Not sure why it’s the Brazos and not the Trinity or Pecos (although the Pecos headwaters in New Mexico), but whatever. And since we’re ‘dunkin’ maybe we could bring donuts along...

I think because the Brazos IS Texas!

..The original colonial 'capital' of Texas was San Felipe de Austin in Austin County on the Brazos...(not to be confused with present day Austin in Travis County)

..the first skirmish against Mexican authority was on the Brazos...

..there's quite a bit of history on the Brazos.

Texans are proud of the Brazos.

(and I prefer krispy Kremes :)

Medellin's family anxiously waited at the prison near Houston where the 33-year-old is due to be executed

He was an illegal, I'll bet they are too....

Well yes, that all makes sense (including the Krispy Kremes). And we shouldn't forget Washington on the Brazos.

But then, I don't want to slight San Jacinto, San Antonio or Goliad, either. But for 'dunkin' purposes I agree with the Brazos...

I wouldn’t think of slighting any of those fine Texas cities :)

You must have had help coming up with that clever retort.

Whereas you manage to prove that even a dimwit can recycle tired jokes.

Well, I see you have managed to hit rock bottom and have asked for a pick.

Bye-bye, Little One.

If you possessed maturity you wouldn’t be prolonging your little pissing contest. Res ipsa loquitur.

I attempted to stop it a couple of days ago, but I guess you just have to get in the last word.

So, little woman, get your last word in and we'll call it a wrap! Okay?
