A collection of casually researched and regurgitated stories about a very productive man from early Texas. Welcome to 55 Folks - we'll see you for episode 4 shortly.
Native Texan and professional surveyor here, cool stuff. Stumbled upon this after watching the Tecumseh Sherman vid. Had to show this to my boss, he loves Surveyor history and Texas history.
That’s funny! There’s another Texas man who had an amphibious car and would punk his passengers that the brakes were out while going in the lake. It was LBJ.
Gail Borden. Buffalo Bayou is one of many Bayous in and around Houston, Texas. Buffalo Bayou flows through downtown Houston and ultimately drains into Galveston Bay. It was the basis of the Houston Ship Channel.
I grew up in Texas and this told me SO MANY things that were a part of my childhood than I never knew was connected, much less how. Borden's milk, Borden's condensed milk, Elmer's glue, were ubiquitous. Amazing to have some of my ignorance relieved!
So the meat biscuits were a flop, but can we all agree he was ahead of his time? If he were alive today and saw Impossible Meat and Beyond Burger in stores flying off the shelves he would feel ROBBED! LOL
General Santa Ana had a Holy Sacrifice of the Mass offered for the dead of the Alamo for consecutive days plus gave the women & children food shelter clothing etc and returned them safely to Northern TX afterwards.
@@55Folks🔥something magical is definitely happening 🫂 As I'm sure you will hear more and more as the channel catches on - something magical is definitely happening (thank you🖤)

Borden chocolate milk is the best chocolate milk.
Your intro soundtracks remind me so much of @bobbybroccoli's documentaries!
My Motto in life? "Never give up".
It's one that might end you, but then again? What's life without a little spice.
I can't believe i get at least 55 of these videos‼️ Life is pretty fuckin good 👍
Buffalo Bayou is in Houston (now. It wasn't Houston then.)
