I drove through the top part of Texas once on the way to Arizona. I was ready to slit my wrists due to the endless miles of topographic void, but I was only 16 at the time, and decided that driving for 24 hours straight had made me delusional

You must have driven I-40. Don't worry the whole state does not look like that. Thank God. That is only a small part of the state. I lived in Amarillo and hated it when I first got there, Still not to fond of it. I live south of there now and it's much better. The interesting Terrain does not start you get out of the panhandle. I was raised in San Antonio and Dallas. I think living in West Texas definiatly takes some getting used to as the climate and and terrain are total different, but as far as riding in West Texas goes its great. Especialy in and around the Cap Rock. :thumb: You have to take the bad with the good and there is nothing atractive about a cotton feild except when its full of Cotton, but the pretty parts of the state make up for the void that is around the panhandle.

Not even going to touch the college sports deal :ugg:

Smit-Dog, you have TWO! You should be the one with your state tattoed on your buttocks.

I think I know why Texans are famous for their cattle ranches- they just can't stop staring at the size of the testicles on a bull. They don't raise a lot of cattle for the money, they just like watching the bulls & cows "do it." I'll admit, I'm impressed too. And I've done more than my fair share of bull-ball-gazing. You ever wonder what percentage of their body weight is in the sack? Surely it's a higher percentage than man's.

I'm starting a petition to have New Hampshire moved from the North East. We are a red state in a sea of blue.

Yoose guys have any room near Texas for another state?

Zio your a strange man. Not any stranger that the guy that figured that after you remove them from the cow you should fry them and eat them. Calf Fries is what they are called.

Tony- speaking of mules, here's a joke I found and emailed to my brother earlier today while researching Kaw Mules; enjoy:

"An old hillbilly [insert "Texas"] farmer [insert "Rancher"] had a wife who nagged him unmercifully. From
morning til night (and sometimes later), she was always complaining about something. The only time he got any relief was when he was out plowing with his old mule. He tried to plow a lot. One day, when he was out plowing, his wife brought him lunch in the field. He drove the old mule into the shade, sat down on a stump, and began to eat his lunch.
Immediately, his wife began haranguing him again. Complain, nag, nag; it just went on and on. All of a sudden, the old mule lashed out with both hind feet; caught her smack in the back of the head. Killed her dead on the spot.

At the funeral several days later, the minister noticed something rather odd. When a woman mourner would approach the old farmer, he would listen for a minute, then nod his head in agreement; but when a man mourner approached him, he would listen for a minute, then shake his head in disagreement. This was so consistent, the minister decided to ask the old farmer about it.
So after the funeral, the minister spoke to the old farmer, and asked him why he nodded his head and agreed with the women, but always shook his head and disagreed with all the men.
The old farmer said, "Well, the women would come up and say something
about how nice my wife looked, or how pretty her dress was, so I'd nod
my head in agreement."
"And what about the men?" the minister asked.
"They wanted to know if the mule was for sale."

You said it joe, my wife still thinks that when I moved her to Dallas we moved "up-north". I doubt I'll get her any farther north than this though.

I've never touched a cow. I'm quite scared of horses. Same goes for pigs and goats. Most farm animals scare me or creep me out. I'm down with dogs, cats, and goldfish.
