Exactly. ; ) And Texas is ashamed of the Dixie Chicks too. hk (see other response below Stan's comments)

I know. Just had to respond. You understand. Circumstances forced me to. Thin skin? Like an onion. ; ) But If I didn't get angry about anything I wouldn't have very much fire running through my veins, and that would not be a good thing. Fire is a good thing. A very useful thing. And I like fires. : ) I like to start them. I like flamethrowers. And napalm. And gasoline, diesel, alcohol, methanol, lighter fluid, charcoal lighter, firecrackers, and all the accelerants. Use them everyday. Fire missiles daily. Drop bombs. Blow the other side out of the water. I like to burn things, and burn people when they need it. Nothing like a good scorching on a Friday afternoon, you what I mean?? The truth emerges from the fiery furnace. Don't like to clean up the charred remains, though . . . . Never have enjoyed that part.
