: Earl Campbell?
Jeff: He's a sausage guy.
Me (appalled): Uh... AMAZING Houston Oilers running back! Heisman trophy winner from UT. He's a football legend, not a "sausage guy" like Jimmy Dean.
JeffC: Jimmy Dean is a singer.

:)

So, yeah. It turns out Jimmy Dean the sausage guy is also Jimmy Dean the singer. How is anyone supposed to know that?

It had been remodeled into "the kids' space" to hang out, with tables, etc. inside it. We were constantly out there playing cards. We also went to the lake several times as a big group.
