the place shuts down....."
I think all libs should read up on Texas before considering relocation.
The summers are hot!! Hot...I tell ya. Like Fallujah in the summer. There isn’t a lot of snow in the winter but when the obligatory ice storm hits the place shuts down. I know they think they can drive on it...but rethink, rethink. The hurricanes in the south are bad...but boy, oh boy, when one hits Dallas every few years it flattens the place and it has to be rebuilt.
And bugs!! I have seen water bugs the size of cocker spaniels in my kitchen. And snakes! The copperrattlermocasin is indigenous to the area. They are bad news. I was bit by one myself once. No hospital FOR MILES! If Rooster hadn’t shown up just in the nick of time and carried me to McAlister I’d be a goner.
We all have six-shooters on our hips and shoot outs occur on the streets at least twice daily. While we ride to work on our horses dodging the tumbleweeds.
I would go on...but it would make me sound like I don’t love living here...which I absolutely do.:)
I don't know what Fallujah's humidity is , but after living in a high desert for the past 20 years, I don't think any place with humidity like East Texas is on my radar.
I went to the DFW area during the month of August for a job interview...
I swear...I thought SC in the summertime was bad...folks running their AC day and night, night and day, all day, everyday. Practically sprinting from the bldgs to their cars to crank the AC...
I got the job, right back to here in the high desert...
LOL! My sister lives in a southern state in her own little slice of paradise. She likes to reinforce the stereotypes that liberals love to make about southerners as being backward rednecks. She’s hoping that false image will serve to deter northern libs from moving into their area.
