This list of rules will apply to each person as they enter
the state of
Texas.

It's called a 'gravel road'.

I drive a pickup truck because I need it.

No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on
your Lexus. Drive it or get it out of the way.

We all started hunting and fishing when we were nine years
old. Yeah, we saw Bambi. We got over it.

Any references to "corn fed" when talking about our women
will get your butt kicked ... by our women.

Go ahead and bring your $800 Orvis Fly Rod. Don't cry to us
if a flathead breaks it off at the handle. We have a name for that little 13-inch trout you fish for...bait.

Pull your droopy pants up. You look like an idiot.

If that cell phone rings while a flock of dove are coming
in, we will shoot it. You might hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.

That's right. Whiskey is only two bucks. We can buy a fifth
for what you paid for that shot in the airport.

High School Football is as important here as the Lakers and
the Knicks...and a dang sight more fun to watch.

No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order
steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. Yeah, we have sweet tea. It comes in a glass with two packets of sugar and a long spoon.

You bring Coke into my house, it better be brown, wet, and
served over ice.

So you have a sixty-thousand dollar car. We're real
impressed. We have quarter-million-dollar cotton strippers that we drive three weeks a year.

Let's get this straight. We have one stoplight in town. We
stop when it's red. We may even stop when it's yellow.

Our women hunt, fish, and drive trucks - because they want
to. So, you're a feminist. Isn't that cute?

Yeah, we eat catfish, carp, and crawdads. You really want
sushi and caviar? It's available at the bait shop.

They are pigs, cattle and oil wells. That's what they smell
like. Get over it. Don't like it? I-40 and I-10 go east and west; I-35 goes north and south. Pick one.

The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a
religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.

So every person in every pickup waves. It's called being
friendly. Try to understand the concept.

Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit in the water hazards
- it spooks the fish.

We have more Navy, Marines, Air Force and Army than any
other state, so, "Don't Mess With Texas". If you do it will get your butt kicked by the best!

Our military is only used as a back up. Per capita, each
man, woman and child owns at least two firearms and has taken a NRA Certified Shooter Education Course.

Also remember what President Sam Houston once said, "Texas
can make it without the United States, but the United States cannot make it without Texas."

Hey Bama, scroll down. Yours sounds an aweful lot like the MN one on 1-14-02. Are "they" making a version for every state now? I think I saw one for KY too. See ya...

Don't know Grasshopper, might be like that "You know you live in ___________. They are all the same, "Traffic jam. . .behind a tractor."

But, I got this one in my email, cleaned it up and posted it here. I thought it fit the description of some of the Texas guys here. :D
