Glad you love where you live. You can have fun just about anywhere if you decide to but I'm where I belong.
P.s. Send oranges

Not as bad as riding in 'em for 80 miles.Painting those Conestoga wagons must have been a bitch.
Just to be clear, you're willing to endure sub-standard BBQ and a discouraging lack of snow to get hammered at a high school scrimmage?
I'm just trying to frame your values so I'm not swinging blindly at a piñata when I roll up my sleeves and tackle this thread.
When I saw the title, I thought the body of the post would read: "I lost a bet".
Although having a D1 athlete sack my groceries is something I definitely lack in life.
I'm sure there's plenty of fellas in Texas willing to ass end you, but they definitely won't consider it stopping on a "dime".
This was what I was going to post last night, after I read this post:This is why allbuffs is one of my favorite sites. I regularly have co-workers wonder why I am laughing so much when no one is around.
It's like he's trying to communicate with us. I just can't understand what he's saying!!
No way he could possibly take that wrong.Don't take this wrong, but based on this thread, I'm glad you're down there.
What's air conditioning? Summer's are so awesome here all I need is an attic fan.
I long ago voted you as the Allbuffs poster most likely to like Texans.The quality of Texas is all about the stellar quality of the people of Texas. Lived there for 3 years once. A great experience that I'll never forget.

Ditto! Plus I don't miss the tarantulas, 8-inch long centipedes and scorpions that my buddy (who was forced to live there) always tells me about. Not to even mention that gawd-awful heat, mixed in/ tempered by torrential rains and regular flooding....and did I mention the bugs and spiders and other arachnids? But yeah, the high school FB is awesome......except for the sh*tty beer and lousy liquor.What's air conditioning? Summer's are so awesome here all I need is an attic fan.
FIFY!I don't think I would want to live in Texas but all kidding aside, it has some good things going for it. The people are some of the nicest people around, I did a lot of work in West Texas and cannot say enough about the people - always willing to help and after 5 minutes of meeting someone in a small town you know you have a friend, provided you go to the right church!.
Some good things - Walking along the river walk in San Antonio in Sept., Sowell's BBQ in three rivers, Padre Island, Austin almost anytime, Sailing in the Gulf. And they do have some women who are pleasant to look at. It also is one of the best place in the world to do business. If you need any industrial trade it is usually close by. I got a 200 HP electrical motor rewound over night in a town of 800 people.
To me there are worst places than Texas, H*ll comes to mind.
**** you!Having lived and traveled all around this country, one thing that is for sure is that there are mostly nice people everywhere. Some differences in how guarded or open people are that's generally tied to how fast-paced things are & the population density, but people are pretty much the same everywhere once you get to know them.

Yep I haven't been to Texas in awhile, didn't recognize my town when I was it changed a lot. My dad was right, he said it would. I might go down to one of my brother's games this fall though or we've discussed it.Wait, Luke lives in NM now, right?
Other than the BBQ and no snow
High School scrimmage tomorrow night..Cameron Yeo winners of 3 of the last 4 3A Div 1 titles. 3 rings Traion Smith..so sad he tore his ACL in the champ game would've been a 4peat. I was told to get there early or we won't get a seat..usually draws around 2,500 at a school of 418 enrollment.
They don't check hand held containers thank God..it was 102 today probably hit the trunk at 1/2 time for a refresher.
