[TEXASPROUD]

My FreeperName says it all! Squantos, put your 2 cents in on the Panhandle.

By the way, all my brother-in-laws in Ireland introduce me as "The Texan". I had an interesting encounter with a Scotsman in an Irish Pub. When he found out I was from Texas he made a comment about another "Yankee". I asked him if I had insulted him in any way. He replied," No. Why?" I said, I'm a Texan not some Damnyankee. He said, "Your from America, you're all yankess."

At this point, the only retort I could think of was, "Do all you Englishmen believe that?" He replied with the finest, thickest, Scots burr, I'm from Scotland, not bloody England." I replied," Your from the British Isles, same difference." At this point he said, "My God, is it that bad?" I said, "It tis."

Next thing I know I have a Pint of Guiness from an apologetic man.
