Nemer:
Texas is kinda the place to be for varied weather so one doesn't get stuck in a rut
You are talking to someone who has lived there so be careful<GGG>. I remember being in Irving, Texas, sunbathing on Thursday and sliping and sliding in the snow and ice THAT weekend. I know all about if you don't like the weather wait till tomorrow.
As far as catching bass or shooting ducks, no problem here. We even have the migrant workers to help pick the vegtables. In fact, we can catch real fish here, and lobster too. We don't have to worry about ticks and blizzards. People even talk without the long stories too, saves a lot of time. You know what I mean? Here, they say, someone is "unappreciative" in Texas speak it's Hell, he wouldn't be happy if ya strung him with a new rope.<vbg> Also here we just say someone is trying to "con you" rather than Ees gonna rape ya without kissin ya first.
No. I am afraid-no offence to you but, the country singer(who I believe is from Texas) summed it up in the song "happiness in Texas in my rearview mirror" (see another story.
Texas-v-Florida no contest IMHO. Sorry but you started it. (VBG)
