"Davy Crocket has been my hero since I was a five year old in 1954, when I and others of my generation used to wear our imitation coon skin caps, plastic fringed imitation buckskin jeans and jackets, while carrying around plastic sticked flint locks with percussion caps that used to sting the sides of our cheeks when we pulled the triggers."

You and me both!

"Davy, Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier!"

And the Alamo is indeed a special place, when you read the names of the men on the monument out front, and think of that cowardly skirt-wearing Santa Ana.

I have been in many places, and there are only three or four where I would want to live, and San Antonio is the only city where I would want to live.
