I spent a few years in Texas, courtesy of my Uncle, and I always
thought that there was nowhere "near" Texas. It seemed like it was a
"long way" just to get out of the place :-)

My memories of Texas include the sign on the beer joint wall "Lone
Star - $1.00 a pitcher; Foreign Beer - $1.50".

I asked the barmaid what kind of foreign beer she had and she said,
"We got Budwwiser and Schlitz" :-).

We drink Shiner Boch now.

Good stuff, Maynard!
