Bubba, while not the brightest bulb in a socket, was a gifted portrait artist. His fame grew and soon people from all over the country were coming to him for paintings.
One day a beautiful young woman pulled up to his house in a stretch limo. She asked Bubba if he would paint her in the nude. This was the first time anyone had made just a request. The beautiful lady said money was no object; she was willing to pay $50,000.
Not wanting to get into trouble with his wife, Bubba asked the lady to wait while he went in the house and conferred with Betty Lou, his wife. In a few minutes he returned and said to the lady, "Okay, I'll paint ya nekkid, but I'll have ta leave my socks on, so's I can have some place to wipe my brushes."

About Me
- Don Doyle, DMin, PhD
- Since 1966, I have functioned in some official capacity as a psychotherapist, minister, or counselor. In that period of time, I have logged more than 50,000 hours of listening to people from forty-two states and eighteen foreign countries. In addition, I was in the pastoral ministry for thirteen years, ten of which was spent in one church. Prior to entering the ministry, I served as a Naval Aviation Officer. I joined the Navy to see the world and spent three years in Florida! Nonetheless, those three years were invaluable to me personally and professionally. The value of my military experience was equal to a post-graduate degree. In addition to my work as a psychotherapist, I enjoy conducting seminars, conferences, and key-note addresses to corporations, civic groups, churches, and counseling centers. For eight years, I was Associate Director of the Burlingame (California) Counseling Center. Since 1987, I have directed the Doyle Family Counseling Center in Memphis, Tennessee.
