Hey, Dave.
The prince of this world rewards the here & now.
The GOD of heaven AND earth WILL reward for evil intent towards others.
Dave Hester is a greedy evil butt head. I did not miss him a bit while he was gone. Listening to him price items, he is rather expensive. When he had his store I could not have afforded to shop in it.
Butt Head? Really? Is that all you hot?
If everyone on this show was nicey nicey it would have lasted about 1 season.
Dave Hester is a big fat pig.
He always lies about the value of his merchandise
