Ah now, 'Spaw, you're trying to get on my good side, aren't ya? I'm glad to know that you've been to the Lone Star State -- now I know that you know how nice we are down here! Come back down for some chicken fried steak with white gravy and homemade biscuits anytime, darlin'!

And Dear Lonesome EJ -- Maybe you're lonesome because you haven't studied your history very well. I believe that Ulysses S. Grant and a lot of other folks around that time thought that Texas was a part of the South . . . And thank you, I will fold my tortilla and take it home -- and I'll wrap it right 'round some braised beef, grated cheese and salsa (no cilantro, thank you - my Daddy used to call it pissweed!!) and I'll pick up my Corona Extra (with 2 slices of lime, please) and I'll take a big ole bite and a big ole sip and say Thank you, Jesus, for making me a Texan!
