In my defense (or maybe not) I'm originally from Alabama. It's a great place to be FROM. Texans sure do love the fact that this state can legally secede from the USA and that it's in the states constitution that if we don't like the way things are going, we'll just go do our own thing. Lately though, it seems the Great Nation of Texas is being invaded by refugees from the Peoples Republic of California due to our large computer & electronics industries. Seems the Silicon Valley has migrated westward and landed in my back yard, or front yard, or matter of fact the whole of Austin, Texas (Round Rock too, that's where Dell is). It also seems as though those coming from that poor falling communist nation wish to push their beliefs on us. We recently had a bill passed that makes smoking in bars illegal in Austin. I don't smoke, but I do support the freedom for people who do to be able to in a friggin BAR! Pretty soon we won't be able to drink or talk in there either! Ah well, whatcha gonna do? At least my clothes don't stink when I leave the bar anymore. Hahaha
Anyways, that was completely off subject from this whole thread, but whatever...

Laters,

Brian
