    Well, being someone who is obsessed with the Smashing Pumpkins, I hope to visit Chicago someday. Aside from the Metro and them.. Not much else I care for.

    The 4 youngest of George H.W. Bush's children were all born in Texas. Jeb went to UT and Neil still resides here.

    Both of W's daughters were born in Dallas.

    That's why the state of Texas is one of the most noticeable symbols in the world. That's why Texans call themselves Texans not Americans..... I never see people getting a tattoo of the state of Illinois.

    I came to Houston when I was 18 mos. I'm 38 now. I consider myself a Texan through and through but of course I'm not native born.

    you've lost your game hp.

    This wasn't meant to be a rallying call to your bbs nerds. It was a come on. A challenge. She was hoping for something more adventurous then a bbs thread and a bunch of wiki links ;).

    Do other states have mums? I remember my cousins didn't know what they were and they were from Florida and California.

    Other questions do you use ya'll in conversation?

    Can you name 5 bands of the top of your head from Texas?

    Can you name 5 people at the Alamo?

    Have you ever floated either the Comal or Guadolupe?

    Have you ever sadly drank a pack of Lone Star?

    Do you prefer DP or Coke (though sadly over the years I've become a Coke fan :( )

    Have you ever been to a rodeo?

    Have you ever done the nasty with a cowboy hat on, or in the bed of a truck?

    Have you ever owned a truck?
