I'm glad to read I'm not the only oneReader comment on: Oil Baron Tex Richman Submitted by Karlyle Young (United States), Dec 4, 2011 19:27 I grew up thinking The Muppet Show was the pinnacle of television entertainment. I was really looking forward to seeing the new movie and introducing my daughter to the Muppets. However, like you, when I read the synopsis of the movie I decided I could spend my time and money elsewhere. My husband and I have an excavating business and have worked for oil companies building and reclaiming drilling locations. We paid our employees enviable wages, which was possible by a few Tex Richmans. We have yet to be paid by an environmentalist to do anything.

You were smart to figure out what you would have been getting into. And you are right, the old TV show was excellent. Other reader comments on this item
