That is so cool! Though I was born in Texas, as was my mom, I can trace my ancestry to France, England and Germany.

Bush is not a Texan. You can't just move somewhere and say you're from that place. If I moved to Great Britain, I couldn't say I was British could I? That always irks me.


Read what I wrote. I never said he was texan. How come he has a texan accent anyway? When his brother raised in the same house doesn't?

Hey cool a Texas thread!

I am heading to Fort Bliss on wednesday to do some training with the U.S Army dudes.

Anyone know of any cool stuff to see or do anywhere around the Area of Fort Bliss.

You'd better be careful, the Dixie Chics badmouthed him, and look what happened to them...

That certainly is a tragic story.

Yeah. They basically talked their way into oblivion. The FUTC tee was probably the final nail in their coffin. Meanwhile, Toby has his own bank...

I'd do it. I did the Biloxi to Houston thing once. That was when Biloxi had the bumper stickers that said "Beautify Biloxi, Kill an Airman".
