Hello everyone,I also live in Houston and I am a self employed mechanic for the last 33 years,before that I visited the only war that the United States ever lost,but texas has always been my home base that I came back to.quisath,that was quite a narritive that you gave about texas,sure you arent in charge of the Tourist Beareu? I remember when I first went to Germany and France and people found out that I was from Texas,they wanted to know if all of us carried six guns and rode horses like they saw on the movies. When I laughed and told them no, that we had cars and big cities like Paris and Berlin, they wouldnt believe because in the movies we rode horses and had gunfights everyday. Now how can any other state beat that,yup everyone knows about Texas.
