...mosquitos the size of buzzards...

I saw one fly away with a neighbors kid just the other day and it's not even spring yet.

And don't forget the bugs. Cockroaches as big as dogs and then the scorpions and snakes.

Not fit for humans here.

Yeah, but that’s true for all of the country’s mid-section from New Orleans to Minneapolis. I had a guy in Minnesota tell me that the mosquitos were so big there that they all had to have “N” numbers and get clearance to land.
As for Texas, let’s not forget the Tarantulas and the Armadillos, and that poisonous weed, Poke Salad, that you can eat if you boil the hell out of it.

LOL! Y'all forgot about the plant life - cactus with thorns long as yore fingers, cockle-burrs, chigger-seeds, foxtails, bull nettle, sumac, poison ivy.

Everybody thinks we Texans stand tall 'cause we're are tough, but it's really because we're just too skeered to fall to the ground....so y'all stay away now, ya hear?

:-)
