KT congrats on your move to Texas! Glad things are going well.

That story about the Radar you used on your son... hilarious. He'll probably tell all his friends how smooth you are at spotting the babes.

Glad to hear you made it KT. Your making me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside with all this praising of Texas, but hell its all true.

Nice radar story. Mine works good but not 2 blocks away. But then again it doesnt need to. Its Texas and I'm in a college town so there is never a hot girl more than 2 blocks away.

And its blowng like crazy here. Gusts of up to 50mph I think they said. Howling outside right now.

Sorry to hear about the marital problems but that's no reason to rip on real BBQ. That pork BBQ is the one thing I miss from the SE.

and most important - Welcome to the Republic of Texas KT. You do know that you have to report to Austin within 60 days for an official citizenship test don't you. Couple of pointers for ya:

1 - It is a state felony punishable by up to five years in the Huntsvile correctional center to make dispariging remarks about Nolan Ryan, Roger Clemens, Earl Campbell, Bum Phillips, or Tom Landry.

2 - It is a state felony punishable by up to 25 years in the Huntsvile correctional center if you don't know who each of these people are.

3 - Cowboy hats, cowboy boots, a FORD PSD and a side arm are required and not optional.

Enjoy Texas.

Thats the truth alright. I was coming to class the otehr day at about 6 the morning and it was alil cool with a light breeze and long sleeve shirt on. By noon i was sweating in a shirt sleeve I had changed into. Now its windy as hell and gusts of up to 45+. At least its not picking up the sand yet.

And its not bragging if its true, its spreading the truth to the less fortunate.

I hope the ones I have since I was 3 or 4 still count. I do have a few straw hats. And I did dress up in boots and a cowboy hat for my bros wedding a few years back so I'm in the clear. WHEEW

Well,I want a hat,I have looked at a few but havent found the one I like yet.but forget the boots,that aint happenin!As big as my feet are they would make me get a boat license!I wonder,if one boot has a tag,would the other one be exempt?And Mil1ion,I think I have been to that carwash!And the pic of the fitness center was tooooo funny!Heck,I have even learned some spanish already.I cant repeat it here though,the mechanic that works next to me is mexican,and I asked him to translate a few things he was calling the truck he was working on.Too funny!I figured I would mess with one of the service advisers,so i asked the guy next to me to help me out,So he told me to say and excuse me if i spell it wrong but it sounds like,Tu Vaco waylay cagata,which means,,,,Your breath smells like crap!Hehehehe!At first the adviser took me seriously and said really and put his hand to his mouth,then he figured it out and said,OK,WHO PUT YOU UP TO IT!Even he started laughing!Man I love it here!
