When will it be?  My hubby would really love me if I told him we were going to Dallas - he is a TX boy!  I would love to meet some other clusterheads!

Wonder how long it'd take to drive from Toronto to Dallas.  I'm a candy ass and the thoughts of flying just don't do it for me!

Sure would like the chance though to meet some of you folks and put faces to the names.

July can be fun (see #7 below)....although we have discovered the concept of air conditioning

There are a few rules you might not want to forget...a few quotes from The Texas Travel Guide





Foreigner's Travel Guide to Texas

1)      Don't expect to find filet mignon or pasta primavera at the local
restaurant. It's a cafe. They serve hamburgers and chicken fried steak.  Let
them cook something they know.  If you confuse them, they'll kick your ass.

2)      Don't laugh at the names (Merleen, Bodie, Bubba, Bobby Ray, Curley,
Tammy Lynn, Billy Joe, Sissy, Clovis, etc.).  Or we will HAVE to kick your
ass.

3)      Don't order a bottle of pop or a can of soda. In Texas it's called a
coke. Nobody gives a damn whether it's Pepsi, RC, Dr. Pepper, 7-Up or
whatever - it's still a coke. Accept it.  Doing otherwise can lead to an ass
kicking.

4)      We know our heritage. Most of us are more literate than you (read
some J. Frank Dobie). We are also better educated and generally a lot nicer
than you.  Don't refer to us as a bunch of cowboy hicks, or we'll kick your
ass.

5)      We have plenty of business sense (e.g., Howard Hughes, H. Ross
Perot, Southwest Airlines, Dell computers). Naturally,  sometimes we have
small lapses in judgment (e.g., Phil Gramm) . However, we are not dumb
enough to let someone move to our state just so they can run for the US
Senate.  If anyone tried to do that they would  get a serious ass kickin'.

6)      Don't laugh at our Civil War monuments. If Lee had listened to Gen.
Hood you'd be paying taxes to Richmond instead of Washington.  If you visit
the Alamo, take your hat off and be properly humble, or we'll kick your ass.

7)      We are fully aware of how hot it gets and high the humidity is, so
shut up about it.  If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen, or
we'll kick your ass.

8)      Do not attempt to eat tamales without first removing their corn husk
casing. Everyone will instantly know that you're a Yankee. DO NOT, under any
circumstances, complain that the chili is TOO hot or contains no kidney
beans, this will get your ass kicked into next week.

9)      Don't talk about how much better things are at home because we know
they are not. Many of us have visited Northern hell-holes like Detroit,
Chicago, and DC, and we have the scars to prove it. If you don't like it
here, Delta is ready when you are. Move your ass on home -before we kick it.

10)     Yes, we know how to speak proper English. We talk this way because
we don't want to sound like you. We don't care if you don't understand what
we are saying. All other Texans understand what we are saying and that's all
that matters. Now, go away, or we'll kick your ass.

11)     Don't complain that certain areas of  this state  "smell" of  oil.
If your livelihood depended on those wells you'd soon learn to love the
aroma. Besides, None of OUR lakes or rivers have caught fire recently.  If
you whine about OUR scenic beauty, we'll kick your ass all the way back to
Pittsburgh, PA.

12)     Don't ridicule our Texas manners. We say sir and ma'am. We hold
doors open for others. We offer our seats to old folks. Such things are
expected of civilized people. Behave yourselves around our sweet little
gray-haired grandmothers, or they'll kick your ass-just like they did ours.

13)     Don't think we're quaint or losers because most of us live in small
towns.  We do this because we have enough sense to not live in crime
infested cesspools like Baltimore. Make fun of our small towns and we'll
kick your ass.

14)     DO NOT DARE to tell us how to cook barbecue. This will get your ass
shot (right after it is kicked). Criticize the barbecue and you may go home
in a pine box-minus your ass.

15)     Remember, the only reason you are lucky enough to be here in the
first place is because we have not pulled the Border Patrol off the Rio
Grande and put them on the Red River (where they really belong) to keep your
ass out.

16)     Enjoy your visit.

Yup.  Cadillac in every drive and an outhouse in every back yard.  It's true they have discovered air conditioning.  I'll just be glad when they figure out indoor plumbing.   ;;D

Backwards ass country fucks,  I can't wait!

Uh, yeah Kettle, this here's the Pot.  You're black, dude.

While all you longhorn rednecks continue to make Complete Fools of yourselves, there's still the issue of a date for DalCon. Granted, you folks like to brag about everything Texan being Big, but you just can't have the entire fucking month of July for DalCon........no matter how damned big your barbecue grill or dirty pickup truck. Somebody go over to OUCH and start a hornet's nest post of date options. IN July.....not ALL of July.

Dust suckin rednecks,
RJ
