Kilgore and Longview make it different. Everything south of I-10 and west of I-35 make it better. I see what you did there. I notice that you didnt try to tell me that I was incorrect.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

The weather alone this past week has been enough for me to thank God I was born in Texas and have chosen to never leave Texas.

One program I try to watch every week is the TPWD show on KERA. Each area in Texas has its own beauty from the coastal counties, plains, caprock, desert, and the beginning of the Rocky Mountains.

Texas has few state rivals in the ecological diversity department. California, that's probably it. Texas has ecological habitat types that are not present anywhere else.

Texas has the best looking women, most rugged men, tastiest food and friendliest people. All things we can rightfully take pride in, and it ain't bragging if it's the God's truth. This guy nailed it.

I'm born and raised here. My great great grandfather and his family and other families immigrated here from Germany in 1846, wagon trained from Galveston out near Brenham, the Birth Place of Texas, and we have been ever since. That's where my pride comes from.

Everybody knows Texas? How about everybody knows New York. Everybody knows California. We are in with a bad crowd.
I like Texas but I don't doubt that people in other states feel the same about their states as we do. We do have a good economic base. The scenery here is nice but I can think of many states where I would go to in retirement if I did not have kids living in the area. Cost of living, scenery and climate figured in, Texas is nice but not at the top of the heap.

Things I notice about Texas having lived here a long time over many years.
The population demographic has changed dramatically in the last 40 years. Many more Asians and Indians who set public school standards in many cases.
Seems like there are more trucks with brush guards that never get off the pavement to use them as intended.
Certain owners of these trucks were Stetsons and Tony Lamas but have never been near a cow or horse.
Except for Big Bend, I have never encountered any real, eye-popping scenic beauty in the state.
The politicians are are just as corrupt and misguided as their predecessors.

It is easy to be exceptional in Texas if you have an average IQ.
