Then I'd gather that you have never been to "Memphis in May." Both pork and beef are cued, and it is absolutely wonderful.

I had heard great things about Texas BBQ before I got here. When I finally got some, I was sorely disappointed. Don't get me wrong. It's not bad, but it definitely ain't the best.

Fuhgedaboudit!

Texas is great.. It is the only state that can fly it's flag at the same height as the U.S. Flag. It is in the laws that we can still pull away from the union, it's legal to walk down the street with a shotgun or rifle in your hands! But you can still be arrested for carrying wire cutters in your pocket!

Funny, I had heard great things about Memphis BBQ, and was disappointed with it when I tried it. To each his own, I guess.

Our capitol is the only one in the country that is taller than the capitol building in D.C.

Actually, "it is the largest of all state capitol buildings and is second in total size only to the National Capitol in Washington, D.C. In fact, like several other state Capitol buildings, the Texas Capitol surpasses the National Capitol in height, rising seven feet above its Washington counterpart. "

You fly the Stars and Stripes in front of Pine Tree High in Longview at 20 feet, and the Lone Star flies at 20 feet.

Isn't that a Medical School or they have a Medical School??
What's your major?.......


SWT does not have a medical school but Southwestern may, that is in Georgetown. I am a Economics and Finance major. Even though I do not take pride in this fact SWT(then Southwest Texas Normal School)is LBJs alma mater. So SWT is the ONLY school in Texas to have a President graduate from it.
