You're about 50 years too late for me  :P


Avenger, if you don't have allergies here (Central Texas - I'm a little north of Austin), you might not have allergies.  :D  I suffer year round, but even a lot people who say they don't have allergies seem to be afflicted during the springtime here.

We went back down for a vacation one winter about 20 years ago.  Camped at North Padre, Rockport, and Canyon Lake.  I was sick the entire time except on the beach when the wind was blowing straight in from the gulf.   =(

Richardson area. Probably be here a few more years since I just got a real job here.
Maybe a rare occurence, but then you only have to get murdered once to ruin your whole day.

I am aware of what comes from Texas.

Heh, one of my pals is from Texas.  He talks about how much he likes eating Buffalo testicles sometimes.

The new Houston mayor is a lesbian so I doubt the police chief was going to say anything else. 

I've heard people joke about people who eat cow testicles (rocky mountain oysters), but I never met anyone who actually eats them or at least admits to it.  When I was a kid and we had a cow butchered, my mother fed stuff like that to the dogs. 

When you get down here, check 93.7 FM in the morning.  Walton and Johnson are pretty good.  Better than any other morning show I ever heard of.

A few restaurants in Colorado Springs had them on their menus when I lived there.  I've eaten them several times.  Quite tasty, actually.

ETA: I think I even had them in Austin a time or two...

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Hmmm... that gives me an eye-deer for a fast food joint.

"The Nut Hut"

Our symbol would be twin bells.  Big round ones.  We'd hang them right over the center of the drive-thru which, of course, would be an arch with the sides painted like cow legs.

Brilliant! =D

Nope, too short to be a cop.
Thought about it though.  Getting paid to shoot at minorities?  Sign me up.  That was a typo.  I meant to say I love all people.

We kicked him out of the state for not taking them off the buffalo first.

You think just because I said 'minority' I meant blacks or Mexicans or something?
Racist.
