  12. You realize that the Republic of Texas law (still on the books) gives Texans the right to form their own country
  13. You feel a small time horse "rancher" with a $50,000 dually and a $75,000 aluminun trailer and a $500,000 house may have earned his/her money via questionable means
  14. Fences are your God Given Right
  15. You drink water out of your yard faucet or hose (or running creek) and put bottled water in your steam iron

The way you folks talk, I thought sure this would have been #1 ;-)

In regard to #13, in this area of southeastern Missouri, that dually and aluminum trailer are much more likely to be sitting in front of a $2000 extremely well used and abused camping trailer or mobile home.

All of them fit for me except #12 and I live a long ways from Texas. But I was in Texas for a couple of weeks in 1973, does that count?

What about me... all fit but I've never laid eyes on Texas...

 

[Brad B]

Most fit me pretty well too. Our cattle trailer was made in TX, does that count??? :lol:

Around these parts the excuse is, "You can sleep in your dually but you cain't drive your house."
