Ah, okay.

Well, one sure way to tell a true Texan from all the imitations out there is to ask someone to say oil. Some outsiders can come close after much practice, but it doesn't just flip right off the tongue like it will when a Texan says it.

oil.

Then ask them if they like the smell of oil. A true Texan will always say yes! without hesitation.

You Texans are so flavorful! I love the good-ole-boy dialect and bravado. I'd love to visit sometime. Is there a way to become an honorary Texan? I'd like to use some of the expressions, too. Indiana is so boring. While Dubya is "smokin' 'em out" and all we have to offer is "Hoosier Hospitality."
