JOHNNY HORTON-WHISPERING PINES Johnny Horton From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Johnny Horton Birth name John Gale Horton Born April 30, 1925(1925-04-30) Origin Los Angeles, California United States Died November 5, 1960 (aged 35) Genre(s) Country music Occupation(s) Singer Notable instrument(s) Guitar Johnny Horton (April 30, 1925 -- November 5, 1960) was an American country music singer who was most famous for his semi-folk, so-called "saga songs" which launched the "historical ballad" craze of the late 1950s and early 1960s. With them, he had several major crossover hits, most notably in 1959 with "The Battle of New Orleans" which won the 1960 Grammy Award for Best Country & Western Recording. The song won the Grammy Hall of Fame Award and in 2001 was named number 333 of the Songs of the Century. In 1960, Horton had two other crossover hits with "Sink the Bismarck" and "North to Alaska". Horton was also a rockabilly singer, and was inducted into the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. Horton was born John Gale Horton in Los Angeles but raised in the town of Rusk in East Texas. His family trekked back and forth from California often as migrant fruit pickers but always returned to the Rusk/Gallatin area in Texas. After graduation from Gallatin High School in 1944, he attended on a basketball scholarship the Methodist-affiliated Lon Morris College (then called "Lon Morris Junior College") in Jacksonville, Texas, the oldest junior college in the state. Although he did not graduate from Lon Morris or any other college, he later attended Seattle University. Thereafter, he worked in California and Alaska. He returned to Texas and won a talent contest hosted by then-radio announcer Jim Reeves at the Reo Palm Isle club in Longview, the seat of Gregg County, and soon starred in the popular Louisiana Hayride in Shreveport, Louisiana. He remained a member of the Hayride until his death. In September 1953, he married Billie Jean Jones, who, in late 1952, had also been married to country music star Hank Williams for two and a half months prior to his death. Horton's first marriage to Donna Cook ended in a divorce, granted in Rusk. With Billie Jean, Johnny had two daughters, Yanina (Nina) and Melody. Billie Jean's daughter, Jerry, was also part of the family. On November 5, 1960, Horton was killed instantly in a head-on collision with a drunk driver on Highway 79 at Milano, Texas while he was returning home from a performance at the Skyline Club in Austin. There is no truth to the rumor that Horton was on his way to Dallas to meet actor Ward Bond about a role on the NBC television series Wagon Train. Bond was in Dallas at the time attending a football game. Bond died of a heart attack in Dallas just hours after Horton perished in the vehicular accident. A "Horton" did appear on Wagon Train — the actor Robert Horton, who portrayed the fictitious scout "Flint McCullough." Horton is buried in the Hillcrest Cemetery in Haughton east of Bossier City, Louisiana. He loved fishing as much, if not more, than singing and was once billed as "The Singing Fisherman." His favorite fishing holes abound through the Piney Woods of East Texas and northern Louisiana. Some songs with racist titles and content by Johnny Rebel are often falsely attributed to Horton. The confusion may have arisen because Horton had a hit Views: 2195 Rating:

RC Helicopter FISHING! Dave tries hand at "Heli Fishing" For you skeptics who say the fish was dead, I assure you it wasn't dead. I didn't see one of you there either! That said, I still risked my E-Flite Blade 400 for some entertainment for you (I used 3 batteries, hence the cut) as fun and challenging for me. I doubt most others would risk their $450 heli just to hover over the water, let alone dangle a line! This scenario shows it may be possible to use the Helicopter for fishing, however it would be expensive fishing. It is always terribly windy here, so on this calm day, those simple waves in the water was of no concern to a sunfish! It also helps to have lots of fish, like in our Sand Pit Pond where they bite on hooks with no bait! (actually I used fish eggs and the hook 24" from the bobber. Hey, you never know, if you don't try! ***Caution from past experience*** If the Tail rotor hits the water even slightly, it will immediately cause a crash. Big fish can drain batteries fast. It takes and hour to charge between flights of only 6 minutes, so this could be a long process to catch a fish. Sunfish are not big fighters. Fly easy and thanks for watching. I hope you found this entertaining no matter what. Be sure to subscribe for more unique stuff from Mr. Herbert's Science Class. and yes, I'm going to try it again, so stay tuned.

Alaska Predator Fishing The Salmon Shark video highlights the beauty and power of these magnificent Sharks. A 400lber first catch of the day, the captivating background of Prince William Sound, the contrast between the serenity of the surroundings and the vicious carnage that these Sharks unleash upon the returning Salmon will leave you in awe. The second Shark caught on tape is a nice 425lb magnificent beast, with more biting action after that. The Northern Pike video is captured in the warm waters of Lake Clark. Our fishing guide Jeff Duck has one of the best fishing days of his life catching a 49inch watermelon on his first cast. The next three Pike were all over 45inches and the camera was there for this once in a life time action. This is Salmon Shark fishing and Alaska Northern Pike fishing at its best. This incredible 45min feature is photographer Nathan Kimmell's second addition on Alaska Fishing. The first release was the Alaskan Adventure & Fishing Guide DVD, a look at different locations around Alaska and the different guides, charters and fishing lodges. This is a perfect DVD for anyone planning an Alaska fishing vacation. This release explores a new theme; hard hits, sharp teeth, and long runs are the subjects for this fishing DVD.

Afghan Soldiers Fishing with an RPG My brother served in Afghanistan while I was in Iraq. He witnessed demonstrations of Afghani soldiers using an RPG to "fish". Another soldier did the filming and editing. You probably thought using dynamite was wild until you see these guys use an RPG at 20 meters. Awesome!!!!!

Salmon Fishing Northern California The fine taste of the King Salmon, fresh from today's catch is like no other fish. All the fishermen onboard know and the action gets a little frantic when it is time to land the beautiful fish. The waters off the coast of Northern California have been rich in the Salmon that gourmets love and that supplies valuable nutrition for the body. As a fished is hooked shouts of "fish on" are heard and the chaos of landing it often involve the skipper, mate and other fishermen. With more than one fish online at a time the action is fast and furious. When the limit of 2 fish per person the boat heads back to the harbor early "limited out" and full of happy people. The coast is beautiful and the sea mercifully and unusually calm. Views: 105056 Rating:
