A tip of the old white Stetson to Ivan at Thrilling Days of Yesteryear, who scooped me on this one.
Welcome to Charter.net - News: "FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Better known for portraying on-screen cowboys, Tommy Lee Jones and Barry Corbin were among six people inducted into the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame on Thursday night.
'By God, y'all are cowboys too,' Gov. Rick Perry told the actors as the crowd of about 600 laughed.
Jones, an eighth-generation Texan who raises cattle and polo ponies on his 3,000-acre ranch, said he had won many awards but had never felt they were about him.
'This might be the first time that I've taken an award personally,' Jones said. 'This is the first time in all my long years of award-winning that I wish my granddad could be here.'"
