I’m glad Collins is interested in the Alamo. It’s almost a holy experience visiting there. It’s like visiting the site of the Little Big Horn battle. Very historic well known places.

Phil, don’t make the same mistake Ozzy Osburne did. Use the Rest Room. They’re in the basement by the bicycle rack.

hmm.. I have a thing for pre 1900s Britain.. folks are always into the opposite culture..

having been from lush green Michigan, I do have a new found appreciation for desert climate.. And I also understand the love for Texas. those are real folks there. it’s damn hot and it’s humid.. a guy has be sturdy enough to take it.

I love Texas. Only been there once.

Dont know when the last time you were at Little Big Horn, but it has succumbed to political correctness long ago. I remember going there as a kid, and hearing the story from a park ranger. My last stop there was about 7 years ago with my kids, and the park service had a native storyteller on staff give a 2 hour presentation on the indians side of the story, and how bad Custer was. The gist of the presentation was that this was not a national monument, this was a national tragedy, and that the white man was wrong and bad.
