Okay, so that title was entirely unneeded.

I'm a texan, born and raised for 13 years, then uncerimoniously uprooted and shoved into the red glay of georgia soil.

I still definitely consider myself a Texan...no offense to Georgians, but I'm just not very comfortable here.

This probably sounds completely retarded, but for me at least, places....not just people...feel different. The atmosphere, the FEEL and experience of Georgia is different than it is in Texas. And I know from a recent trip back to Texas that it's not just childhood memories, it's real, at least for me. Every place has almost a kind of aura...the land itself is alive and has a distinct personality. Texas feels different from Georgia, both feel different from LA, and all three feel different from Ohio, to name some of the places I've been.

Okay, insane hippie-rant over.

Short answer: I'm a Texan. And as a Texan, I maintain my right to tell non-Texans they can't wear cowboy hats unless they own a horse
