Texas Independence Day is March 2, so this is an older reprint of a neat article penned by Bum. Now if only his boy, Wade, could be the coach he was....

I went to Italy and the tour said to wear your most comfortable shoes, so I wore my cowboy boots.
With jet lag in my eyes a small group of us sauntered over to a corner store and ordered up some cappuccino's. The old guy behind the counter, not serving us, was just sitting there smoking a cigar.
"Americano?"
"Si."
With that I lifted up my foot high enough so he could see my cowboy boot over the counter.
He took the cigar out of his mouth, smiled and said, "Ah! Texas!"

Anyway, this fella asked me to reprint what I'd wrote and I didn't have it. So I set out to think about rewriting something.
Evidentally, being a Texan also means either not using a computer, or using a computer but failing to save your work.
BTW - I love Texas. (and saving my work)

“Last year, I talked about all the great places and great heroes who make Texas what it is. I talked about Willie and Waylon and Michael Dell and Michael DeBakey and my Dad and LBJ and Denton Cooley”.
I am a born and raised Texan, not currently living in the Lone Star State. However I must take exception with Willie and LBJ as being listed a “heroes”. Ain’t buying that.

Did you know “Don’t mess with Texas” was actually anti-litter campaign created by Texas state government?

Texas is a State of Mind, Heart and Attitude.
That goes something like this:
“Leave us alone to live our lives in peace and we will get along fine, if that his not satisfactory, we will deal with it.”
