<<I'm a transplant, BTW ... from KY. Yankee, sorta, 'territory,' eh?>>
Yeah, LOL, AC-DC in a sort of Mason-Dixon sort of way. KY never did join the Confederacy, a point I use with great relish upon an old service buddy of mine, a JLA think-alike, every time I get the chance. Goads his goat big time!
But re Texas, I remember before the presidential election posting somewhere on SI (although their limp search engine can't locate it now) paraphrasing Carville, "It's Texas, stupid!"
Prescient, eh?
