Rules of Texas:
1. Pull your droopy pants up. You look like an idiot.
2. Let's get this straight; it's called a "gravel road." I drive a pickup
truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're
going to get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.
3. They are cattle & oil wells. That's what they smell like to you. They
smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-20 and I-10 go
east and west, I-35 goes north and south. Pick one.
4. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $250,000
cotton strippers that are driven only 3 weeks a year.
5. So every person in every pickup waves. It's called being friendly.
Try to understand the concept.
6. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of doves are coming in, we
WILL shoot it out of your hand. You better hope you don't have it up
to your ear at the time.
7. Yeah, we eat catfish & crawfish. You really want sushi & caviar?
It's available at the corner bait shop.
8. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a
religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.
9. We open doors for women. That is applied to all women,
regardless of age.
10. No, there's no "vegetarian special" on the menu. Order steak.
Or you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham
& turkey.
11. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats,
vegetables, and breads. We use three spices: salt, pepper, and
Picante Sauce! !Oh, yeah.... We don't care what you folks in
Cincinnati call that stuff you eat... It AIN'T REAL CHILI!! Chili was
born and bred in San Antonio.... and real chili never met a tomato!
12. You bring "coke" into my house, it better be brown, wet, and
served over ice. You bring "Mary Jane" into my house, she better be
cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.
13. College and High School Football is as important here as the
Lakers and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch.
14. Yeah, we have golf courses. But don't hit the water hazards -- it
spooks the fish.
15. Colleges? Try Texas Tech, Texas A&M or University of Texas.
They come outta there with an education plus a love for God and
country, and they still wave at passing pickups when they come for
the holidays.
16. We have more folks in the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines,
than any other state, so "Don't Mess with Texas," If you do, you will
get whipped by the best.
17. Always remember what our great governor Sam Houston once
said:
"Texas can make it without the United States, but the United States
can't make it without Texas!"
Texas is the greatest state ever!! If you are from Texas you are one bad
hombre!!! If you do not repost this in 10 min. you are not a true Texan!!!!!!
Have an awesome day, and know that someone has thought about you.
