Content
When a reporter asks an old man about the tornado that has just destroyed his home, the man recounts some of the people he has lost during his life a father, a brother, a best friend, his left hand, and, most recently, his wife of fifty years and explains that losing a measly house aint nothin by comparison. Unlike his deep-down emotional bruises, the rubble in which he stands aint nothin time wont erase and aint nothin money cant replace.
