what we learned in texas

vacation and texas may not normally enter the same sentence, but what better a reason to visit this strange country than for an old fashioned, down home wedding! from texas city, to galveston, to san antonio and houston, we toured much of the land and picked up a few lessons along the way…

• teeth are optional
• spitting on freeway is accomplished by moving to the fast lane of the freeway, opening your door, and hanging your head out the bottom of the door, so as not to get spittle all over the side of your ride
• butt fucker bugs – the area near the houston airport is riddled with them and they’re unmistakable, attached at the butt and unwilling to let go
• in texas bigger is better, which must be why girls with large bellies don’t feel the need to hide them by NOT wearing extra small shirts
• galveston’s favorite late night sport… parking meter pole dancing – only for those in peak physical and inebriated condition
• sublime is inescapable – this band will never die, it even lives on through cover bands in kemah tx
• irish bars are simply regular bars with an irish name – i don’t think there’s anything irish in texas
• built-in U turn lanes – apparently turning around and driving the other direction is so much of a priority, there is a special lane made just for this purpose
• sonic and whataburger – heaven on earth my friend… heaven on earth!
• san antonio – there aren’t many places to eat in downtown after 11 at night or before 11 in the morning… we found McDonalds and Denny’s!
• the padres play just as bad in Minute Maid park as they do at home
• remember the alamo!
