Born in Oregon, became a naturalized Texan when I reported for duty at Fort Bliss on 7/8/1976. It’s the last bastion of freedom in America. We have too many economic refugees from Blue States that think they’re smarter and more morally superior to the rest of us.

I remember a flight from Atlanta about 10 years ago. I sat next to a dude from California that hated Texas. We were able to have a conversation because I grew up in the same area of California.

As we were near DFW, he was surprised by the multitude of man made lakes. I told him the only natural lake is Lake Caddo in East Texas. My last remark was “I guess that means Texans are smarter than you think.”

Hi!
thanks for the nice epistle

yes, all that “down home” hokey-ness and “beer and football” culture....is really great but leftists from northern big cities misunderstand it

Texans are mostly quite smart, at least about important things. This is evident from their decision to live in TX instead of filthy communistic northern cities with high taxes, oppressive laws and regulations

(real and artificial lakes included)
cheers,
