Can we expact to see predator drones patrolling the beltway?-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

christoofar 0 #11 November 7, 2002 Quote I now Chris, I used to live in Texas.. When people asked about my strange accent, I'd just tell them I was from East Texas, which generally stopped the conversation there and then... Yes.... TX culture has very distinct divisions. My parents warned me about them: "Son, there is Texas... and then there is Austin." "Son, there is us civilized Texans, but once you see piney woods you just have to learn to accept what you see." "Son, you are much better off staying close to the border than going anywhere NEAR (insert name of any East Texas town/city here)." I guess they were right. I came up normal, even though I'm from "de-vall-ee. " ____________________________________________________________ I'm RICK JAMES! Fo shizzle. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
